Chapter 7. Planning your DS8000 storage complex setup
During installation, IBM customizes the setup of your storage complex based on
information that you provide in the customization work sheets.
Each time you install a new storage unit or management console, you must
complete the customization work sheets before the IBM service representatives can
perform the installation.
The customization work sheets allow you to specify the initial setup for the
following items:
v Company information
v
Management console network settings
v Remote support (includes call home and remote service settings)
v
Notifications (includes SNMP trap and email notification settings)
v Power control
v
Control Switch settings
Important: IBM service representatives cannot install a storage unit or
management console until you provide them with the completed
customization work sheets.
Company information
The company information work sheet allows you to specify any company
information that enables IBM service personnel (or your service provider) to
contact you as quickly as possible and to access your storage complex.
This information includes the following items:
v General company information, such as company name and telephone number
v
Administrator contact information
v
Storage complex location and modem numbers
You must complete this work sheet for all installations that include a management
console. See Appendix C, “Company information work sheet,” on page 193.
Management console network settings
The management console network setting work sheet enables you to specify the IP
address and LAN settings for your management console.
The management console network settings include the following items:
v
Management console network identification
v
Ethernet settings, if you want the management console to connect to your LAN
v DNS settings, if you plan to use a domain name server to resolve network
names
v
Routings, if you want to specify a default gateway for routing
Note: IBM will attach your LAN after the storage complex is installed and in
operation.
