Attention: The default service IP addresses on your new Storwize V7000 Unified
control enclosure might conflict with existing devices that are attached to the
network or with other new control enclosures that you are installing. The service
IP address 192.168.70.121 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is preconfigured on Ethernet
port 1 of the upper canister, canister 1. The service IP address 192.168.70.122 subnet
mask 255.255.255.0 is preconfigured on Ethernet port 2 of the lower canister,
canister 2.
If you encounter that situation, change the service IP addresses on the new nodes
before connecting the Ethernet cables. For details, see Figure 39 on page 50 or see
the Storwize V7000 Unified Problem Determination Guide PDF on the DVD for further
information about setting service IP addresses using a USB flash drive.
Perform the following steps:
1. For each node canister in the control enclosure, connect an Ethernet cable
between Ethernet port 1 of the canister and the Ethernet network.
Note: Ethernet cables are not supplied as part of your order. A CAT 5
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) is the minimum requirement for an Ethernet
cable.
Ensure that cables are installed in a tidy manner to reduce the risk of cable
damage.
2. Optionally attach Ethernet cables between Ethernet port 2 on each node
canister and your Ethernet network.
File module to file module:
v Connect an Ethernet cable from Ethernet port 1 on the first file module to the
first Ethernet port on the second file module. Refer to Figure 39 on page 50 for
port locations.
Note: Ethernet cables for the internal network are provided by IBM with the file
modules.
v Connect an Ethernet cable from Ethernet port 2 on first file module to Ethernet
port 2 on the second file module.
v Route the Ethernet cables through the cable management arms, and secure any
excess using the cable retention features of the rack.
