Figure 78. Storwize V5010E technician port
Storwize V5030E systems have a dedicated technician port. Figure 79 on page 79 shows the location
of the port ( T ) on a node canister.

4. Connect an Ethernet cable between the port of the personal computer that is congured in step “2” on
page 78 and the technician port.
After the connection is made, the system will automatically congure the IP and DNS settings for the
personal computer if DHCP is available. If DHCP it is not available, the system uses the values that you
provided in step “2.a” on page 78.
5. After the Ethernet port of the personal computer is connected, open a supported browser and browse
to address http://service. (If you do not have DCHP, open a supported browser and go to the
following static IP address 192.168.0.1.)
The browser is automatically directed to the initialization tool.
Note: If the system cannot be initialized, you are directed to the service assistant interface.
6. Follow the instructions that are presented by the initialization tool to congure the system with a name
and management IP address.
7. If you experience a problem during the process due to a change in system states, wait 5 - 10 seconds.
Then, either reopen the SSH connection or reload the service assistant.
8. After you complete the initialization process, disconnect the cable between the personal computer
and the technician port.
What to do next
The system can now be reached by opening a supported web browser and pointing it to http://
management_IP_address.
Conguring a system to be NEBS-compliant
For operation in Network Equipment-Building System (NEBS) compliant installations, the system can be
congured to extend its operational temperature range to meet NEBS operating temperature
requirements.
Note: The system might not be able to save its cache and state data if the power fails while it is operating
within the extended temperature range. This is because the battery capacity decreases as temperature
rises. If the save of cache and state data cannot be completed, an extended service action is required to
