	2. Use the following credentials to log in:
	•	Username: root
	•	Root password: procurve
	The following prompt is displayed:
	ProCurve DCM(localhost):~#
C a u t i o n	When you log in as root, you have all rights to the DCM Controller’s operating

system. Be extremely careful: misconfigurations can cause the DCM Control- ler to malfunction. ProCurve recommends that you have some experience with Linux systems before completing these steps. (However, if you need a list of basic Linux commands, see “Common Linux Commands” on page B-3 in Appendix C: “Safety and EMC Regulatory Statements.”)

3. Enter the following command:

ProCurve DCM(localhost):~# initialize.pl

4. The script will prompt you for DCM Controller parameters. When prompted, enter the IP address you configured through either the LCD menu or the console interface. For example:

Please enter the IP address of this device: 192.168.20.2

5. When prompted, enter the DCM Controller’s Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). For example:

Please enter the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of this server: myDCM.com

Let the initialization script continue to execute. When it is finished, proceed with step 9.
