IBM Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility
Note: Although you can do so, it is recommended that you not change the default
computer name of your NAS appliance to avoid the chance of propagating
misidentification through the system. Also, The IBM Advanced Appliance
Configuration Utility depends on the original name to function.
The IBM Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility (IAACU) helps you to set up and
reconfigure the network configuration on the Model 326 appliance, as well as other
IBM appliances. The IAACU agent, preinstalled on the Model 326 appliance, works
with the IAACU Console, a Java-based application that is installed on a
network-attached system. You can use the IAACU as a systems-management
console to automatically detect the presence of Model 326 appliances on the
network. After the Model 326 appliance is detected by the IAACU Console, use the
IAACU to set up and manage the appliance’s network configuration, including
assigning the IP address, default gateway, network mask, and DNS server to be
used by the appliance. You can also use the IAACU to start Universal Manageability
Services (UM Services) on the appliance, enabling you to perform more advanced
systems-management tasks.
For networks that are not currently running DHCP servers, the IAACU is useful for
automatically configuring network settings for newly added appliances, such as the
Model 326.
However, networks with DHCP servers will also benefit from using the IAACU
because it enables you to reserve and assign the appliance IP address in an
orderly, automated fashion. Even when you use DHCP and do not reserve an IP
