Creating an Administrator and Starting the Management Service
By default, Adaptec Storage Manager includes only one user account, the
Administrator (which allows full access to your IP SAN and all Adaptec Storage
Manager features). You use the Administrator user name and password to log into
the Management Service.
To set up the Administrator account and start the Management Service, as root:
1
Enter this command:
/opt/asm-mgmt/sbin/setup
2
When prompted, press
Enter
to select
admin
as the Administrator user name.
3
When prompted, enter a password for the Administrator. When prompted, re-
enter the password.
Linux shuts down and restarts the Management Service.
