Following on from my two previous posts on the CLARiiON POST and troubleshooting – here’s what a CX POST looks like when viewed from SP B.

Note that the chassis and disk WWN seeds match – this is useful if you’ve moved multiple arrays (during a data centre move, for example) and didn’t take note of the SP and DPE pairings (tsk, tsk). Note also that it’s looking at disks 1 and 3 – these are the boot disks for SP B (SP A uses disks 0 and 2).

Note that you never get to a point where you can login via the serial console – it’s really only used for early diagnostics and monitoring.
