Accessing The Storwize V7000 Unified Management Gui; Using Fix Procedures - IBM Storwize V7000 Unified Series Problem Determination Manual

Accessing the Storwize V7000 Unified management GUI

This procedure describes how to access the Storwize V7000 Unified management
GUI.
You must use a supported web browser. Verify that you are using a supported web
browser from the following website:
www.ibm.com/storage/support/storwize/v7000/unified
You can use the management GUI to manage your system as soon as you have
completed the USB key initialization.
1. Start a supported web browser and point the browser to the management IP
address of the file module.
The management IP address is set during the USB key initialization.
2. When the connection is successful, you see a login panel.
3. Log on by using your user name and password. The default user name is
admin.
4. When you have logged on, select Monitoring > Events.
5. Ensure that the events log is filtered by using Recommended actions.
6. Select the recommended action and run the fix procedure.
7. Continue to work through the alerts in the order suggested, if possible.
After all the alerts are fixed, check the status of your system to ensure that it is
operating as intended.
If you encounter problems logging on the management GUI or connecting to the
management GUI, see "Problem: Unable to log on to the storage system
management GUI" on page 191 or "Problem: Unable to connect to the
management GUI" on page 190.

Using fix procedures

You can use fix procedures to diagnose and resolve problems with the Storwize
V7000 Unified.
For example, to repair a Storwize V7000 Unified system, you might perform the
following tasks:
v Analyze the event log
v Replace failed components
v Verify the status of a repaired device
v Restore a device to an operational state in the system
v Mark the error as fixed in the event log
Fix procedures help simplify these tasks by automating as many of the tasks as
possible.
Many of the file module fix procedures are not automated. In these cases, you are
directed to a documented procedure in the Storwize V7000 Unified Information
Center.
The example uses the management GUI to repair a Storwize V7000 Unified system.
