Example

Connecting to the management module (initial setup)

This topic addresses initially setting the EVA4400 storage system IP address and connecting to the

storage system management module. Once set up and connected, you can browse to the WOCP. See

also Reestablishing the storage system IP address.

Considerations

• You can

notsavechangesinthemanagementmoduleconﬁguration if the EVA4 400 storage

system is not running or has not been initialized. See Initialization and uninitialization.

• You can connect to the management module through a private or public network. See

Privat

e and public net works.

IMPORT

ANT:

HP recommends that you connect the managem ent module through a private network, or conﬁgure

it behind a ﬁrewall or proxy server.

• You will need to access the back of the storage system. The LAN c able to the managem ent

module and the reset button are on the back of the controller enclosure. The L AN connection on

the mana gem ent module is M DI-X compliant and supports straight-through or crossover Ethernet

cables (Cat 5e or better).

• You must be logged in as an HP EVA administrator to complete the procedure.

The following procedures assume that the EVA4400 storage system has already been initialized using HP

SmartStart EVA Storage or HP Command View EVA.

Procedurewhenonapublicnetwork(initialsetup)

Use this procedure when the management module is connected through a public network.
