2.2.2.2 Setting Parameters on the 3510s

The following procedures configure the 3510 hardware (minnows) after rack installation.

To Set an IP Address on 3510s

Steps

1. Connect serial ports to laptop and launch hyperterminal or connect from a terminal on a Solaris system.

2. When prompted with menu driven program, select vt100 mode.

3. Navigate to “View and Edit configuration parameters”, then select Communication Parameters and Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).

4. Enter the IP address and netmask that you have assigned to the computer.

5. Exit the serial connection and make sure you can now telnet from the management station. Once this is established all configuration will done through the command line interface

To Configure the 3510s

Steps

1. Download the latest version of command line interface SUNWsccli package and install it on the management station.

2. Run the following command to connect to the 3510 with an interactive prompt:

   # sccli amer-minnow-01 sccli: selected se3000://172.31.0.141:58632 [SUN StorEdge 3510 SN#084DCD]

3. Set Chassis ID on each controller and JBOD as shown in Figure 2–1 and verify you can see all disks by running show disks command.

4. Verify the following parameters:

   Controller parameters	redundancy mode	active-active
   	redundancy status	enabled
   Drive parameters	auto-global-spare	enabled
   Host parameters	fiber connection mode	point-to-point (SAN)
   	controller name	amer-minnow-nn
   Cache policy	mode	write-back
   	optimization	sequential

5. Gather the WWNs of the minnows and add them to zones accordingly:
