HP Store Once Backup System 4900 Installation and Configuration Guide

TIP: If the network configuration is complex, it may take a little time for the settings to become
active. After completing the wizard use the following StoreOnce command to check progress:
net activate status
Modifying the current network configuration
NOTE: It is not possible to activate a new configuration if storage addition is in progress.
After upgrade, depending upon the initial configuration, you may wish to:
• Create a new portset to add a further subnet. This option only applies if you still have ports
available to configure as portsets after running the wizard.
• Modify an existing portset to support multiple VLAN subnets. As long as the portset for the
subnet is already VLAN enabled, this is simply a question of adding VLAN subnets to the
portset.
• Add Data-In-Flight encryption to a subnet. This option requires installation of the Security Pack
license.
• Add further IP addresses to a subnet configuration.
Best practice
The recommended best practice is:
1. Create a backup copy of the StoreOnce configuration using the StoreOnce CLI command
(config save devices. If you have the Security Pack license installed, also create a
keystore backup using the StoreOnce CLI command (config save keystore.
2. You are not allowed to modify the current configuration directly. Create a copy of the current
configuration using the following StoreOnce CLI command (<newconfig> is the name
assigned to the copied file and can be any name you choose):
net copy config from current to <newconfig>
3. Make the required modification, using the relevant parameters as described in the separate
sections below. The StoreOnce CLI commands that you use will depend upon the type of
modification that you are making, whether you are adding to or modifying a configuration.
See examples below for syntax. For more details of individual commands refer to the HP
StoreOnce Backup system CLI Reference guide.
4. Validate the modified configuration using the StoreOnce CLI command:
net validate config <newconfig>
5. Activate the modified configuration using the StoreOnce CLI command:
net activate config <newconfig>
6. Once successfully validated and activated, the modified configuration becomes the current
configuration and overwrites the contents of the current configuration.
TIP: If configuring multiple VLANs, or reconfiguring a network, it may take some time for
the configuration to complete. Use the StoreOnce CLI command, network show status,
to view status.
TIP: The writeprotect parameter is set to no by default. Once the configuration is correct
and activated, you may change the parameter to yes to prevent accidentally overwriting
configuration parameters.
