Running the Navis
phere Storage System Initialization Utility
You can start the s
torage system initialization utility from the server
on which it is inst
alled or from the server support CD. The storage
system initializ
ation utility has two methods for executing commands
— a command line i
nterface that can be scripted, or a text-based utility
that cannot be sc
ripted.Beforecontinuingmakesurethatthestorage
system is power

Note: Before using the Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility, make
sure that you know the static IP addresses for the storage system SPs (for
example, http://123.45.6.7 and 123.45.6.8), the subnet mask, and the default
gateway address. For storage system initialization, connect the server from
which you are running the utility and the storage system to the same network
subnet, Once you have assigned an IP address to the storage system, the server
and storage system can be on different subnets.
