To protect from accidentally running the same command again, the satask.txt file
is deleted after it has been read.
If no satask.txt file is found on the USB key, the result file is still created, if
necessary, and the status and configuration data is written to it.
Using the initialization tool
The initialization tool is a graphical user interface (GUI) application. You must
have Microsoft Windows XP Professional or higher to run the application.
The initialization tool is available on the USB key that is shipped with the control
enclosures. The name of the application file is InitTool.exe. If you cannot locate
the USB key, you can download the application from the support website:
www.ibm.com/storage/support/storwize/v7000/unified
If you download the initialization tool, you must copy the file onto the USB key
that you are going to use.
To start the initialization tool, insert the USB key that contains the program into a
USB slot on a suitable personal computer. Run the InitTool.exe program from the
USB drive.
The initialization tool is used to create the satask.txt file on a USB key. After the
satask.txt file is created, follow the instructions in "Using a USB key" on page
176 to run the commands on the node.
The initialization tool prompts you for the task that you want to perform and for
the parameters that are relevant to that task. It prompts you when to put it in the
node canister on the control enclosure. When the commands have run, return the
USB key to your personal computer and start the tool again to see the results.
By using the initialization tool, you can set the USB key to run one of the
following tasks:
v Create a new system.
v Reset the superuser password.
v Set or reset the service IP address on the node canister on the control enclosure.
For any other tasks that you want to perform on a node canister on the control
enclosure, you must create the satask.txt file using a text editor.
satask.txt commands
This topic identifies the commands that can be run from a USB key.
If you are creating the satask.txt command file by using a text editor, the file
must contain a single command on a single line in the file. The commands that
you use are the same as the service CLI commands except where noted. Not all
service CLI commands can be run from the USB key. The satask.txt commands
always run on the node that the USB key is plugged into.
Reset service IP address and superuser password command:
Use this command to obtain service assistant access to a node canister even if the
current state of the node canister is unknown. The physical access to the node
canister is required and is used to authenticate the action.
