Procedure
1. On the Linux environment, configure the network interface that will be
used to access Storage Advisor.
Storage Advisor supports user interface and API access via an IPv4
address.
2. Copy the tar file installer.tar.gz from the installation media to any
folder in the Linux environment and unzip it.
3. Navigate to the installer script : HSA-2.2.0.xx-all-installer and
execute it.
At the prompts, enter the following:
1. Enter the username for the installer: Enter sysadmin
2. Enter the <users> password: Enter sysadmin
3. Enter host's IP: Enter the IP address that will be used to access
Storage Advisor. This IP address will also be used for SNMP
communications into the storage system.
The installation may take a few minutes. At completion, messages will
indicate the following:
• The application was successfully added.
• The API is ready.
• Any pre-existing app manager containers have been removed.
4. Set the SNMP IP address in virtual appliance manager tool:
a. Open a browser and enter https://ip-address/vam in the address
bar.
The log in credentials are sysadmin / sysadmin.
b. In the Network tab, enter the SNMP IP address for the storage
system.
Troubleshooting the installation
If the installation fails, try the following:
• If the installation fails with the (401) error code, the user name and
password specified by the installer was incorrect. Retry the installation
and ensure that sysadmin is entered for both user name and password.
• Delete all Storage Advisor containers and images and start the installation
again.
• Check the Docker logs.
• Consult Docker documentation for more information on how to perform
these actions.
• Journal entries may have additional information about the error. To view
the journal log, connect to the host with the root account and run these
commands:
â—‹ journalctl --no-pager
â—‹ journalctl --no-pager -u docker
