and clusters that will be created.
NOTE: Ensure that the IP Address you choose is not already in use.
•
Subnet Mask—Provide a subnet mask for this group in IPv4 format. (for example,

10. Click Finish and then monitor the progress in the Recent Tasks panel. Before using the newly
deployed StoreVirtual array, follow the recommendations on the "Ready To Complete" section
of the wizard or see
“Completing the HP StoreVirtual VSA configuration” (page 109) .
Completing the HP StoreVirtual VSA configuration
After HP StoreVirtual VSA deployment completes:
1.
Ensure that the StoreVirtual management group is available in the HP Infrastructure.
2. Launch the StoreVirtual CMC and view the management group that was created during the
VSA configuration. The CMC allows you to perform advanced operations on the StoreVirtual
array.
NOTE: The CMC is installed on the same server as HP OneView for VMware vCenter.
3. Apply permanent VSA licenses using the CMC. Ensure that the permanent license is consistent
with the instant-on license type selected during configuration.
4. Before provisioning new storage to a host or cluster:
a.
Use the CMC to create a new a server object with the same IQN initiator name as each
vSphere that will access the new management group.
b. Use the vSphere Web Client to configure the StoreVirtual cluster’s VIP address as a
dynamic discovery target for each host’s iSCSI adaptor.
c. Refresh the cache.
