Hello, All!
Is it possible to replace 2 2-unit nodes by 4 1-unit nodes?
I'm new with Dell and i just received Dell C6220 gen2 with 2 nodes (2 units each) with LSI cards with no drives attached.
I also have 4 1 unit nodes for C6220 and i'd like to replace this 2 nodes by 4 nodes and i was sure it's very easy.
Now i wounder how complicated everything in DELL world.
I can only start the system with exact nodes in exact node position. If i swap them or add one new they are all cannot start, no green LED.
If i connect via ipmi or web applitation to the node it is powered off but if i turn it on nothing happens, it is still off.
I cannot let it start, CPU are cold, no monitor output, no BIOS - nothing happens.
If i return everything back - 2 2unit nodes in their original positions - it boots notmaly, Green button, i can see bios and it tries to boot notmally.
How to start it with new nodes? I have no idea, please advice.
maybe there are some drive zoning still exists? How to clear it out to default?
Thank you!
