Reset configuration
This feature is used to reset all configuration data for the director to factory default values. You must
have maintenance authorization rights to access this feature.
The Internet protocol (IP) address will reset to the factory default value during this procedure. You
may not recover the Ethernet connection between the director and HAFM appliance if you have
changed the director’s IP addressing from that default value. In this case you must reenter LAN
addressing, such as IP and gateway addresses, through a terminal attached to the maintenance
port.
Before using the reset configuration option, record the director’s current IP address, which displays
below the icon in the HAFM application’s Product View when the view’s Display Options are set to
Network Address. You can also find the current IP address through the Embedded Web Server
interface.
After resetting the configuration, reset LAN addressing to the desired values through the
maintenance port or the Embedded Web Server interface.
If you have enabled the Full Volatility feature through the director’s maintenance port, this feature
will disable when the configuration is reset.
NOTE:
Use of the maintenance port is not covered in this manual. For procedures, refer to the HP
StorageWorks Director 2/64 service manual for the Director 2/64 and the HP StorageWorks
Director 2/140 service manual for the Director 2/140.
Use the following steps to reset the configuration parameters on the director to the default values.
1.
Select Reset Configuration from the Maintenance menu. The following warning appears:
WARNING!
This operation will reset all director configuration data and nonvolatile
settings to factory default values. The director must be offline to continue.
2.
Set the director offline. For instructions, see ”
3.
To continue the reset operation, click Reset on the Reset Configuration dialog box. If you want
to cancel the operation, click Cancel.
NOTE:
If you have enabled features that add additional port function since the director
was shipped from the factory, these features will be disabled (factory default) when the
configuration is reset. Only those ports that were enabled at the factory will function. You
will have to enable the additional port function features again through the Configure Feature
Key dialog box.
