Issues Specific to CLARiiON Storage Systems

• ”Make the Management Server a Privileged User for CLARiiON” on page 386

• ”EMC Navisphere CLI Is Required” on page 386

Make the Management Server a Privileged User

for CLARiiON

Before you can provision a CLARiiON storage system, you must configure it to recognize the

management server as a privileged user. This task can be completed by using NaviCli as follows:

C:\>navicli -h 192.168.1.249 remoteconfig -setconfig -o -adduser

SYSTEM@hostname

• where

• 192.168.1.249 is the URL of the CLARiiON storage system

• SYSTEM@hostname is the name of the computer running the management server

• This example tells the CLARiiON storage system at 192.168.1.249 to accept configuration

change requests from management server running on the computer named hostname.

EMC Navisphere CLI Is Required

The EMC Navisphere® CLI is required for the management server to communicate with the

CLARiiON® storage system. At the time this documentation was created, EMC distributed the

Navisphere CLI as part of the EMC Navisphere Software Suite. Contact your EMC representative for

more information about obtaining the Navisphere CLI. Distribution rights for the Navisphere CLI

belong to EMC. EMC Navisphere CLI Is Required

In Navisphere Manager add one of the following to the privilege user section:

Management server on UNIX systems:

SYSTEM@root

where

• name_of_my_management_server is the DNS name of the computer running the

management server software
