Storage Management Console usage Seagate provides a user-friendly interface that provides the means to configure, monitor, and manage the storage system: the Storage Management Console (SMC). Access it through a supported browser, then use it to complete initial configuration of the management host, then monitor and manage the storage enclosure.
NOTE By default, your system is loaded with self-signed certificates. You should generate new self-signed certificates on each controller, using the create certificate CLI command. Expect browser warnings about security or privacy concerns related to self-signed or untrusted certificates or invalid certificate authorities. Bypass such warnings, if you are confident of a secure connection.
TIP Use the QR code on the included Getting Started sheet to access related storage enclosure documentation online. Storage volume replication Storage volume replication is a licensed feature used for disaster recovery. It requires fibre channel (FC) or iSCSI SFP connection.
Sample cabling for the first controller enclosure: Two SFP I/O cables connect Controller 0A and two more connect Controller 0B to the left I/O switch. Two SFP replication cables connect Controller 0A and two more connect Controller 0B to the center replication switch. Sample cabling for the second controller enclosure: Two SFP I/O cables connect Controller 0A and two more connect Controller 0B to the right I/O switch.
Figure 48 Sample of single switch for co-located controller enclosures, single host server Remote replication configurations Volume replication can occur on the same physical network, or on different physical networks. For situations where you need to replicate volumes in two physically remote locations, you must still isolate input and output (I/O) traffic from replication traffic.
Figure 49 Sample of two remote sites, each with a controller enclosure, switch, and its own host server Setup storage volume replication After meeting all storage volume replication prerequisites and properly cabling the related primary and secondary system, use the command-line interface (CLI) the SMC to setup the replication feature. IMPORTANT Familiarize yourself with all replication-related content in the Storage Management Guide before you begin.
IMPORTANT Do not use this section for configured systems already interacting with production data. For the kind of assistance you need in such cases, contact Seagate for technical support. Address initial start-up issues You must successfully complete the installation tasks in the identified sequence. You must use the power cords provided with the system and install interface cables that meet system requirements.
6. Complete the following actions if the storage enclosure does not report as much capacity as expected: a. Verify you correctly installed the drive modules, and they are all latched to the baseplane connectors. b. Verify all installed drive module carriers display green LEDs, rather than fault LEDs. Refer to "Replace a 2U enclosure drive module in its carrier"...

3. Isolate the fault to one of the components in the storage enclosure. There can be a significant number of components interacting to create a viable data path, each potentially creating an issue. For example, if a host-side data error occurs, it could be hardware, such as the controller module or a faulty cable, or it could be the data host.
b. Review event logs for notifications related to hardware faults for replication data path components and follow recommended actions. c. In the Volumes topic of the SMC, select a volume name in the volumes list, then select the Replication Sets tab, manually resume any replications that are in a suspended state.
4. For still unaddressed issues, proceed to the next section and take the recommended corrective action, based on the symptom. This may mean obtaining a replacement FRU of the same type before replacing the faulty module. Take corrective action for 2U enclosures After you follow the process above and isolate the fault to an area of the storage enclosure or to a particular module, use the following chart to determine the type of corrective action you should take.
