Initializing the system with the technician port

To initialize the system, you connect a computer to a technician port of the node canister by using an
Ethernet cable, and then open a wizard in a supported web browser.
Before you begin
Important:
• Browser security features might prompt the user before it accepts the self-signed certificate that the
system issues.
• It might be necessary to remove old certificates that are stored in the browser before the browser
accepts the request.
• The web browser might display a warning about a potential security risk. It is safe to accept the risk and
continue.
• After the technician port physical connection is completed (that is, connected both ends), it can take up
to 45 seconds before the port is fully up and able to process requests. Submitting requests before this
interval might result in 404 error responses.
• If the http://service request in the browser causes a 404 error, or fails to produce a response, it
might be necessary to use the url https://192.168.0.1 in the browser request to connect to the
system.
If you are unable to connect to the system by using the technician port, you can use a monitor and
keyboard that are connected to the VGA and USB ports on the system to initialize the system. Complete
the following steps.
1. Access the command line by using the superuser credentials.
2. Issue the CLI command mkcluster -clusterip x.x.x.x -mask m.m.m.m -gw g.g.g.g -name name to
create the system.
