AM456-9025A HP VMA SAN Gateway Installation and Configuration Guide 21
All global cluster parameters are defined on the master node, and are automatically inherited by
additional nodes as they are added to a cluster. The following chart lists the master or standalone
node parameters for which the configuration wizard prompts you.
Public interface name This specifies the Ethernet port that is used for specific gateway
management. If only a single Ethernet cable will be used to
connect the Gateway node, then eth1 should be used. If both eth1
and eth2 will be cabled to the network, then they should be bonded
as eth0, and eth0 should be used as the public interface. For more
information, see the
Redundant Gateway Pairing Process Guide.
Public interface IP address The public interface IP address for the individual gateway.
Note:
DHCP is not recommended.
Public interface netmask The public interface netmask.
Global Default gateway The Default Gateway is set on a per-node basis.
DNS server name(s) Specify a primary and, optionally, a secondary DNS server.
DNS Domain name The name of your local domain.
Hostname A local hostname for the HP VMA SAN Gateway.
Admin password Setting a password is highly recommended.
Timezone Set the clock timezone by specifying the zone and subzones. (Use
"?" to display zone names interactively.)
NTP server Optional and recommended.
Email notification
recipients, mail hub, & port Set recipients to
callhome-hp@vmem.com
for HP Customer
Support and at least one email alias for your company, in a
comma-separated list.
Enable HP support Set autosupport to
yes
to ensure proper handling of support
issues.
Cluster interface name The interface for internal vCLUSTER traffic. In a single Gateway,
this is eth1. A VLAN can be used instead with a redundant
gateway configuration to separate vCLUSTER multicast traffic
from management traffic. If using a VLAN, the cluster interface
name is based on the VLAN ID. For example, if you use VLAN
#14 then the cluster interface name is “vlan14”. In a dual-cabled
Gateway (in which both eth1 and eth2 are used) without a VLAN
being used, then the eth0 bonded interface should be specified for
the cluster interface name, refer to the
Redundant Gateway Pairing
Process Guide
for profile configuration.
