5.1.10 Note on server maintenance in a Multipath I/O
environment
When booting your server offline from the ServerView Suite DVD to perform an
offline BIOS / firmware update using the ServerView Update DVD or collect
diagnostic data using PrimeCollect in a Multipath I/O environment, there is a risk
of damaging the system configuration which may leave the system unable to
boot.
This is a known restriction of Windows PE with Multipath drivers.
Before using the ServerView Update DVD or PrimeCollect in an offline
environment, Fujitsu recommends to properly shut down the server and to
disconnect all external I/O connections (like LAN or FC cables) from the system.
Only keep mouse, keyboard, video cable and AC power cord connected.
