15 Configure Storage networks in PowerStore Manager This chapter includes the following information. Topics: • Create Block-optimized Storage networks in PowerStore Manager • Create NAS networks in PowerStore Manager • Optionally, add the File Import Interface in PowerStore Manager Create Block-optimized Storage networks in PowerStore Manager Once you have configured the ToR switches for Storage networks, you will need to create the Storage networks in PowerStore Manager. This topic describes how to configure the iSCSI, NVMe/TCP, and Replication and Block Import networks in PowerStore Manager. For steps to configure networks for Network Attached Storage (NAS) networks, see Create NAS networks in PowerStore Manager. Get the completed Network configuration worksheet for Storage services. The following Network configuration worksheet for Storage services has been completed with the network resources used in this guide. If you did not configure the Top-of-Rack switches with the resources used in this guide, you can complete a new Network configuration worksheet for Storage services with the information relevant to your environment. To download a blank worksheet see Network configuration worksheet for Block-optimized Storage services (blank). Once you have configured the Cluster network on the switch, Cluster network configuration is automated in PowerStore Manager, and no further action is required. Only one network can be tagged for Replication in PowerStore Manager. By default PowerStore Manager tags the Default storage network as the Replication network. You can change the Replication network tagging in PowerStore Manager at any time. Table 40.

If you are deploying into a single VLAN, ensure that you configure a unique subnet for the Management and each Storage network. Use the same VLAN IDs that were used to configure your Storage networks on the switch. Configure Storage networks in PowerStore Manager 89
