Setting Up the DX Object Storage

Platform

Installing the Initial Cluster or Redundant Cluster

Services Node

The Dell DX Object Storage Platform consists of at least one DX Cluster

Services Node and two DX Storage Nodes. Installation of the initial cluster or

additional Cluster Services Nodes require deployment services from Dell.

For information about setting up the hardware, see:

• the Getting Started Guide for your Dell DX6a00 system at

support.dell.com/manuals

• the Getting Started Guide for the Dell DX6axyS system at

Configuring the DX Object Storage Platform

Dell DX Object Storage Platform includes a Cluster Services Node to enable

a centralized management interface for the DX Cluster. Default settings are

defined and recommended for system operation. However, there are a number

of configuration options which may be used to configure the storage platform

which are as follows:

• Reset administrator and operator passwords for the DX Cluster Services

console

• Default object replication parameters
• Cluster name
• Port number for management console and other services
• IP parameters
• Logging options
