Installation VMware ESX Server installation notes How you install an AX100-series storage system in a configuration with VMware ESX Server software depends on whether you have upgraded from managing the storage system with Navisphere Express to Navisphere Manager. For a storage system managed with Navisphere Express Follow the instructions in the VMware ESX Server chapter in the EMC Installation Roadmap for CX-Series, AX-Series, or FC-Series Storage Systems with the following exceptions: Install the Navisphere Initialization Utility and Navisphere Server Utility from the AX-Series Server Support Products CD that shipped with the storage system. Follow the instructions for Linux in the Getting Started - AX100/AX100SC guide to install and run these utilities on the ESX Server Console OS (COS). Skip the step on installing admhost because SAN Copy/E is not supported for Navisphere Express. Do not upgrade the storage system to Navisphere Manager. Skip the step on installing software enablers because they are not needed for Navisphere Express. Use Navisphere Express instead of Navisphere Manager to configure the storage system as follows: 1. Create a hot spare. 2. Create one or more disk pools. 3. Create one or more virtual disks on the disk pools. 4. Assign one or more disks to the ESX Server. Use Navisphere Express to set up Event Notification in place of setting up Event Monitor with Navisphere Manager. For a storage system with Navisphere Manager Follow the instructions in the VMware ESX Server chapter in the EMC Installation Roadmap for CX3-Series, CX-Series, AX-Series, or FC-Series Storage Systems.
