I'm trying to setup Fibre Transport for the first time. I'm running
NBU 7.0 with 1 master server and 2 media servers, all running RHEL
5.0. I've got the 7.0 SAN Client Guide up and I'm on page 34
"Configuring an FT media server".

Small problem.

Step 1 says "Ensure that the HBAs are not connected to the SAN."

My OS in running on internal storage, but I built a LUN on the SAN and
presented it to each system and mounted it as /usr/openv so I could
dynamically grow the disks if need be. If I disconnect all my HBAs
from the SAN, I lose access to the partition where NBU is running
which means I can't run the commands to setup FT.

Do I need to tear down my NBU installation, mount /usr/openv on
internal storage, reinstall NBU, and then rerun the FT setup commands?
