Connect to the HP VMA SAN Gateway through a terminal port, such as PuTTY.
2.
Enter Configure mode, using the following commands.
3.
Enter the
media init

name
parameter to create a more intuitive name for the container ID. In the
following example, the generated container ID is changed to FASTBOX1:
5.
Confirm that you want to initialize the HP VMA-series Array.
A message confirms that the HP VMA-series Array was successfully initialized.

This section covers how to use the
show containers
command to view existing containers.
