Setting The Ip Addresses Of The Iscsi Ports From The Command Line; Interface - IBM TotalStorage DS300 Best Practices Manual

The setup wizard is the same for a TotalStorage DS300 and DS400. Only the
available management ports will be defined. When no alternate controller is
available, the questions for peer IP, subnet mask and gateway will not be shown.
Note: The iSCSI interfaces for TotalStorage DS300 1701-1RS and 1701-2RD
must be set with commands from the CLI or from the ServeRAID manager.
See 4.4.2, "Setting the IP addresses of the iSCSI ports from the command line
interface" on page 80 or 4.4.3, "Setting iSCSI port IP addresses from
ServeRAID Manager" on page 87 to define the iSCSI interface network
addresses.
The TotalStorage DS300 1701-1RL has only one ethernet port. This port is
shared for management purposes and iSCSI traffic. The network settings for this
port are defined with the setup wizard. It is not possible to set this IP address
from an ServeRAID Manager console.
4.4.2 Setting the IP addresses of the iSCSI ports from the command
line interface
After the management port interfaces are configured by the setup wizard, the
network addresses of the iSCSI interfaces can be configured from the command
line interface. it is not required to connect to both controllers. The IP settings can
be performed from connection to only one controller. the controller is specified by
a letter A or B behind the network interface. For example the ETH2 of controller B
is ETH2[B].
1. Re-establish a Telnet session to one of the management ports of the
TotalStorage DS300. Logon with administrative rights. To do this enter
administrator and press enter. Default password of the administrator is
PASSW0RD with a zero instead the letter O. Depending on the firmware level
on the TotalStorage DS300 controller the password might be lower case or
upper case. When a password for the operator is applied, as this is the default
during the execution of the setup wizard, this password has to be entered.
See Figure 4-5 on page 81.
