15. Select Session in the Category list, and click Save in the PuTTY Configuration
window to save the settings for the session you configured.
16. On the PuTTY Configuration window, click Open to establish a connection to the
management server, and log in with username service and password Mi@Dim7T .
Note the following:
• If the connection fails to open, ping 128.221.252.3 (the LAN port on your
laptop) to verify intercomponent communication. If the ping is successful,
ping 128.221.252.2 (the service port on the management server).
• The default Linux shell prompt for username service is
service@ <current_working_directory> .
17. From the Linux shell prompt, type the following command:
Note:
You can enter long Linux and VPlexcli commands faster by using the Linux tab
feature. If you start typing a command, pressing Tab at any time fills in the command
automatically, up to the point where the command might no longer be unique.
/opt/emc/VPlex/tools/ipconfig/changehostname.py -n <hostname>
where <hostname> is a name for the management server, such as Cluster1 . This
name replaces the default name ( service ) in the shell prompt the next time you
open a PuTTY session to the management server
18. From the shell prompt, type the following command, to verify connectivy to
director 1-A:
ping 128.221.252.35 -c 5
Note that -c 5 sets the number of pings to 5.
19. Repeat step 18 once for each director in the cluster, substituting the applicable
address shown in Figure 35 on page 51 .
