5.5 HP StorageWorks X9720 Network Storage System Administrator Guide (AW549-96026, March 2011)

• NDMP backups.
These cluster features are described later in this guide.
File systems. Set up the following features as needed:
• Additional file systems. Optionally, configure data tiering on the file systems to move files to spe-
cific tiers based on file attributes.
• NFS, CIFS, FTP, or HTTP. Configure the methods you will use to access file system data.
• Quotas. Configure user, group, and directory tree quotas as needed.
• Remote replication. Use this feature to replicate changes in a source file system on one cluster to
a target file system on either the same cluster or a second cluster.
• Snapshots. Use this feature to capture a point-in-time copy of a file system.
• File allocation. Use this feature to specify the manner in which segments are selected for storing
new files and directories.
For more information about these file system features, see the HP StorageWorks File Serving Software
File System User Guide.
Logging in to the X9720 Network Storage System
Using the network
Use ssh to log in remotely from another host. You can log in to any server using any configured site
network interface (eth1, eth2, or bond1).
With ssh and the root user, after you log in to any server, your .ssh/known_hosts file will work
with any server in an X9720 Network Storage System.
The server blades in your original X9720 are configured to support password-less ssh between them;
after you have connected to one, you can reach the others without specifying the root password
again. If you wish to have the same support for additional server blades, or wish to access the X9720
itself without specifying a password, add the keys of the other servers to .ssh/authorized keys
on each server blade.
Using the TFT keyboard/monitor
If the site network is down, you can log in to the console as follows:
1. Pull out the keyboard monitor (See “Front view of a base cabinet” on page 175).
2. Access the on-screen display (OSD) main dialog box by pressing the Print Scrn key or by pressing
the Ctrl key twice within one second.
3. Double-click the first server name.
4. Log in as normal.
NOTE:
By default, the first port is connected with the dongle to the front of blade 1 (that is, server 1). If server
1 is down, move the dongle to another blade.
