5. Return to the root node by using the unselect-devcommand.

{0} ok unselect-dev

Note – At this point, there are no volumes created and the output from a probe- scsi-allcommand will not display any drives.

If no errors or issues are discovered, continue to “Creating a Bootable Array With the RAID 5 Expansion Module” on page 25 to complete the installation process. If any issues are discovered, correct them and retest the HBA before continuing.
