Chapter 4: Operational and maintenance
considerations
Proper operation and ongoing required maintenance continues the reliability of the
storage system and its constant availability to all connecting hosts.

Network access

External Fibre Channel or Ethernet cable connections are completed at the time of
installation.
These connections are required to:
Establish connections from the controllers to the host computers.
■
Connect the storage system to the network, enabling storage system management
■
through Hitachi Command Suite or Hitachi Storage Advisor.
Allow communication to the storage system from the SVP.
■

TCP/IP port assignments

When you install your storage system, default ports must be opened to allow for
incoming and outgoing requests.
Review the following ports before you install the storage system to avoid conflicts
between the TCP/IP port assignments used by the storage system and those used by
other devices and applications.
