Dell PowerVault MD3220i - Manual (Page 42)

42 Post Installation Tasks
• Automatic Discovery—Automatic discovery queries the local
sub-network for all iSCSI-based storage arrays and may take several
minutes to complete.
• Manual Discovery—Manual discovery allows you to locate
iSCSI-based storage arrays that are outside of the local sub-network.
Manual discovery requires selecting whether your storage array has a
single controller (simplex) or dual controllers (duplex) and whether to
use IPv4 or IPv6 protocol for communicating with the management
port of the storage array.
5 The next screen presents a list of the iSCSI-based storage arrays that were
discovered based on the discovery process selected in step 3.
If you select
Automatic Discovery, the screen displays a list of all the
iSCSI-based storage arrays that were discovered in the subnet.
If you select
Manual Discovery, then the list contains only the arrays
whose IP addresses were entered. You can add additional arrays to the list
by clicking the Add button on this screen.
You can also remove the arrays from this list by using the Remove button.
You can click Blink Array to start the blinking of the array’s front panel
LED in order to locate the array physically and ensure it is the array you
intend to configure. Click Stop Blinking to stop the blinking of the array
before you proceed.
Select the array by clicking the radio button of the corresponding storage
array and then click Next.
6 Enter the name of the storage array and the password.
If you want to set a new password for the array, select Set Password and
then enter the new password in the New Password and Confirm New
Password fields. Click Next to continue.
7 Select the IP protocol (IPv4/IPv6) to be used by the management port. Also,
for each protocol, select whether the configuration of the management port IP
addresses is to be done manually or automatically. For more information, see
the online help.
Click
Next to continue after you has finished selecting the protocols and
the configuration method.
