Quantum QXS G2 Series

Installation 97
8 Enter the following CLI command to verify the new IP addresses:
show network-parameters
Network parameters, including the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are displayed
for each controller.
9 Use the ping command to verify connectivity to the gateway address.
For example:
#
ping 192.168.0.1
A success message will say that the remote computer responded with 4 packets.
10 In the host computer's command window, type the following command to verify connectivity, first
for controller A and then for controller B:
ping controller-IP-address
If you cannot access your system for at least three minutes after changing the IP address, you
might need to restart the Management Controller(s) using the serial CLI.
When you restart a Management Controller, communication with it is temporarily lost until it
successfully restarts.
Enter the following CLI command to restart the Management Controller in both controllers:
restart mc both
IMPORTANT: When configuring an iSCSI system or a system using a combination of FC and iSCSI
SFPs, do not restart the Management Controller or exit the terminal emulator session until
configuring the CNC ports as described in Change CNC Port Mode on page 98.
11 When you are done using the CLI, exit the emulator.
12 Retain the IP addresses (recorded in step 1) for accessing and managing the controllers using the
disk management utility (GUI) or the CLI.
NOTE: Using HyperTerminal with the CLI on a Microsoft Windows host:
• On a host computer connected to a controller module’s mini-USB CLI port, incorrect command
syntax in a HyperTerminal session can cause the CLI to hang.
To avoid this problem, use correct syntax, use a different terminal emulator, or connect to the CLI
using telnet rather than the mini-USB cable.
• Be sure to close the HyperTerminal session before shutting down the controller or restarting its
Management Controller. Otherwise, the host’s CPU cycles may rise unacceptably.
If communication with the CLI is disrupted when using an out-of-band cable connection,
communication can sometimes be restored by disconnecting and reattaching the mini-USB CLI cable
as described in step 2 and Figure 84 on page 95.
