9.5.01 HP P4000 SAN Solution User Guide (AX696-96168, February 2012)

Automatic login
Once you have logged in to a management group, additional log ins are automatic if the same
user names and passwords are assigned. If management groups have different user names or
passwords, then the automatic log in fails. In that case you must log in manually.
1. Enter the correct user name and password.
2. Click Log In.
Logging out of a storage system
1. Select a storage system in the navigation window.
2. Right-click, and select Log Out.
NOTE: If you are logged in to multiple storage systems, you must log out of each storage system
individually.
Changing the storage system hostname
The storage system arrives configured with a default hostname. Use these steps to change the
hostname of a storage system.
1. In the navigation window, log in to the storage system.
2. On the Details tab, click Storage System Tasks and select Edit Hostname.
3. Enter the new name, and click OK.
4. Click OK.
NOTE: Add the hostname and IP pair to the hostname resolution methodology employed in your
environment, for example, DNS or WINS.
Locating the storage system in a rack
The Set ID LED turns on lights on the physical storage system so that you can physically locate that
storage system in a rack.
NOTE: The Set ID LED is available depending on the storage system.
1. Select a storage system in the navigation window and log in.
2. Click Storage System Tasks on the Details tab and select Set ID LED On.
The ID LED on the front of the storage system is now a bright blue. Another ID LED is located
on the back of the storage system.
When you click Set ID LED On, the status changes to On.
3. Select Set ID LED Off when you have finished.
The LED on the storage system turns off.
Powering off or rebooting the storage system
Reboot or power off the storage system from the CMC. Set the amount of time before the process
begins, to ensure that all activity to the storage system has stopped.
Powering off the storage system through the CMC physically powers it off. The CMC controls the
power down process so that data is protected.
Powering off an individual storage system is appropriate for servicing or moving that storage
system. However, if you want to shut down more than one storage system in a management group,
you should shut down the management group instead of individually powering off the storage
systems in that group. See “Safely shutting down a management group” (page 117).
