Oracle ZS5 SERIES User Manual

Configuring the Appliance for the First Time
This section contains first-time configuration procedures for the 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
ILOM connectivity, as described in “Cabling the Appliance” on page 171.
2. Configure the system through Oracle ILOM. See “Configuring the System” on page 184.
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. Complete initial configuration using the browser user interface (BUI), which is strongly
recommended for clustered controllers, or the command line interface (CLI):
■
“Performing Initial Configuration (BUI)” on page 187
■
“Performing Initial Configuration (CLI)” on page 201
For an overview of network interface configuration, see “Working with Network
Configuration” in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Administration Guide, Release OS8.6.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 OS8.6.x.
5. For clustered controllers, lock the management interfaces:
■
“Locking Cluster Management Interfaces (BUI)” in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance
Administration Guide, Release OS8.6.x
■
“Locking Cluster Management Interfaces (CLI)” in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance
Administration Guide, Release OS8.6.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.
