Configuring a Secure Console

Caution:

A machine used as a proxy server for Phone Home cannot be dependent upon
Storage Center itself. If a proxy server is dependent on Storage Center, the
system cannot Phone Home or connect via SSH as it is booting. Do not modify
secure console configuration without the assistance of Dell Support Services.

A secure console allows support personnel to access to a Storage Center console via SSH
without connecting through the serial port.

To configure a secure console

1 From the Storage Management menu, choose System > Access > Configure Secure

Console. The system warns you not to modify the secure console without the
assistance of Dell Support Services.

2 If you are being assisted by Dell Support Services, click Continue. The Configure Secure

Console window appears.

3 For additional information, contact Dell Support Services.

Restarting / Disabling Secure Console Access

If secure console access was enabled via the Configure Secure Console wizard, options to
restart or disable secure console access to the Storage Center are available on the
Storage Management > System > Access menu.
