Configuring a System via the Startup Wizard
Figure 28. Operational Modes Configured with no Warnings
Common Action – Continue
1 Click Continue to generate the initial port configuration. The dialog that appears next
depends on whether there are any iSCSI transports in Virtual Port Mode:
•
iSCSI ports in Virtual Port Mode: If you chose Virtual Port Mode for an iSCSI port,
there is an extra step. You will be asked to provide the IP Address information
required to create the default iSCSI fault domain as shown on Figure 29 on page 34.
•
No iSCSI ports in Virtual Port Mode: While the initial port configuration is being
generated, the Startup Wizard displays a window showing progress. After the
configuration has been generated, it is automatically validated. If the valid at on is
successful, the confirmation window shown in Figure 30 on page 35 appears. If there
are warnings, a similar window appears listing errors.
Alternate Action – Skip Port Configuration
If you do not know the initial port configuration, you can choose to skip port configuration
at this time. If no FC switch is set up and configured, you will have to skip port configuration.
1 Click Skip Port Configuration to continue setup without generating the initial local
port configuration. If you skip port configuration:
•
All ports remain unconfigured and have a status of Unknown.
•
All ports are in Legacy or Virtual Port mode based on your selections.
If you skip configuring local ports at this time, you can configure them later through the
Storage Center Storage Management menu: System > Setup > Configure Local
Ports option as described in the Storage Center System Manager User Guide.
