Review the list of Windows Server hotfixes.
Note: If you are installing the setup manager alone, then no hotfixes are needed. However, .NET framework
requirements still apply. Hotfix requirements are mandatory for any Windows host on which the HPE Storage
Connection Manager for Windows is used to connect to array volumes.
Install the HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows on a Client
You have the option of installing the HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows on a Windows client.
Before you begin
Download the HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows from HPE InfoSight (https://infosight.hpe.com).
See Download the HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows on page 35.
The client must be running Windows OS 7 or later to install the toolkit.
Important: If you plan to install the toolkit in a Remote Desktop session or on a virtual machine, open the Command
Prompt and enter:
mstsc /console
Procedure
1. Open the Setup-Toolkit-x64.x.x.x.x.zip file and extract the Setup-Toolkit-x64.x.x.x.x.exe
installer file.
2. On the Windows client, right-click the installer file and choose Run as administrator.
3. In the Welcome to the InstallShield Wizard for the toolkit dialog, click Next.
4. In the License Agreement dialog, choose I accept the terms of the license agreement and click Next.
Important: You must accept the End User License Agreement (EULA) to install the toolkit.
5. In the Logs Directory dialog, do one of the following:
•
Click Next to accept the default log location.
•
Click Change, browse to the desired directory, click OK, and click Next.
In the Custom Setup dialog, Setup Manager is selected by default. The setup manager enables first-time setup of the
storage array.
6. Specify the Group Management IP address and the username/password credentials for the storage array. The array user
should have Power User or above credentials.
If you do not do this when you set up the toolkit, you can use the PowerShell cmdlet Set-NWTConfiguration to specify
the array credentials.
You must register at least one group. The host must be registered with the array group to enable application-synchronized
snapshot creation.

You can modify this option after clicking OK by clicking Back to return to the Custom Setup dialog.
If you deselected the Setup Manager, a message is displayed informing you that you need to explicitly select it if iSCSI
