Chapter 5. Setting up the TSSC
The topics in this chapter describe how to install and set up the TSSC for use with
the TS7650 Appliance server. These topics include connecting the TSSC to the
server, verifying the code level on the TSSC, and configuring the Call Home,
firewall, and network communication settings for the TSSC.
Note:
For the most up-to-date information about setting up the TSSC, see

Storage Manager overview
The Storage Manager software monitors and diagnoses cache related status and
problems. The Storage Manager software is available on the ProtecTIER Manager
disk. The Storage Manager software can be installed on the same workstation as
the ProtecTIER application.
The Windows version of the DS4000 Storage Manager application is provided on
the
IBM System Storage ProtecTIER Manager V3.1.8
DVD. The Storage Manager
software is used to monitor the health and connectivity status of the disk
components, and to perform service and disk rebuilding tasks.
When extracting the .zip file, be sure to specify a target directory (such as,
C:\StorageManager...) as a destination. Accepting the default destination results in
an attempt to extract files to the CD-ROM drive (E:\) instead of to a location on
the hard disk drive, which causes an error.
Establishing a connection between the TSSC and the server
This topic describes how to establish a direct connection between a TSSC residing
outside the AP1 frame and the TS7650 Appliance server, when no KVM is available
in the frame.
If the customer purchased the TS7650 Appliance with a TSSC, skip this section and
go to “Checking the TSSC microcode level” on page 76.
About this task
Important:
If the customer purchased the TS7650 Appliance
without
a TSSC, the
customer must provide an alternative TSSC. You are required to install and
configure a TSSC and its related components along with the other appliance
hardware. Failure to do so prevents the use of Call Home or IBM remote support.
If the TS7650 Appliance is shipped without a TSSC, the TSSC resides outside the
AP1 frame. You must establish a connection between the server and the TSSC
before you can configure the communication settings of the TSSC. Use this
procedure to establish a connection between the TSSC when it resides outside the
AP1 frame and the TS7650 Appliance server.
Procedure
To establish a connection between the TSSC and the TS7650 Appliance server when
the TSSC resides outside the TS7650 Appliance frame:
