Chapter 3. Configuring an N7000 series system
This chapter describes how to configure an N7000 series system in the following
topics:
v
“Configuring the N7000 series system”
v “Configuring the Fibre Channel port”
v
“Configuring and using the RLM” on page 19
Configuring the N7000 series system
Refer to the completed configuration worksheet for your storage system. The
configuration worksheet is provided in the
Data ONTAP Software Setup Guide for
your version of Data ONTAP. This guide, as well as other Data ONTAP
documentation, is available on the IBM N series support website, which is accessed
and navigated as described in “Websites” on page xx.
If you are configuring a storage system as part of a high-availability (or
active/active) configuration, some information types must be unique for each
storage system mode in the configuration, and some information types must be
identical on both storage system nodes. If you have a high-availability (or
active/active) configuration, IBM recommends that you print and complete two
copies of the configuration worksheet, one for each system node.
For information regarding how to boot your system for the first time, refer to the
Installation and Setup Instructions that came with your system.
For N7000 series systems, initial startup and configuration tasks must be
performed by IBM.
Note: For additional information about gateway systems, see the documentation
listed in the "Bibliography" appendix of the IBM System Storage N series Introduction
and Planning Guide . This guide, as well as other N series documentation, is
available on the IBM N series support website, which is accessed and navigated as
described in “Websites” on page xx.
Configuring the Fibre Channel port
The N7000 series system motherboard tray provides eight independent Fibre
Channel ports, identified as 0a, 0b, 0c, 0d, 0e, 0f, 0g, and 0h in Figure 4 on page 18.
SFPs must be firmly seated in all ports before connecting cables.
