Initializing The Storage System - Dell EMC2 AX100 Series Installing Manual

Initializing the Storage System

Before You Start
AX100-Series - Installing a Fibre Channel Storage System with a Direct Connection to a Solaris Server
Read this section if you are installing a new storage system.
After the storage system is fully powered up for the first time, you
need to use the Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility to
initialize it. Initialization sets network parameters for storage-system
management and/or creates a management user account for the
storage system so you can manage it over the LAN.
To complete this procedure, you need
The completed configuration planning worksheets from Planning
Your AX100-Series Fibre Channel Storage-System Configuration in the
"Plan" section on the AX100 support website or the AX100-Series
Documentation CD.
The storage-system serial number located on a label on the back
of the chassis (see below).
HW S/N XXX 000NNNNNNNN
A static IP address for each storage processor in the storage
system (example, http://123.45.6.7).
The subnet mask of the LAN to which the storage system is
connected.
The default gateway address of the LAN to which the storage
system is connected.
A Solaris host on the same subnet as the storage system. This
requirement is for initialization only.
The AX-Series Server Support CD that shipped with the storage
system.
