Redundant Controller
10-21
Power-off controller 1, and then power on
controller 2. Set controller 2 to "Autocfg" as
described previously. Power off controller 2.
When the redundant controller function is set to
the "Autocfg" setting, the controllers will decide
between themselves which will be the Primary
controller. If you need to specify a particular
controller as Primary or Secondary, do not set it
as "autocfg;" choose "Primary" or "Secondary"
instead. Please refer to the following section for
more detail.
Redundant Configuration Using Manual Setting
Power on controller 1. Make sure controller 2 is powered-off.
