Start the Graphical User Interface
The Pillar Axiom Storage Services Manager is a graphical user interface (GUI) to
manage the Pillar Axiom 600 system. Access the GUI by connecting to the high-
availability IP address of the Pilot, the default of which is 10.0.0.2.
Caution
Do not connect the Pilot Management interfaces to the
customer network without checking to make sure that the
following IP addresses: 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3, and 10.0.0.4 are
not already in use on the customer network.
Note: In most instances, you must directly connect a workstation to the Pillar
Axiom 600 system to set the initial IP addresses to IP addresses that will be
available on the customer network.
1 Configure a workstation with an IP address in the range of 10.0.0.5 through
10.0.0.254, a netmask of 255.255.255.0 and a default gateway of 10.0.0.1.
2 Connect to the top Pilot Control unit (CU) and attempt to ping 10.0.0.2 and
10.0.0.3. If 10.0.0.3 responds to the ping, but 10.0.0.2 does not respond to
the ping, connect to the bottom Pilot CU and attempt to ping 10.0.0.2 and
10.0.0.4. If neither Pilot CU responds to 10.0.0.2, contact the Pillar World
Wide Customer Support Center for assistance.
3 Connect the workstation to the Pilot CU that responds to 10.0.02. Attempt
to open http://10.0.0.2 and log in.
4 Use the following values to log in:
● Login Name: administrator
● Password: pillar
5 When prompted, enter a new password.
Note: Get the password that is to be used from the
Site Preparation
Survey. Be sure that the Primary system administrator also gets this
password.
Note: We strongly recommend that you set up an additional Type 1
Administrator account when you install the system. A Type 1 Administrator
can modify account passwords without knowing the previous password for
any accounts.
Note: Do not lose the password. If you lose the password, contact the Pillar
World Wide Customer Support Center for assistance.
