Planning and implementing a K2 SAN with
SiteConfig
About developing a system description
You use SiteConfig to create or modify a system description for the K2 SAN. You can do this in
your planning phase, even before you have devices installed or cabled. Your goal is to have the
SiteConfig system description accurately represent all aspects of your devices and networks before
you begin actually implementing any networking or other configuration tasks.
There are several task flows you can take to develop a system description, as follows:
•
Obtain the sales tool system description. This is the system description that was developed for
your specific K2 SAN as part of the sales process. It should be a very accurate representation of
the K2 SAN that is to be installed at the customer site. Import the system description into
SiteConfig and then make final modifications.
•
Obtain a similar K2 SAN's system description, import it into SiteConfig, and then modify it until
it matches your K2 SAN.
•
In SiteConfig, use the New Site Wizard to create a new system description. The wizard has
models based on the pre-defined K2 SAN levels. You can enter much of your site-specific
information as you work through the wizard, and then do final modifications using other
SiteConfig features.
The topics in this manual follow the task flow for the sales tool system description. If you are using
a different taskflow, use the topics in this manual as appropriate and refer to the
SiteConfig User
Manual
or
SiteConfig Help Topics
for additional information.
Importing a system description
Prerequisites for this task are as follows:
•
The SiteConfig PC has access to the system description file you are importing.
•
Windows Explorer Folder Options must be set to Show hidden files and folders in order to see
all the folders containing SiteConfig files.
1. Open SiteConfig and proceed as follows:
•
If a dialog box opens that gives you the choice of creating or importing a system description,
it means SiteConfig does not have access to a system description file. Click
Import
.
•
If the SiteConfig main window opens, click
File | Import
.
The Import System Description dialog box opens.
2. Browse to and select a system description file (
*.scsd
) and click
Open
.
