The configuration options provided by the array web GUI depend on the network protocol being used. If it detects that an
array is using iSCSI, it provides a set of configuration options specific to iSCSI; if it detects that Fibre Channel is being used, it
provides a set of configuration options specific to Fibre Channel.
Note: A newly plugged-in array might not appear immediately on the array details page of the GUI. It might take up
to five (5) minutes to update the page. Refresh the browser to see the array on the page immediately after you plug
it in.
Before you begin
The Windows host that you use to initially configure the array must be connected to the same physical subnet as the array
management port and have direct (non-routed) access to the array management port.
The Windows host must have the following software installed:
.NET Framework 4.5.2 or above
HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows
Before you start, complete the Installation Checklist on page 18. You need the information from the checklist to perform the
initial GUI setup.
CAUTION: If you have multiple unconfigured arrays and you plan to add them to the same group, configure only one
array now. Later, add the remaining arrays to the group. For information about how to add an array to a group, refer
to the GUI Administration Guide or the CLI Administration Guide.
Note: Subnet and VLAN configuration are separate actions. VLANs are not supported during setup.
Procedure
1. In the Windows Start menu, choose HPE Storage > Setup Manager.
2. Select one of the uninitialized arrays from the setup manager list and click Next.
Note: If the array is not visible in setup manager, verify that the array is on the same subnet as the Windows host.
3. In the Information dialog, click OK.
The HPE Cloud Connectivity Wizard opens to guide you through the process of connecting the storage array to HPE
GreenLake.
4. In the License Agreement, read the agreement, scroll to the bottom, check the acknowledgment box, and then click Proceed.
5. In the Array Setup, choose the appropriate group option and click Next.
Set up this array but do not join a group. Continue to the next step.
Add this array to an existing group. Enter the IP address of the group.
If you chose to join an existing group, your browser redirects to the login screen of the group leader array. Refer to
the GUI Administration Guide or the CLI Administration Guide for steps on how to add an unconfigured array to a
group, and complete the configuration.
