Preparing for Basic Configuration

Structure of the StoreOnce guide

This guide assumes that the user has followed the instructions on the printed Start Here poster to install
the HPE StoreOnce System in the Data Center and establish an initial 1 GbE network connection for the
StoreOnce Management Console.
IMPORTANT:
All tasks described in this guide require an admin user logon.
The guide is divided into two sections. The first section is task based and describes how to log in to the
StoreOnce GUI to complete basic configuration tasks. The second section provides reference information
for the hardware and physical connection to Ethernet or Fibre Channel.

Overview of StoreOnce configuration tasks

Table 1: Configuration checklist
Task
1 The Start Here poster describes a basic installation
with connection to LAN port 1, which is valid for all
products. Make sure you understand what is
factory installed and configured on your system
and any further cabling requirements. Available
options for network and Fibre Channel connectivity
will depend upon the type of model.
2 Make sure all reference material is available.
3 StoreOnce 5500 only: Review SAS cabling
requirements.
4 Boot up the system and, if you are using a Network
Management application, such as Insight Remote
Support, configure iLO. (You can also configure
iLO after configuring the StoreOnce System.)
5 Log on to the StoreOnce Management Console
and check system, storage and optional hardware
status.
6 Configure licenses.
7 Configure time zone and NTP server.
8 Configure users.
