ThemanagementIPaddressisdistinctfromthecontroller1
andcontroller2addresses.
Itistheaddressthatmanagesadual‐controllerStorageCenterasawhole.Ifeither
controllerfails,themanagementIPaddressremainsvalid.
Note: ForlocationsintheUnitedStates,eitherselectUSastheregionandselect
atimezonename,orselectAmericaastheregionandselectacitywithinthe
sametimezone.
Note: Accuratetimesynchronizationiscriticalforreplications.DellCompellent
recommendsusingNTPtosetthesystemtime.Formoreinformation,see:
