HP StorageWorks EVA Web-based Operator Control Panel 1.0 user guide (5697-7492, July 2008)

Considerations

• Youcannotsavechangesinthemanagementmoduleconﬁguration if the EVA4400 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

Private and public net works.

IMPORTANT:

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.

Procedure when on a public network (reestablishing the IP address)

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

IMPORTANT:

When your LAN is part of a public network, HP recommends that you temporarily disconnect from the

public network while performing this procedure.

1. If currently connected, disconnect the public network LAN c able from the ba ck of the management

module in the controller enclosure.

2. Press and hold the recessed Reset button for 4 to 5 seconds then release it. This sets an IP address

of 192.168.0.1 in private add ress space. The amber indicator on the top right corner of the LAN

connector (Ethernet jack) will ﬂash mom entarily when the reset operation is completed.

IMPORTANT:

If the IP address saved in memory has been lost, you cannot browse to the WOCP until you perform

this step.

1. LAN connector 2. Reset button 3. Management module

3. Do one of the following:

• Temporarily connect a L AN cable from a private network to the m anagement module.

• Temporarily conne ct a laptop computer directly to the management m od ule using a LAN

patch cable.
