Editing the Storage Device List

If you change the storage system IP address or the maintenance password, edit the Storage Device List to reflect the change.

1. If your network uses the spanning tree protocol (STP) Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) guard on your network, perform the following Registry changes. Otherwise, skip to step 2:

   1. If you use the physical SVP supplied by Hitachi Vantara, verify the following connections.

      

      SVP LAN Port	Description
      1	Do not connect a cable to the LAN 1 port at this time. You will connect to this port after you complete the Initial Startup wizard.
      2	Connect the LAN 2 port to a Windows-based management console.
      3	The LAN 3 port is already connected to the user LAN port on controller 1.
      4	The LAN 4 port is already connected to the user LAN port on controller 2.

   2. If you use the physical SVP supplied by Hitachi Vantara, remove the cable from the LAN1 port on the SVP.

   3. Click Start Run.

   4. In the Run dialog box, type regedit, and then click OK.

   5. Go to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BridgeMP

   6. Right-click New DWORD (32-bit Value), and then type DisableSTA.

      

   7. For the DisableSTA DWORD, change the hexadecimal Value data value to 1, and then click OK.

      

   8. Restart the SVP, reconnect the cable to the LAN1 port on the SVP, and verify connectivity through the network to the SVP.

2. Using Remote Desktop Connection, access the SVP using the storage system's maintenance LAN port of 10.0.0.100.

3. In the Storage Device List window, click Stop Service. Wait up to five minutes for the service to stop.

   

4. Log on to the maintenance utility.

   

5. In the maintenance utility, click Administration Network Setting, and then click Set Up Network Settings.

   

6. Change the CTL1 and CTL2 LAN IP addresses, as required.

7. Change the properties of the network bridge to reflect your IP address, subnet, and default gateway settings.

   

8. To verify that the new LAN IP settings are appropriate for your environment, exit to a command prompt (DOS) window and ping controller 1 and controller 2 using the new IP addresses. Do not proceed until this step is successful.

9. In the Storage Device List window, click the SVP IP address setting in the top-right of the window.

   

10. Change the SVP IP address to match the new bridge IP address setting, and then click Apply.

    

11. In the Storage Device List window, click Edit.

    

12. Select the Connect Information check box, change the IP addresses for CTL1 and CTL2, and then click Apply.

    

13. In the Storage Device List window, click Start Service. At the confirmation message, click Confirm.

    

14. Using Remote Desktop Connection, access the SVP using the new user LAN IP address.

15. Open the Storage Device List window and verify that services are ready.

    

16. Verify information internet service (IIS) FTP settings.

    1. Using a maintenance PC, from the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and start Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.

    2. If the default website and the existing FTP server (including H8SRV) are registered, right-click the FTP server under Sites, and then click Delete.

       At the Confirm Remove message, click Yes. Repeat this step for the default website and other FTP servers.

    3. Right-click Sites, and then click Add FTP Site.

       

    4. For FTP site name, type H8SRV. For Content Directory, type C:\Mapp\wk\83xxxxyyyyyy\DKC200\HOME\micro. Click Next.

       The 83xxxxyyyyyy directory is created when the following storage systems are registered in the Storage Device List window:
       • 6000: VSP G800 or VSP F800
       • 4000: VSP G400, G600 or VSP F400, F600
       • 2000: VSP G200
       • yyyyyy = serial number
       

    5. For Port, type 21. For SSL, click No SSL. Click Next.

       

    6. For Authentication, select Basic. For Authorization, select All users. For Permissions, select Read and Write. Click Finish.

       

    7. From the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and start Windows Firewall with Advanced Security.

    8. In the tree in the left pane, click Inbound Rules, and then click FTP Server Passive, FTP Server Secure, and FTP Server. Right-click, and then click Enable Rule.

       

    9. If you use FTP (IIS), disable the security software. For Symantec Endpoint Protection, for example, right-click the Symantec Endpoint Protection icon on the desktop, and then click Disable Symantec Endpoint Protection.
