Web GUI session aborted while performing administration.

For integrity reasons, only one user is permitted in the StorEdge Web Admin at a given time. A second connection to the Web Admin will terminate the first. This implementation is necessary to allow recovery from client hangs.

How do I reset the StorEdge administrator password?

The management administrator password can only be reset via a direct connection to the StorEdge. This will require that a keyboard and display be connected to the rear of the StorEdge.

1.Access the StorEdge via keyboard or serial console.

2.Type [Enter] at the [menu] prompt and enter the administrator password.

3.Select option “K”, “Admin access” in the Access control Section

4.Enter “Y” to enable admin password

5.Enter the new password

6.Enter the new password again for verification

7.Enter “7”, “Save changes”.

StorEdge Web Admin does not work properly through a firewall.

In order for the StorEdge Web Admin to be used across a firewall, the following ports must be opened:

If using http, port 80/TCP and UDP.

If using https, port 443/TCP and UDP.

For the portmapper service, port 111/TCP and UDP

One additional port is required for Java communications; determine the needed port as follows:

The rpcinfo program can be used on a UNIX client to determine the port required by the java package. If only Windows clients are available, a third party rpcinfo utility will be required.

Run rpcinfo and search for program number 805898577. The program number is the left most column.

5310 NAS specifications

Sun Microsystems, known for its innovative computing solutions, launched the Sun 5310 Network Attached Storage (NAS) system, which marked a significant advancement in the realm of storage solutions in the early 2000s. The 5310 NAS was designed to provide high-performance, reliable, and scalable storage tailored for enterprise environments.

One of the standout features of the Sun 5310 NAS is its file-serving capabilities, which support multiple protocols, notably NFS (Network File System) and CIFS (Common Internet File System). This dual-protocol support allowed organizations to seamlessly integrate the NAS into diverse IT ecosystems, facilitating interoperability between UNIX, Linux, and Windows systems. The enhanced file-sharing capabilities made it an ideal solution for businesses with mixed operating environments.

The Sun 5310 NAS incorporates cutting-edge technologies to ensure high availability and data integrity. The system utilized a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) technology, providing various RAID levels to protect against data loss while optimizing performance. Additionally, the device featured hot-swappable drives, enabling maintenance and upgrades with minimal downtime, a crucial factor for business continuity.

Equipped with advanced management software, the Sun 5310 NAS offered users an intuitive interface for monitoring storage health and performance. This software included comprehensive reporting functionalities that allowed IT administrators to oversee usage patterns and capacity planning efficiently.

Scalability was another defining characteristic of the Sun 5310 NAS. The system could easily expand with additional storage modules, accommodating the growing needs of an organization without the necessity for complete system overhauls. This flexibility ensured that businesses could adapt their storage solutions to meet evolving data storage needs without incurring significant costs or disruptions.

In terms of performance, the Sun 5310 NAS featured high I/O throughput achieved through its robust hardware architecture and optimized file serving capabilities. This performance baseline was crucial for organizations that relied on heavy data workloads and required rapid access to information.

In summary, the Sun 5310 NAS from Sun Microsystems embodied a forward-thinking approach to network storage, blending reliability, scalability, and multi-protocol support. Its user-friendly management software, combined with the robustness of RAID technology and hot-swappable drives, made it a preferred choice for enterprises looking to streamline their storage infrastructure while safeguarding critical data.
