Important: If you want to use the IBM ServeRAID™ Manager program to manage the DS300 or DS400 storage subsystem, make sure that an Ethernet cable is connected to the management port on each controller. 7. Turn on the storage subsystem (see "Turning the storage subsystem on and off" in Chapter 9 of the Hardware Installation and User's Guide for instructions). Setting the controller defaults To set up the RAID controller defaults, complete the following steps: 1. After turning on the storage subsystem, wait until the green controller ready LED is lit; then, from a management station, open a Telnet session to IP address 192.168.70.123. For the location and a description of the LED, see the storage subsystem rear view section in Chapter 4 (for DS300) or Chapter 8 (for DS400) of the Hardware Installation and User's Guide. 2. Change to administrator mode by typing administrator, admin, or ad and pressing Enter. 3. When prompted for a password, enter passw0rd (all lowercase letters with a zero, not O, in passw0rd). 4. For Controller A only: At the DS300 or DS400 prompt, enter setup. The Setup wizard prompts you to enter the values for the parameters that are required to configure the system to connect to a local network. You can also use the three commands that are described in the following table. Table 1. Setup wizard commands Command Function abort Quit the Setup wizard without saving changes back Go to the previous parameter help Display the current parameter values If a parameter has a default value, the prompt displays the value in square brackets ( [ ] ). Some parameters require an arbitrary string, in which case the commands back and abort cannot be used. In these cases, enclose the string in quotation marks (""). Use the following information to assign values for the parameters: hostname Enter the name that you want to use for the system. Enter back to repeat this prompt. domain name Enter the domain to which the system belongs. SAN name Enter the Storage Area Network (SAN) to which the system belongs. timezone Enter the system time zone. system date Enter the system date in the format hh:mm@dd/mm/yy. define administrator password Define whether an administrator password is required. If a password is required, you are prompted for that password, which you must enter twice. Press Ctrl to leave the password unchanged. Press Enter twice to not require an administrator password. define operator password Define whether an operator password is required. default gateway Enter the name or IP address of a router to which packets are sent if their destinations do not have routes that are defined in the system. Enter no to clear the default gateway. 2
