Chapter 5. Conguring the system
After initializing the system, you can complete the conguration of the system with the management GUI
or command-line interface.
To use the management GUI to complete the conguration procedures after initializing the system, use a
supported browser to log on to the system.
To use the enclosure hardware, the system software must be congured. Your web browser is used to
access the system's initialization and conguration interfaces. “Checking your web browser settings for
the management GUI” on page 75 describes how to ensure that you are using a supported web
browser.
To create a new system of enclosures, for example, when you are creating your rst system, refer to
“User name and password for system initialization” on page 77. Then, follow the procedure that is
described in “Initializing the system by using the technician port” on page 78.
If a system must operate in a NEBS-compliant environment, refer to “Conguring a system to be NEBS-
compliant” on page 79.
A Storwize V5030E system can be created with up to two control enclosures. To add a control
enclosure to an existing system, follow the procedure in “Adding a control enclosure to an existing
system ” on page 80.
Each control enclosure supports the connection of SAS expansion enclosures. These can be added by
following the procedure in “Adding an expansion enclosure to an existing system” on page 80.
Checking your web browser settings for the management GUI
To access the management GUI, you must ensure that your web browser is supported and that the
appropriate settings are enabled.
Before you begin
The management GUI supports the following HTML5-compliant browsers:
Mozilla Firefox 72.0.1
Mozilla Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) 68.4
Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 11 and Microsoft Edge 44
Google Chrome 79.0
Note: The minimum viewpoint for browser window for the management GUI is 1024 x 768. Scaling
browser view to less than those dimensions affects readability of data on management GUI pages.
IBM supports higher versions of the browsers if the vendors do not remove or disable function that the
product relies upon. For browser levels higher than the versions that are certied with the product,
customer support accepts usage-related and defect-related service requests. If the support center
cannot re-create the issue, support might request the client to re-create the problem on a certied
browser version. Defects are not accepted for cosmetic differences between browsers or browser
versions that do not affect the functional behavior of the product. If a problem is identied in the product,
defects are accepted. If a problem is identied with the browser, IBM might investigate potential
solutions or work-arounds that the client can implement until a permanent solution becomes available.
Procedure
To congure your web browser, follow these steps:
1. Enable JavaScript for your web browser.
For Mozilla Firefox, JavaScript is enabled by default and requires no additional conguration.
