After installation completes and the server (or servers if deploying a cluster) reboots, you are
automatically logged on as the local administrator. The default password is
HPinvent!
. You
are not prompted to change the password. If you are deploying a cluster, continue to work
only with the server on which you used the Setup Windows Wizard.

Register SMI-S provider (cluster configuration)
If no provider is registered, register the SMI-S provider using the registration tool. You are prompted
for the IP address of the array and registration credentials. A secure (HTTPS) connection is used
to connect to port 5989 on the array. If a different protocol is required or a different port is
configured on the array, the SMI-S registration must be performed at an elevated PowerShell
command prompt. For more information, see the storage array documentation.
Registering the SMI-S provider automatically updates the operating system storage provider cache.
This operation might take several minutes. You can manually update the cache by entering
PowerShell commandlet
update-storageprovidercache –discoverylevel full
at an
elevated PowerShell prompt. After registering the provider or if a provider is already registered
on the system, the other provider registered is displayed in the ICT window.
Register SMI-S provider (standalone profile)
SMI-S is a storage standard that enables management of the heterogeneous storage vendor systems.
You can configure a StoreEasy system as SMI-S Client to manage your SAN disk arrays. The
File
and Storage Services
option in Windows Server Manager can take advantage of SMI-S providers,
providing a GUI interface for managing the basic array functionality.
To register SMI-S provider on HP StoreEasy 3000 Storage:
1.
Open an elevated PowerShell command prompt.
2.
Enter the following commands for HTTP and HTTPs SMI-S provider:
1.
Register-SmisProvider -ConnectionUri http://<ipaddress of the
storage array>:<port-no>
.
NOTE:
For HTTPs port SMI-S provider, enter
Register-SmisProvider
-ConnectionUri https://<ipadress of the storage array>:<port-no>
.
