Initial Configuration, Connecting with the
Network
Before the ETERNUS CS800 is operational, you must configure the system through the
setup wizard. You must also connect the ETERNUS CS800 with the network and configure
your backup software (in case of OST usage also see ETERNUS CS800 OST Guide).
Configuring the ETERNUS CS800 consists of the following steps. See the following
subsections for detailed instructions for completing each step:
"Switching on the System" on page 107
l
"Connecting the Notebook with the Server" on page 109
l
"Running the Getting Started Wizard" on page 110
l
You will need a notebook and an Ethernet cable to do the initial setup.
CAUTION!
If you attempt to install multiple ETERNUS CS800 systems at the same time, an IP
address conflict can occur because each system is configured with the same default
IP addresses (10.1.1.1 for the system and 10.17.21.199 for the iRMC). To avoid this
problem, install one system and configure it to use a different IP address before you
connect another system to the network.

2. Press the power button of the server (see figure
