Changing Passwords; Configuring Ports For A Firewall - HP StoreAll 8800 Administrator's Manual

Changing passwords

You can change the following passwords on your system:
Hardware passwords. See the documentation for the specific hardware for more information.
Root password. Use the passwd(8) command on each server.
StoreAll software user password. This password is created during installation and is used to
log in to the GUI. The default is ibrix. You can change the password using the Linux passwd
command.
# passwd ibrix
You will be prompted to enter the new password.

Configuring ports for a firewall

IMPORTANT:
during scheduled maintenance times.
When configuring a firewall, you should be aware of the following:
SELinux should be disabled.
By default, NFS uses random port numbers for operations such as mounting and locking.
These ports must be fixed so that they can be listed as exceptions in a firewall configuration
file. For example, you will need to lock specific ports for rpc.statd, rpc.lockd,
rpc.mountd, and rpc.quotad.
It is best to allow all ICMP types on all networks; however, you can limit ICMP to types 0, 3,
8, and 1 1 if necessary.
Be sure to open the ports listed in the following table.
Port
22/tcp
123/tcp, 123/upd
5353/udp
12865/tcp
80/tcp
443/tcp
5432/tcp
8008/tcp
9002/tcp
9005/tcp
9008/tcp
9009/tcp
9200/tcp
2049/tcp, 2049/udp
1 1 1/tcp, 1 1 1/udp
875/tcp, 875/udp
32803/tcp
32769/udp
892/tcp, 892/udp
To avoid unintended consequences, HP recommends that you configure the firewall
