Viewing System Properties

From the Storage Management menu, choose System > Properties. The General System
Properties
window appears.

Figure 188. System Properties – General

From this window you can change the following settings:

System name: Changing the system name does not have any real effect on the
system other than displaying a different name.

Management IP Address: is used only for dual controller systems. It is the IP address
that is used for running the system software. This IP Address is always connected to
the leader. If the leader fails, the peer takes over the management IP. Thus users can
use the same IP address to access the software even when the normal leader is
down.

Operation Mode: The default mode is Normal. Changing to Maintenance or Install
ignore the alerts that are created in certain circumstances. When a system is first set
up, it has a value of Install. At the end of the startup wizard the value is changed back
to Normal.

3 Click OK to save any changes.
