Installation Process Preparation
The Storage Provisioner installation process includes:
■ Fulfilling the pre-installation requirements.
■ Using the Command View HSG to allow local host setup
and to modify the host name field.
— If your Storage Area Network (SAN) includes HP
StorageWorks HSG80 Array Controllers, then use the
Command View HSG to modify the local host setup,
host name fields, and password.
— This enables Storage Provisioner to access the HSG80
controllers.
■ Installing Storage Provisioner software.
■ Adding permissions to the java.policy file on your local
computer to allow for backing up the database and
exporting provisioning data.
■ Launching Storage Provisioner.
Note: During the installation, the Storage Management Appliance
automatically reboots.

Storage Provisioner V1.1 can be installed on a Storage
Management Appliance where an evaluation version exists
