172 IBM Midrange System Storage Hardware Guide
To set a password, highlight the storage system, right-click it, and select Storage
Subsystem Set Password (see Figure 4-35). This password is then stored on the
DS5000 storage subsystem. It is used if you connect through another SMclient, no matter
whether you are using in-band or out-of-band management.
Figure 4-35 Setting the password
Be aware that after the password is set, no modification commands will be allowed without it,
so do not forget the password.
Configuring alerts
This option allows you to set up the alert structure. If there are any problems with any of the
storage subsystems, an e-mail or an SNMP notification can be sent. The Initial Setup Tasks
view of the Enterprise Management window allows you to configure alerts for all storage
subsystems, for a group of them, or for a single one.
We provide a detailed description of the Configure Alerts option in 4.9.7, “Monitoring and
alerting” on page 223.
Note: Setting a password provides additional protection for a DS5000 storage subsystem
in a public LAN. However, you gain higher protection by connecting the DS5000 storage
subsystem to a private network reserved for administration.
