Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual (H06.16+, J06.05+)
2 Quick Start
The installation of the CLIM is a service procedure; therefore, some basic configuration tasks have
been performed.
• Two CLIMs are connected to the NonStop host system.
• Management facilities OSM and SCF are installed and configured on the NonStop host system.
• CIP subsystem components are installed on the NonStop host system.
• CIP subsystem components are installed and configured on the CLIM.
• NonStop system and CLIMs are powered up.
• CLIM interface to the dedicated service LAN is configured.
A CLIM has been added for the dedicated service LAN.◦
◦ Two maintenance Providers are configured for the dedicated service LAN. (These serve
the NonStop host system and all the CLIMs.)
• The CIPMAN and CIPMON processes have been configured and started.
If your service provider has not already done so, change the default passwords on your CLIMs to
secure your environment. The iLO and eth0 interfaces have passwords.
CAUTION: Best Practice: You should always back up the configuration files after changing any
configuration information. For information on how to perform a backup, see “Managing the CLIM
Configuration Preservation” (page 114).
Default Processes and Naming Conventions
The CLIM comes with the software pre-installed. To upgrade the software, see “Performing an
Online Upgrade of the CIP Subsystem on the NonStop Host” (page 133).
The CLIM and attached storage devices have the default naming conventions shown in Table 4:

are always dependent on their X fabric

name of N1002532, you can determine
this information about it:
• it is an IP CLIM
• its X1 connection point is c7000

• its Y1 connection point is c7000
