To each storage system, the utility sends the server s name and IP address. Once the server has storage on the storage system, the utility also sends the device name and volume or file system information for each virtual disk in the storage system that the server sees.

STEP 5. Click Finish to exit the utility.

Running the Navisphere Server Utility on a Linux Server

STEP 1. On the server, run the utility by entering

/opt/Navisphere/bin/naviserverutilcli

If the Server Utility does not discover the storage system, the storage system may still be rebooting. When the reboot is complete, the SP Boot/Fault light on the back of each SP is off and not blinking. If the reboot is complete, try running the utility again.

STEP 2. In the Server Utility, enter 1 to select Update Server Information. The utility automatically scans for connected SSR212PP-Series storage systems, and displays a list of the ones it finds.

STEP 3. In the Server Utility, enter u to register the server with each storage system the utility found.

The utility sends the server s name and IP address to each storage system. Once the server has storage on the storage system, the utility also sends the Linux or device name and volume or file system information for each virtual disk in the storage system that the server sees.

STEP 4. Enter c (cancel) to stop the utility.

Verifying HBA Registration

STEP 1. Start up Navisphere Express. See Procedure 29, "Running Navisphere Express," on page 163.

STEP 2. In the Navisphere Express navigation pane, under Manage, click Connections to display the Manage Connections page.

STEP 3. Verify that the SP/Port status is Active for each HBA, NIC or iSCSI HBA connected to the storage system.

If the status is Active (unregistered), register the HBA, NIC or iSCSI HBA with the storage system by running the Navisphere Server Utility.

If the status is Inactive, either the physical connection between the HBA, NIC or iSCSI HBA and the storage system is faulty or the storage system is not powered up. Go the "Troubleshoot" section on theSSR212PP support website or the SSR212PP- Series Documentation CD.
