Adding new disks to a standard mirrored system
3
The procedure in this section adds new disks to a system that is already 
mirrored. In order to use this procedure, your assigned boot disks must 
be the same as those assigned during a factory installation of disk 
mirroring. If your boot disk assignments differ from the standard factory 
arrangement (see the table immediately below), you must add the disks 
using the procedure in 
New 
Enterprise 3000 internal disks are “hot swappable,” meaning they 
can be inserted into a running system. The operating system, however, 
will not recognize the new disks until the system has been rebooted.
1. Enter the command:
Examine the output for the status of each metadevice. (It’s indicated 
in the
 Status:.... 
line.) All metadevices must have a status 
of
 okay 
before you may proceed. Do not attempt this 
procedure while any metadevice is resynching or needs 
maintenance.
2. Do a CMSADM backup. For detailed instructions, see the Lucent 
Technologies Administration or Upgrades document for your version 
of CMS.
3. Turn off CMS:
a. Enter a 
cmsadm 
or
 cmssvc 
command.
b. Select the 
cms_run
 option.
c. Select the 
Turn off cms
 option.
4. Halt the system:
5. Install the new disk drives by plugging them into the appropriate 
empty drive slots. Follow the instructions you received with the disk 
drives or with your basic system, or see the Lucent Technologies 
installation or maintenance document for your version of CMS.
