Configuring the iSCSI client on the K2 Dyno PA

To enable the Browse feature on the K2 Dyno PA application to work with a K2 Summit SAN
system, the K2 Dyno PA machine must be configured as an iSCSI client. You use the K2
Configuration application wizard to configure each of the K2 Dyno PA machines on the Media
(iSCSI) network. For more information on the K2 Configuration application, see the K2 Summit
documentation.

1. On the Control Point PC, open the K2 Configuration application.

2. At the login dialog box, log in with the correct administrator account. By default this is as follows:

User name —

administrator

Password —

adminK2

The K2 System Configuration application appears, displaying a hierarchy of machines with the
K2 Summit SAN at the top, followed by the GigE switch, and then each of the K2 Dyno PA
machine clients.

3. If you need to add another K2 Dyno PA client to the hierarchy:

a) Select the server and click

Add Device

.

b) In the Add Device window, click iSCSI Client and click

OK

.

A new iSCSI client device gets added to the hierarchy.

4. Select the iSCSI client to be configured in the hierarchy view and click

Configure

.

5. At the Client Configuration - Page 1 screen, enter the machine name of the K2 Dyno PA client

you are configuring (such as Client1) and click

Next

.

6. At the Network Configuration screen, click

Modify

to change the IP address and subnet of any

network adapters for this machine, and then click

Next

.

7. At the File System Client Configuration screen, enter the drive letter you want to configure as

the iSCSI drive on the K2 Dyno PA machine; click

Next

.

8. At the iSCSI Initiator Configuration screen, enter client bandwidth:

a) Click

Modify

.

b) Enter the total bandwidth requirement for this K2 Dyno PA client machine.
c) Click

Assign TOE

.

CAUTION: To avoid bandwidth usage issues, assign the K2 Dyno PA machine to a
TOE that does not have a K2 Summit client.

9. Click

Next

.

10. At the Completing the Configuration Wizard screen, click

Finish

.

The wizard closes and the K2 Dyno PA machine reboots.

11. Repeat this procedure for each K2 Dyno PA machine on the K2 network.

12. Proceed to Enabling SNFS for the DLC or iSCSI client on the K2 Dyno PA.
