2 Discovery
Overview
The HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System must be assigned an IP address before an iSCSI connection
or access to the Web Management Interface can be made.
If the network has a DHCP server, the HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System will be configured
automatically with an IP address
If no DHCP server is available, the HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System must be configured
manually using the HP Discovery tool, provided on the HP StorageWorks CD-ROM
Using DHCP to discover the HP D2D Backup System
The IP address and other network settings are assigned automatically when you connect the HP D2D
Backup System to the network. You only need to know the serial number of the HP D2D Backup System
to complete the installation and create a library configuration. The serial number can be found on a
label on the top of the unit.
In the web browser type in:
D2D-<serial number>
If you cannot connect to the HP D2D Backup System using the Web Management interface:
Check that you are using a supported web browser and that Active Scripting or JavaScript is en-
abled. See the
HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System User Guide
for more information about
recommended web browser settings.
Check that the network light is on, on the front of the HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System as
this indicates an IP address has been configured.
Try connecting to the HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System using the DHCP assigned IP address
instead.
Using the HP Discovery tool
The HP Discovery tool is a java application for configuring HP StorageWorks D2D Backup Systems.
The tool can be run from HP StorageWorks CD-ROM by selecting
HPdiscovery
in the UNIX folder
or by launching it from a console as follows:
localhost:~ $ cd /media/cdrom/UNIX/
localhost:~ $ ./HPdiscovery
NOTE:
Java must be installed on the system for the HP Discovery tool to work. Java can be installed using
