Default Management Port Settings
By default, the storage array management ports will be set to DHCP
configuration. If the controller(s) on your storage array is unable to get
IP configuration from a DHCP system, it will timeout and revert to a default
static IP address. The default IP configuration is:
Controller 0: IP: 192.168.128.101 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Controller 1: IP: 192.168.128.102 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
NOTE:
The default gateway is not set.
NOTE:
If DHCP is not used, you must perform initial configuration of the
management station on the same physical subnet as the storage array. Also, during
initial configuration, you must configure atleast one network adapter on the same
IP subnet as the storage array's default management port (192.168.128.101 or
192.168.128.102). After initial configuration (use MD Storage Manager to manage
the ports), you can change the management station's IP address back to its
previous settings.
NOTE:
This procedure applies to out-of-band management only. If you choose to
set up in-band management, you must complete this step and then refer to "Set Up
In-Band Management (Optional)" on page 62.
You can discover the storage array automatically or manually. Choose one and
complete the steps below.
Automatic Storage Array Discovery
1 Launch MD Storage Manager.
If this is the first storage array to be set up, the Add New Storage Array
window appears.
2 Choose Automatic and click OK.
It may take several minutes for the discovery process to complete. If you
close the Discovery Status window before the discovery is complete, the
discovery process is cancelled.
