Chapter 4 Configuring the Array
Using the Remote Setup Wizard to Configure the Array

The Remote Setup Wizard is located on the Host Integration Tools CD-ROM. The Host Integration Tools
User

where the PS-M4110 array is located. This means that a blade server in the same chassis will have a NIC port
that is intended to be an iSCSI initiator port. This NIC port must be on the same physical fabric and also have an
IP address configured on it with the same subnet that the PS-M4110 array is on.
