Scenario 1 – “This is my first external storage system. What do I do?”

Initial Setup Tasks dialog box

The DS3000 Storage Manager’s Initial Setup Tasks dialog box provides step-by-step instructions on setting up a DS3000 disk system. As a task-based user interface, it provides a more obvious starting point to setting-up and managing the disk system.

The Initial Setup Tasks window offers a step-by- step process of tasks directing users to complete an initial configuration. It pops up automatically when the SMW is first brought up, or can be launched by selecting Perform Initial Setup Tasks from the summary tab of the SMW.

The steps listed as initial setup tasks include:

1.Locate the storage subsystem

2.Rename the storage subsystem

3.Set a storage subsystem password

4.Configure host access

5.Configure storage subsystem

In this scenario we will cover each step in the initial setup tasks list.
