Access ThinkSystem System Manager and use the Setup wizard
You use the Setup wizard in ThinkSystem System Manager to configure your storage array.
Before you begin
• You have ensured that the device from which you will access ThinkSystem System Manager contains one
of the following browsers:
Browser Minimum version
Google Chrome
47
Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
Microsoft Edge EdgeHTML 12
Mozilla Firefox 31
Safari

• You are using out-of-band management.
The wizard automatically relaunches when you open System Manager or refresh your browser and at least
one of the following conditions is met:
• No pools and volume groups are detected.
• No workloads are detected.
• No notifications are configured.
Step 1. From your browser, enter the following URL: https://<DomainNameOrIPAddress>
IIPPAAddddrreessss is the address for one of the storage array controllers.
The first time ThinkSystem System Manager is opened on an array that has not been configured,
the SSeett AAddmmiinniissttrraattoorr PPaasssswwoorrdd prompt appears. Role-based access management configures
four local roles: admin, support, security, and monitor. The latter three roles have random
passwords that cannot be guessed. After you set a password for the admin role, you can change
all of the passwords using the admin credentials. See ThinkSystem System Manager online help for
more information on the four local user roles.
