“Ctlr Unique ID-,” then press ENT. Enter
any hex number between “0” and “FFFFF”
and press ENT to proceed.
Enter a unique ID for any RAID controller no matter it is configured
in a single or dual-controller configuration. The unique ID is
recognized by the controller as the following:
1. A controller-specific identifier that helps controllers to identify
its counterpart in a dual-active configuration.
2. The unique ID is combined to generate a unique WWN node
name for controllers or RAID systems using Fibre channel host
ports. The unique node name helps to prevent host computers
from mis-addressing the storage system during the controller
failback/failover processes.
3. MAC addresses for the controller’s Ethernet port that should be
taken over by a surviving controller in the event of controller
failure.

This submenu is only available for controllers or subsystems that
come with a real-time clock on board.
