System Configuration Requirements
This section provides an overview of the modular server system configuration
requirements. Specifically, you must complete each of the following requirements:
•
Update System Firmware (recommended):
Prior to configuring the modular server system, it is recommended that you update the
system firmware to the latest release. For more information regarding the firmware
update process, see
“Steps to Update the System Firmware” on page 147
.
•
Install physical hard drives (required):
Physical hard drives must be present in the modular server system before you can
configure the modular server system storage.
•
Configure Storage (required):
Configuring storage includes grouping installed physical hard drives into storage
pools, creating virtual drives, and assigning the virtual drives to one or more compute
modules. Storage configuration also includes creating and assigning hot spares to
storage pools. For more information, see
“Storage Configuration” on page 84
.
•
Install at least one Intel
®
Compute Module MFS5000SI/MFS5520VI (required):
When configuring storage, a compute module does not need to be present in the
system. Virtual drives can be assigned to a compute module slot/bay in the chassis
regardless of whether or not a compute module is present. However, in order to install
an operating system, you must first insert a compute module into the Intel
®
Modular
Server System MFSYS25/MFSYS35.
•
Modify the Intel
®
Modular Server Control UI Administrator account password
(recommended):
For security reasons, it is recommended that you change the default administrator
password once the system is configured. For more informatin, see
“User Accounts”
on page 139
.
•
Modify the external IP address for the Intel
®
Management Module (required):
This is the IP Address used to access the Intel
®
Modular Server Control UI. Before
installing the modular server system on a network, change the external IP address and
hostname as needed. You will need to change the management module default static
IP address if more than one Intel
®
Modular Server System MFSYS25/MFSYS35 is
present on the network, or if the default management module IP address cannot be
accessed in the installed network environment. For more information, see
“Storage
Redundancy Check Schedule” on page 131
