Beacon Mode; Fibre Channel (Configuration); Email Alerts (Configuration) - HP StorageWorks D2D - Backup Systems User Manual

To reset the network settings:
1.
Ensure that there are no backup or restore jobs in progress to the device.
2.
Press the Power On button on the front of the HP D2D Backup System three times in quick
succession to reset it.
After approximately 5 seconds, the HP D2D Backup System will begin its reboot sequence.
NOTE:
The HP D2D Backup System will be reset to factory networking settings and the Administrator
password will be reset to Admin. No user data will be lost. Network configuration defaults to
Single Port configuration, so you may need to edit the settings on this page.
3. After the reboot, the device will be in DHCP mode and also available for discovery using the
Installation wizard provided on the StorageWorks CD.

Beacon mode

Beacon mode flashes the LEDs on the HP D2D Backup System. It is useful if you have several HP D2D
Backup Systems on your network and want to confirm which unit is being configured.
• Click Turn Beacon On to activate beacon mode.
• If you do not switch off Beacon Mode from the Network page, it will continue for 5 minutes.

Fibre Channel (Configuration)

Email Alerts (Configuration)

This page is used to set up details of the email servers that will be used to route messages about the
HP D2D Backup System and to specify up to eight email recipients. Messages are generated if a disk
fails or reaches its threshold capacity, if the system reboots, if there are network problems or if there
is a critical hardware failure. Email alerts are also generated for tape attach activities, when there is
a separate tape drive connected to the HP D2D Backup System and the user is importing data from
it, copying or exporting data to it, or scheduling tasks to carry out these activities.
The HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), which is the
established standard for transferring mail over the internet. Microsoft Exchange has a virtual SMTP
server available which can be used to receive these emails and forward onward if necessary. UNIX
and Linux operating systems have a Sendmail program included. Sendmail uses the SMTP protocol
to receive and, if necessary, forward e-mail messages.
To configure email settings, the HP D2D Backup System must be on the same network as an SMTP
server that it can use.
