 Install - Step 9

Register your storage system

The Storage System Registration Wizard sends site and configuration information to  
your service provider. We strongly recommend that you run the wizard now as 
follows: 

1. Verify that the client is connected to both the storage system and to the Internet.

2. If the Unisphere Service Manager (USM)  is not open, start it now. After logging in 

to your system, select the 

Registration

 tab and click 

Register Storage System

 to 

start the Storage System Registration Wizard.

3. Follow the wizard prompts to complete the registration.

 Install - Step 10

What next?

We recommend that you set up either the iSCSI or the Fibre Channel environment 
and confirm its error-free operation before setting up the second environment.

The first set of instructions, beginning on the next page, describes how to 
install the storage system in an iSCSI environment. 

The second set of instructions, beginning on page 53, describes how to 
install the storage system in a Fibre Channel environment.
