This brief sign-in discussion assumes proper web browser setup.
IMPORTANT: For detailed information about accessing and using the SMC, see the "Getting Started" section in the
web-posted Storage Management Guide.
In addition to summarizing the processes to configure and provision a new system for the first time—using the
wizards—the Getting Started section provides instructions for signing in to the SMC, introduces key system concepts,
addresses browser setup, and provides tips for using the main window and the help window.
TIP: After signing-in to the SMC, you can use online help as an alternative to consulting the Storage Management
Guide.
Configuring and provisioning the storage system
Once you have familiarized yourself with the SMC, use the interface to configure and provision the storage system. If you
are licensed to use the optional replication feature, you may also need to set up the storage systems for replication. Refer
to the following topics within the Storage Management Guide or online help:
•
Getting started
•
Configuring the system
•
Provisioning the system
•
Using the optional replication feature
NOTE: See the Storage Management Guide for instructions about creating a temporary license, or installing a
permanent license.
IMPORTANT: If the system is used in a VMware environment, set the system's Missing LUN Response option to use its
Illegal Request setting. To do so, see either the topic about changing the missing LUN response in the Storage
Management Guide, or see the CLI set advanced-settings command topic in the CLI Reference Guide.
