The physical network ports provide three network configuration modes. • Single Port Configuration: The HP StoreOnce Backup system is connected to one network; only one network port is used (Port 1). • Dual Port Configuration: The HP StoreOnce Backup system is connected to two different networks. Both network ports are used. • High Availability (Bonded) Configuration: Both network ports are used, but the two ports are bonded to provide port failover. This mode also provides load balancing across the two network ports The default network configuration is single port with DHCP enabled. This can be amended after installation using StoreOnce CLI net config commands. If dual port configuration is required, the networks must be on different sub-nets. The High Availability mode is the recommended option, because it provides port failover, but both network ports must be connected to the same switch and it must support port bonding.

StoreOnce CLI Management Console The StoreOnce Command Line Interface (CLI) provides an alternative way of administering and monitoring the system. Some tasks, such as network and storage configuration, can be carried out only from the StoreOnce CLI. StoreOnce CLI commands must be run from an SSH terminal session and require an SSH client application (freely available from the internet) running on the management console. See the HP StoreOnce CLI Reference Guide for more information. Accessing the Web or StoreOnce Management Console If DHCP is enabled on your network, simply connect to the Web Management Console or StoreOnce CLI from any machine connected to the network using the default host name printed on the top of the appliance. Enter your user name and password. Web: https: or StoreOnce CLI: ssh @ If DHCP is not enabled on your network, connect a console to the monitor and keyboard ports on the rear of the appliance and log in to the StoreOnce CLI to configure the appliance on the network. See the HP StoreOnce Installation and Configuration Guide for more information. NOTE: If you will be configuring Virtual Tape Library devices as backup targets, install all the required Tape drivers on backup servers and ensure the backup server is running software that supports HP Tape libraries. Tape drivers can be found on the StoreOnce Backup CD. Drivers are not needed for NAS Share and Catalyst Store backup targets.

Power On
1.
Power on the HP StoreOnce Backup system (the power button is on the front of the unit).
2.
As long as DHCP is enabled on the network, the appliance should now be accessible
across the network. If it is not enabled, you must use StoreOnce CLI commands to
configure the appliance on the network.
Power Off
To power off your HP StoreOnce Backup system always use the StoreOnce CLI commands,
as described in the
HP StoreOnce CLI Reference Guide
on the HP StoreOnce Backup CD.
NOTE:
When installing/replacing a hot-plug device, it is not necessary to power
down the units.
Further information about networks
NOTE:
The HP StoreOnce Backup system does
not
support the IPv6 protocol.
The physical network ports provide three network configuration modes.
Single Port Configuration:
The HP StoreOnce Backup system is connected to one
network; only one network port is used (Port 1).
Dual Port Configuration:
The HP StoreOnce Backup system is connected to two
different networks. Both network ports are used.
High Availability (Bonded) Configuration:
Both network ports are used, but the two
ports are bonded to provide port failover. This mode also provides load balancing
across the two network ports
The default network configuration is single port with DHCP enabled. This can be
amended after installation using StoreOnce CLI net config commands.
If dual port configuration is required, the networks must be on different sub-nets.
The High Availability mode is the recommended option, because it provides port failover,
but both network ports must be connected to the same switch and it must support port
bonding.

If DHCP is enabled on your network, simply connect to the Web Management Console
or StoreOnce CLI from any machine connected to the network using the default host
name printed on the top of the appliance. Enter your user name and password.
Web:
https: <ip_address>
or
<Fully_Qualified_Domain_Name>
StoreOnce CLI:
ssh <username>@ <ip_address>
If DHCP is not enabled on your network, connect a console to the monitor and keyboard
ports on the rear of the appliance and log in to the StoreOnce CLI to configure the
appliance on the network. See the
HP StoreOnce Installation and Configuration Guide
for more information.
NOTE:
If you will be configuring Virtual Tape Library devices as backup targets,
install all the required Tape drivers on backup servers and ensure the backup server
is running software that supports HP Tape libraries. Tape drivers can be found on the
StoreOnce Backup CD. Drivers are not needed for NAS Share and Catalyst Store
backup targets.
