1 Runthefollowingcommandtoconfigurethemanagementinterface(etho).
controller ipconfig eth0 [IP address] [netmask] [gateway]
Example:
controller ipconfig eth0 172.31.1.101 255.255.0.0 172.31.0.1
2 RunthefollowingcommandtospecifyoneormoreDNSservers.
controller dnsserver [DNS server 1 IP address] [DNS server 2 IP address]
Example:
controller dnsserver 172.31.0.50 172.31.0.60
3 RunthefollowingcommandtospecifythedomaintowhichtheStorageCenterbelongs.
controller domainname [domain name]
Example:
controller domainname corp.dom

Manage the iDRAC IP Address
TheSC8000controllerincludestheIntegra tedDellRemoteAccessController(iDRAC7)
thatisfactoryconfiguredforDynamicHostConfigurationProtocol(DHCP).TheiDRAC
canbeleftwiththeoriginalconfigurationoritcanbeassignedastaticIPaddress.
 ToseeiftheiDRACissettouseastaticIPaddressorDHCP,runthefollowing
command:
platform bmc get source
 ToseewhatIPaddressisassignedtotheiDRAC, runthefollowingcommand:
platform bmc show
 TosettheiDRACtoastaticIP address,runthefollowingcommands:
platform bmc set ip [IP address]
platform bmc set netmask [netmask]
platform bmc set gateway [gateway]
Example:
platform bmc set ip 10.0.0.12
platform bmc set netmask 255.255.255.0
platform bmc set gateway 10.0.0.1
 TosettheiDRACtouseDHCP,runthefollowingcommand:
platform bmc set source DHCP
NotethatDHCPmustbeenteredinallcaps.
Note: Ifconfiguringadual‐controllerStorageCenter,performthistaskforboth
controllers.
Note: TousetheiDRACinanon‐DHCPenvironment,astaticIPaddressmustbe
set.
Note: Onadual‐controllerStorageCenter,changetheiDRACIPaddresson
bothSC8000controllers.
