Setting up the NH1 K2 Media Server for Nearline
Setting up the NH1 K2 Media Server for Nearline
If your system has one or two NH1 K2 Media Servers, prepare each server using this
section.
The Dell PowerEdge 1950 is qualified as the platform for the NH1 K2 Media Server.
Do the following to prepare a NH1 K2 Media Server:
• Install the server in its permanent location. Refer to the rack mount instructions that
you received with the server’s product bundle.
• Provide power to the server.
• Connect cables as follows:
One NH1 K2 Media Server on a N10 system
Two NH1 K2 Media Servers on a NL10R system
Connect the motherboard GigE port 1 (control) and GigE port 2 (FTP) to control
ports on the GigE switch. For the NL10R system, connect server A to GigE
switch A and connect server B to the GigE switch B.
Connect Fibre Channel ports to the RAID storage device. For the NL10 system,
connect one Fibre Channel port to the RAID controller. For the NL10R system,
on each server connect one Fibre channel port to controller 0 and one Fibre
channel port to controller 1.
• Assign a control network IP address to GigE port 1. Use standard Windows
procedures. Refer to
“Networking tips” on page 106
.
• Change the hostname. Use standard Windows procedures.
• Configure SNMP properties so the trap destination points to the NetCentral server
PC. Use standard Windows procedures. If you are not using the SNMP community
name “public”, configure the community name and set permissions to RW. Also
make sure that the Authentication trap is enabled.
