SSR / Customer:
• Ensure that the management switch is in the rack and powered on.
• Ensure that there is one Ethernet cable from the management switch (if there are VLANs, connect from
the xCAT/management VLAN) to port 1 (management port) on each canister as shown in Figure 3.
• If an EMS node was received with ESS 3000, connect two Ethernet cables from the management switch
(if there are VLANs, connect from the xCAT/management VLAN) to port C10-T1 (top port) and to port
C10-T2 (second from top).
SSR: General guidance
• For each ESS 3000 canister in the flow (see Chapter 4, “Installing,” on page 39), connect your laptop
point-to-point to the Service Port as shown in the Figure 34 on page 64. You need to use this port to
access each canister, perform hardware checks, and set the management IP address.
• For the EMS, connect your laptop point-to-point to C10-T4 and use the instructions in the “Elastic
Storage System 3000 installation (SSR task)” on page 51 to log in, perform the hardware checks, and
set the management IP address.
Reference:
• Canister 1 (top) SSR service port has a default IP address of 10.0.0.102
• Canister 2 (bottom) SSR service port has a default IP address of 10.0.0.101
• SSR user ID is ‘essserv1’
• SSR default password is the ESS 3000 serial number
– Add ‘B’ for top canister
– Add ‘A’ for bottom canister
• Other than the SSR access port, there are no default IP addresses set on any node
• All management interfaces should be connected to the same VLAN switch
• Default physical EMS ports
– C10-T1 = Management Interface (will be set by the SSR)
- Logical port enP3p9s0f0
– C10-T4 = FSP interface. Default IP of 10.0.0.1. SSR needs to connect laptop to this port when
performing the EMS tasks
- Logical port enP3p9s0f3
• Default physical ESS 3000 ports (per canister) (see Figure 34 on page 64)
– Port 1 – Management port (will be set by the SSR)
- Logical port enp29s0f0
