Chapter 4: Installing the SVP software

The SVP software provides out‑of‑band configuration and management of the storage
system and collects performance data for key components to enable diagnostic testing
and analysis.
The SVP software can be installed on the SVP3, customer-supplied server, or on a virtual
server.
Minimum requirements for installing the SVP software on a
customer-supplied server
You can install the SVP software to be installed on customer-supplied servers or virtual
servers that meet the following minimum requirements:
Processor:
■
One core with hyper-threading, two cores without hyper-threading
●
Processor performance comparable to Celeron 1.6 GHz
●
Random-access memory: 3.5 GB per storage system
■
Hard drive: 120 GB per storage system
■
LAN connection: one 1000Base-T
■
Windows 10 Enterprise (64-bit)
■
Note: The customer-supplied server running the Windows operating system
cannot be used with the storage system if it belongs to different subnets, and
if a router or a firewall is filtering packets according to a defined condition.
There is not a limit for distance between the server running the SVP
application and storage array being managed if they belong to the same
subnet.

Configuring the operating system

Certain settings in Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2019 LTSC must be configured before
installing the SVP software.
Use Remote Desktop Connection to log on to the designated Windows server as the user
who was specified during the Windows installation (for example, Administrator). For
detailed information about configuring these settings, refer to the documentation for
your Windows operating system.
