HPE MSA 1050

Obtaining IP values 35
4. Start and configure a terminal emulator, such as HyperTerminal or VT-100, using the display settings in Table 5 and
the connection settings in Table 6 (also, see the note following this procedure).
.
1
Your server or laptop configuration determines which COM port is used for Disk Array USB Port.
2
Verify the appropriate COM port for use with the CLI.
5. In the terminal emulator, connect to controller A.
6. Press Enter to display the CLI prompt (#).
The CLI displays the system version, MC version, and login prompt:
a. At the login prompt, enter your user name.
b. Enter your password.
IMPORTANT: As of MSA firmware version VE270P003 (MSA 1050) and VL270P003 (MSA 2050 and MSA 2052), the
MSA systems no longer support the default user name and password for logging into the system. After upgrading to this
firmware version, you will be prompted to create a new user name and password combination using the setup user
account.
7. At the prompt, type the following command to set the values you obtained in step 1 for each network port, first for
controller A and then for controller B:
set network-parameters ip address netmask netmask gateway gateway controller a|b
where:
 address is the IP address of the controller
 netmask is the subnet mask
 gateway is the IP address of the subnet router
 a|b specifies the controller whose network parameters you are setting
For example:
# set network-parameters ip 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 controller a
# set network-parameters ip 192.168.0.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 controller b
8. Type the following command to verify the new IP addresses:
show network-parameters
Network parameters, including the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are displayed for each controller.
