When you order a stand-alone system, the factory cables it according to your
instructions. All internal adapters, such as networking adapters, Fibre Channel
adapters, and other adapters, arrive preinstalled in the nodes.
For information about factory cabling of an HA pair and the cabling that you
need to perform to complete the process, see the Data ONTAP High Availability
Configuration Guide or the Data ONTAP Active/Active Configuration Guide.
Attention
An HA pair is not cabled or configured for Multipath Storage by default. If you
want to use Multipath Storage, you must set a specific environment variable for
the gateway before cabling and configuring the nodes for Multipath Storage. See
"Configuring the gateway environment variable for Multipath
page 71 for information about the environment variable that you need to set. See
the Data ONTAP High Availability Configuration Guide for cabling and
configuration requirements for Multipath Storage.
The following table shows the factory default setup of a gateway ordered with
disks.
The factory default is...
Data ONTAP software is installed.
Installed on the disk shelf. The root volume is a FlexVol volume named vol0.
You can resize it later, if desired.
Installed
Licenses for protocols and features that you purchased might have been
installed—for example, licenses for CIFS, NFS, and HTTP. After setting up
your system, you can add any additional licenses that you need.
