Attention: The default service IP addresses on your new Storwize V7000 Unified
control enclosures might conflict with existing devices that are attached to the
network or with other new control enclosures that you are installing. The service
IP address 192.168.70.121 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is preconfigured on Ethernet
port 1 of the upper canister, canister 1. The service IP address 192.168.70.122 subnet
mask 255.255.255.0 is preconfigured on Ethernet port 2 of the lower canister,
canister 2.
If you encounter that situation, change the service IP addresses on the new nodes
before connecting the Ethernet cables. For details, see "Initialize the Storwize
V7000" on page 41 or see the IBM Storwize V7000 Troubleshooting, Recovery, and
Maintenance Guide PDF on the DVD for further information about setting service IP
addresses using a USB key.
Perform the following steps:
1. For each node canister in the control enclosure, connect an Ethernet cable
between Ethernet port 1 of the canister and the Ethernet network.
Note: Ethernet cables are not supplied as part of your order. A CAT 5
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) is the minimum requirement for an Ethernet
cable.
