Overview of Configuration File Loader Operations

The Configuration File Loader is used to make large-scale or “batch” changes
to the configuration of certain program product options, using either a text

editor or spreadsheet software to edit configuration definition files
(spreadsheet files) and apply the changes to the storage system. You can
apply the same spreadsheet file to different storage systems, and you can

define the configuration in the spreadsheet when you are offline.

How to apply a spreadsheet to the storage system differs depending on the
program products. The following table shows program products supporting

spreadsheets and how to apply a spreadsheet.

Overview of SSL-Encrypted Communications

In order to improve security of remote operations from a Storage Navigator to
a storage system, you can set up SSL-encrypted communication. By setting

SSL-encrypted communication, the User ID and Password required for logging
in to the Storage Navigator are encrypted, and you can have a higher level of
security for the communication.

For detailed information on the SSL-encrypted communication, see the
Encrypted communications User's Guide.

You need to change the SVP (Web server) to Apache, which supports SSL, in

order to perform SSL-encrypted communication. The Hitachi Data Systems
service personnel will do the operation to change the SVP to the SSL-
supported Apache.
