By using the initialization tool, you can set the USB flash drive to run one of the
following tasks:
v Create a new system.
v Reset the superuser password.
v Set or reset the service IP address on the node canister on the control enclosure.
For any other tasks that you want to perform on a node canister on the control
enclosure, you must create the satask.txt file using a text editor.
USB memory key has incorrect gateway address information
If the link on the InitTool panel to the management GUI does not work, the USB
key may have an incorrect gateway address.
About this task
The InitTool.exe may indicate that the initial setup was successful, however, the
link on the InitTool panel to the management GUI may not work. Given this
scenario, it is possible that you have entered a management gateway IP address
that is in the same subnet as the management IP address but is not the IP address
of the gateway for this subnet. To check this, look inside the satask.exe file on the
USB flash drive and note the IP address after the -gw switch. Make sure this IP
address is the gateway for this subnet. If an IP address is needed then check this
with your 1 Gbps Ethernet administrator.
If you did enter the wrong IP address for the gateway of this subnet and you have
the correct gateway IP address ready, then it is possible to re-configure the control
enclosure and file module to use the correct management gateway IP address.
If you have access to a computer that is plugged into the same Ethernet switch as
the 1 Gbps Ethernet port 3 of each file module and the 1 Gbps Ethernet port 1 of
each node canister in the control enclosure, then you may be able to ssh from it to
the management IP address and log on as admin.
In this example, the default password is admin:
ssh admin@<management IP address>
Use the lssystemip CLI command to show you the current management IP address
setting on the control enclosure:
[kd52v6h.ibm]$ lssystemip
cluster_id
00000200A9E0089E ifscluster-svt2 local
00000200A9E0089E ifscluster-svt2 local
If this command fails because the file module could not ssh to the control
enclosure then refer to Troubleshooting > Getting started troubleshooting >
Installation troubleshooting > Problems with initial configuration from the
Problem Determination Guide.
Use the chsystemip CLI command to change the managed gateway IP address
setting on the control enclosure. (This must be done first before you change the
management gateway IP address setting on the file modules):
[kd52v6h.ibm]$ chsystemip -gw 9.71.16.1 -port 1
