STEP 4: Array Initialization and Configuration

This section describes the process used to initialize and configure the array for use in a Microsoft Windows
environment.

Array Initialization

This section will describe the step-by-step process of using the Management Client Initialization Wizard to
initialize the array. Array initialization is only required for newly deployed arrays. Previously deployed arrays
moved to a new network or location should be reconfigured as if an array initialization process has already been
performed, by configuring logical disks and pools as described on page 35 of this guide.
If the array is being used with an FC switch, the switch should be configured before starting this step, so that
the array can connect with any application servers for the host information gathering process. Ensure that all
application servers are operational and connected to the switch and/or array before beginning the initialization
process.
1. Start Internet Explorer and navigate to
the management server's network
address and port (default port 8070). If
the server has an associated DNS entry,
navigate to that address in the browser
window. If the server is only identified by
an IP address, navigate to that address.
Note: If the client browser cannot
connect to the Storage Manager host
over the network, make sure that the
management server is attached to the
network, the Storage Manager service is
running, and that any intervening
network firewalls or client firewalls have
a rule that permits UDP port 2730 traffic
to pass through.
2. Log in to the Storage Manager client
with a previously created user name
that has administrative privileges.
