The MSC Is No Longer Bootable or Able to Connect to the FC Network

Situation:

The MSC is no longer bootable or able to connect to the FC network.

Resolution:

You must reassign a Backup Master as the new MSC from the Backup Master.

Warning Use this procedure only if the MSC cannot relinquish control to a Backup Master. For example, if the MSC is no longer bootable or able to connect to the FC network. Under any other circumstances, if the Backup Master takes over as the MSC and the MSC is still running or comes back online later, there will be two MSCs for the same security configuration. This will eventually lead to corruption of the security configuration.
