Setting up VPLEX
Task 16: Set up ESRS
if necessary
ESRS must be deployed by EMC personnel. If ESRS will be used in the VPLEX
implementation, EMC personnel should follow the procedure described in the ESRS
documentation on the GTS website, in the Application Download area, under EMC
Secure Remote Support Gateway > Implementation > Install Procedure.
Task 17: Open a
VPlexcli session on
cluster 1
Several of the remaining tasks require moving back and forth between VPlexcli
sessions to both clusters. You will find it easier to leave two sessions open.
Some tasks include one of the following icons to identify the associated PuTTY
session:
◆ Management server 1:
◆ Management server 2:
To open a second session:
Note: It is assumed that you have an open VPlexcli session to management server 2 at this
point.
1. On your laptop, launch PuTTY.exe.
2. If you already have a VPLEX Cluster 1 session saved, load it.
If no Cluster 1 session exists, configure the PuTTY Configuration window as
shown in Figure 36 on page 52.
3. Click Open to establish a session to management server 1, and log in with
username service and password Mi@Dim7T.
4. From the Linux shell prompt, type the following command to connect to the
VPlexcli:
vplexcli
Log in with username service and password Mi@Dim7T.
Task 18: Complete
the EZ-Setup on
cluster 1
From the VPlexcli prompt on management server 1, type the
following command:
configuration system-setup -m
When the automated configuration is complete, the VPlexcli prompt appears.
Task 19: Verify the
date and time on
both clusters
1. From the VPlexcli prompt on management server 1, type the
following command to display the date and UTC time:
date
Output example:
Tue Feb 16 19:07:58 UTC 2010
2. Repeat step 1 on management server 2.
