Hello Peter,
A build the IODF and dynamicary ACTIVATE (or Re-IPL) is required after
changing the OFFLINE setting. POR is not required in this case change.
Will this be a good idea to add these devices in COMMDxx ?
I don't think this is necessary...
Best regards,
Toyokazu Kobayashi

Hello
This will require a POR ? We dont have a scheduled downtime for next 2
months.
Will this be a good idea to add these devices in COMMDxx ?

Hello Peter,
Check the OFFLINE setting in IODF's Define Device Parameters.
If the value is "Yes", change to "No".
