Accessing Universal Management Services

After you have installed the Advanced Appliance Configuration console application, the following steps will take you to the point where you can administer the appliance.

1.Start the Advanced Appliance Configuration console application by clicking its icon.

2.On the left pane of the Advanced Appliance Configuration console, select the appliance you want to administer. Initially, the appliance will be named IBM5194-serial number, which is located in the lower right corner of the bezel on the front of the appliance.

3.Click the Start Web Management button at the bottom of the right pane of the Advanced Appliance Configuration console to start the Universal Manageability (UM) Services browser. This will open a separate Web browser.

To read more information on the Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility, see “IAACU Console” on page 10.

1.You will be prompted to authenticate with administrative user name (“Administrator”) and password (initially “password”, but you will need to change this later).

If this is the first time you have accessed the UM Services browser (on any appliance) from this workstation, you will also be prompted to install the Swing and XML Java libraries in your Web browser.

2.The UM Services browser will start. In the left pane, Microsoft Windows 2000 for Network Attached Storage will be automatically selected, on the Appliance tab. In the right pane, Windows 2000 for Network Attached Storage will start.

3.Again, you will be prompted to authenticate with administrative user name (“Administrator”) and password (initially “password”, but you will need to change this later).

4.Click Administer this server appliance to bring up the Microsoft Windows 2000 for Network Attached Storage GUI.

You are now ready to begin administering the appliance. Details for this task are described in “Initial setup and configuration”.
