Configuring the Appliance for the First Time
This section contains first-time configuration procedures for Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance.
Follow these steps to complete first-time configuration:
1. Ensure you have completed cabling, including the serial or network cabling for Oracle
Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) connectivity, as described in Cabling the
Appliance.
2. Configure the system through Oracle ILOM. See Configuring the System.
Note:
After system configuration, a network device and its associated datalink and
interface are automatically created with administrative access. You can add
interfaces, and add or change administrative access to other interfaces during
and after initial configuration.
3. For a standalone controller, complete initial configuration using the browser user interface
(BUI) or the command line interface (CLI). For a clustered controller, it is strongly
recommended to use the BUI.
• Performing Initial Configuration (BUI)
• Performing Initial Configuration (CLI)
For an overview of network interface configuration, see Network Configuration in Oracle
ZFS Storage Appliance Administration Guide, Release OS8.8.x.
4. If you did not set a management interface during initial configuration, set it now using the
tasks in Configuring Management Interfaces in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance
Administration Guide, Release OS8.8.x.
5. For clustered controllers, lock the management interfaces:
• Locking a Cluster Management Interface (BUI) in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance
Administration Guide, Release OS8.8.x
• Locking a Cluster Management Interface (CLI) Locking a Cluster Management
Interface (CLI) in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Administration Guide, Release
OS8.8.x
6. Upgrade your controller software to the latest release using the procedures in Upgrading
the Software in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Customer Service Manual, Release
OS8.8.x.
Configuring the System
Use this procedure to configure the system through Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager
(ILOM) when the appliance is first powered on.
