Hi,
I have been using equallogics for 5 years now, and have never had a group of more than one array. I am tasked to set up the following within a single M1000e chassis.
I am getting very confused by the group setup and now because I don't know which steps are only used one time.
So far I have the normal setup for the first array: - step 1 -
- Once in the CMC right click on the Storage to open up the Storage initialization gui .
- Member Name : SAN01
- Member IP: 192.168.102.10
- Member Gateway : 192.168.102.254
- Group Name : SAN
- Group IP Address: 192.168.102.11
- Group Memebersip Password :groupadmin
- Group Admin password: groupadmin
Now SSH into the CMC (or telnet if you prefer), - step 2 -
$ connect server-15
Telnet escape character is '^\'.
Trying 169.254.31.15... Connected to server-15.
Escape character is '^\'.
PS Series Storage Arrays

>member select SAN01
(array1)>eth select 1
(array1 eth_1)>ipaddress 10.10.10.31 netmask 255.255.255.0
(array1 eth_1)>up
(array1 eth_1)>exit
(array1)>grpparams
(array1(grpparams))> management-network ipaddress 10.10.10.30
(array1(grpparams))>exit
This concludes the setup for the first array. Now to add the 2nd array which steps are duplicated and which are left out?
Do I need to complete the grpparams setup on that 2nd array? And if so am I supposed to use the same IP address as the first one. or a different one (is each array its own little group)? I am not sure how to think about this. i appreciate your help.
