Install - Step 6
Initialize and enroll the storage system
If you do not have or do not wish to use internet connectivity to continue the storage-system
installation, you can use the Interactive Installation Guide (IIG) CD to initialize, enroll,
upgrade, and register the system.
To use the IIG, insert the CD in a server connected to the same subnet as your storage system.
From the guide home page, select I

system.”
Use the Unisphere Initialization Utility, which replaces the Navisphere Storage
System Initialization Utility, to configure the management network interfaces for the
storage system’s SPs. Initializing allows you to manage the system over the LAN with
Unisphere or Navisphere software.
After you initialize your system, you can enroll for access to software downloads
