Post Installation Tasks
Before using the Dell PowerVault storage array for the first time, complete these initial configuration tasks in the order
shown. These tasks are performed using the MD Storage Manager.
1. For out-of-band management, you must set the network configuration for each RAID controller module, including its
Internet Protocol (IP) address, subnetwork mask (subnet mask), and gateway.
NOTE: You can set the network configuration using a DHCP server.
2. Launch MD Storage Manager.
– Click Start

Microsoft Windows operating systems.
– Click the PowerVault MD Storage Manager desktop icon on Linux operating systems.

command prompt:
cd /opt/dell/mdstoragesoftware/mdstoragemanager/client./SMclient
3. Go to Setup
→
Add Storage Array and start the automatic discovery of systems in the Enterprise Management
Window (EMW).
NOTE: Only storage arrays configured with IP address on the same subnet as the management stations will be
detected.
NOTE: It may take several minutes for the discovery process to complete. Closing the Automatic Discovery
Status window before this stops the discovery process.
After discovery is complete, a confirmation screen is displayed.
4. Click Close.
Verifying Storage Array Discovery
The Automatic Discovery option automatically discovers both in-band and out-of-band arrays and adds the storage
arrays to the management domain. If the out-of-band or in-band connections shown on the summary page are not
accurate, complete the following steps. For more information, see the Online Help.
1. Check the hardware and connections for possible problems.
For specific procedures on troubleshooting interface problems, see the Owner's Manual at support.dell.com/
manuals.
2. Verify that the array is on the local subnetwork. If it is not, using MD Storage Manager, manually add the storage
array to the subnet.
3. Verify that the status of each storage array is Optimal.
4. If any array shows an Unresponsive status, complete one of the following steps:
– To remove the array from the management domain, select the array, right-click and click Remove
→
Storage Array.
