Connecting to the management module (initial setup)

This topic addresses initially setting the HP P6000 EVA storage system IP address and connecting to the HP P6000 management module. Once set up and connected, you can browse to the HP P6000 Control Panel. See also Reestablishing the storage system IP address.

Considerations

You cannot save changes in the HP P6000 management module configuration if the storage system is not running or has not been initialized. See Initialization and uninitialization.

You can connect to the HP P6000 management module through a private or public network. See Private and public networks.

IMPORTANT: HP recommends that you connect the HP P6000 management module through a private network, or configure it behind a firewall or proxy server.

You will need to access the back of the storage system. The LAN cable to the HP P6000 management module and the reset button are on the back of the controller enclosure. The LAN connection on the HP P6000 management module is MDI-X compliant and supports straight-through or crossover Ethernet cables (Cat 5e or better).

You must be logged in as a storage administrator to complete the procedure.

Restrictions apply. See Management module IP addresses.

The following procedures assume that the HP P6000 EVA storage system has already been initialized using HP P6000 SmartStart or HP P6000 Command View.
