Version 6.

CSA installation worksheet

Complete the worksheet and use this information to install using the Celerra Startup Assistant (CSA). Download the latest version of the CSA from the Celerra Tools section of Powerlink. Getting Started with the Celerra Startup Assistant can be downloaded from Powerlink and provides more information on the CSA pre-conguration and provisioning processes. Note: If you are installing the Celerra on an IPv6 network, do not use the CSA. The technical module Conguring and Managing Celerra Networking discusses networking for both IPv4 and IPv6. The CSA pre-populates values based on auto-discovery from your Windows client. Shaded elds below are values that will be auto-discovered based on your system and network environment; if auto-discovery fails, you need to provide the information manually.

1. Record the appropriate Control Station public LAN settings.

Field Primary hostname Primary IP address (For second Control Station only) Secondary hostname (For second Control Station only) Secondary IP address Netmask Gateway DNS domain Primary DNS server Secondary DNS server NTP server Time Zone

Value

2. The passwords for the root user/system back-end administrator and NAS administrator are default factory values and should be changed as soon as possible for security reasons. The passwords can be changed during the CSA installation process or later, from within Unisphere.

root_password (default value = nasadmin) NAS Administrator (default value = nasadmin)

3. The appropriate blade public LAN settings are auto-discovered.

DNS domain Primary DNS server Secondary DNS server NTP server
Note: These settings apply to all primary blades.

4. Record the storage processor public LAN IP addresses. Note: Public IP addresses for your storage processors are required for use with the Navisphere Service Taskbar for routine array maintenance and upgrades. In addition, for Celerra systems where Navisphere licenses are in place, Navisphere can be used to manage storage for external host connectivity, and the Celerra. However, we recommend users manage Celerra storage using the Provisioning wizard capability within the CSA or within Unisphere. The IP addresses must be on the same subnet as the Control Station.

SP A IP address SP B IP address
5. If applicable, congure service provider/customer notication information. Note: The dial-in modem number is the phone number for the line that connects to the modem. This is the local number that is used by the service provider to dial into your system. Note: Email will not work without a DNS server.

Service provider/ customer notication Site information

Email Server (recommended) Recipient Email Addresses (optional) Site ID (optional) (party name) Dial-in Modem # (optional)

6. Check the boxes of the licenses that you have purchased.

CIFS (Windows) NFS (Linux) iSCSI

At this point, the installation and pre-conguration portions of CSA are complete.

CSA Provisioning Worksheet

Complete this worksheet and use the information here to provision storage, create an NFS export, create an iSCSI LUN, create a CIFS (Windows) share, or set up your MPFS system (for MPFS-supported systems only) using the Celerra Startup Assistant (CSA). Note: The Conguration wizards can be launched and used as often as necessary to provision storage, to create an NFS export, create an iSCSI LUN, create a CIFS (Windows) share, and set up your MPFS system (for MPFS-supported systems only).

Provision unused disks

If you want to provision storage using the CSA, complete this section. Storage provisioning involves creating RAID groups and LUNs.

Network Conguration

Blade name IP Address to be assigned to the newly-created interface Netmask address MTU (optional; default is 1500) VLAN ID (optional; default is 0)

Network Device

Network device name Create and use new network device Network device settings Device name Ports

Provisioning of the storage available through the Celerra depends on individual site requirements. You can perform provisioning via the CSA Provisioning Wizards or Unisphere. You can also add additional storage and perform additional provisioning later. For more information, see Step 5. Congure for Production on Celerra Tools.

Create NFS export
If you want to create an NFS (UNIX/Linux) export using the CSA, complete this section.

Blade name Export name Allocate storage from (select from dropdown) Export size (MB, GB, or TB) Host access read-only export Read-only hosts Read/Write hosts Root hosts Access hosts

Create/Attach iSCSI LUNs

If you want to create an iSCSI LUN or attach to an existing LUN using the CSA, complete this section.

Local host IP address Remote IQN (if remote host is selected) Blade name iSCSI target IP address iSCSI target name Allocate storage from (select from dropdown) iSCSI LUN number iSCSI LUN size (MB, GB, or TB) Number of expected Snaps Number of expected Promotes

Create/Attach CIFS share
If you want to create a CIFS (Windows) share or attach to an existing CIFS share using the CSA, complete this section.

Blade name Share name Allocate storage from (select from dropdown) Share size (MB, GB, or TB) Local drive NTP server Blade default gateway CIFS server domain (Windows NT4, Windows 2000 and Windows 2003) DNS server IPs (Windows 2000 and Windows 2003) Domain admin user name (Windows 2000 and Windows 2003) Domain admin password (Windows 2000 and Windows 2003) Organizational unit (Windows 2000 and Windows 2003) Workgroup (Standalone) Local admin password Interfaces Set up MPFS (MPFS-supported models only)
If you want to set up an MPFS system using the CSA, complete this section. You must create an MPFS storage pool corresponding to a system-dened storage pool.

System pool name Number of stripe members Capacity for provisioning Pool name
Note: There must be at least one MPFS storage pool and at most three MPFS storage pools.
