Problem: Control enclosure is not detected

If a control enclosure is not detected by the system, this procedure can help you resolve the problem.

When you install a new control enclosure, use the Add Enclosures wizard in the management GUI. To access this wizard, select Monitoring > System. If the management GUI detects a new control enclosure, click Add Enclosures and complete the wizard.

If the control enclosure is not detected, check the following items:
  • The enclosure is powered on.
  • The enclosure is not part of another system.
  • At least one node is in candidate state.
  • If your system uses Fibre Channel, ensure that all cables are connected and zoning is set up according to the zoning rules. There must be a zone that includes all ports from all node canisters.
