Configuration guidelines
When working with network configurations the following guidelines apply:
•
There are two fixed configuration names reserved for the system that cannot be used:
Factory_Default_Configuration
and
current
.
•
There may be up to 16 configurations on any StoreOnce Backup system, but only one can
be active.
•
Filenames are alpha numeric.
•
There are three stages to applying a new network configuration: create the configuration,
validate the file and activate the file. All are carried using StoreOnce CLI commands, as shown
in the worked examples below.
•
Once a file is activated, it becomes the current file. There can be only one current file.
•
Once you have finished creating a configuration and whenever you modify a configuration,
be sure to use the StoreOnce CLI to create a configuration save and restore file.
•
Refer to the HP StoreOnce CLI Reference Guide for the full range of network and save and
restore commands. This guide only describes those commands that should be used for initial
configuration.
Portsets
The portset is defined first and a subnet is then configured to use that portset.
For single port connections, the portset contains just one port. However, for bonded connections,
a portset is a configuration of ports and bonding mode.
