3.8 Starting the Drives
Unless otherwise selected during installation, all drives in the enclosure should automatically start their
motors. If this has not occurred one of the following conditions may exist:
• There may be a power problem (an alarm and power fault indication would normally be active).
• If there is only one Power Supply Module present, the drive motors will spin up in a delayed
sequence.
3.8.1 Disk Drive LEDs
Each drive carrier incorporates two indicators, an upper (GREEN) and lower (AMBER).
• In normal operation the Green LED will be ON and will flicker as the drive operates.
• The Amber LED will be OFF In normal operation. It will only be ON if there is a drive fault.
• If the Green LED is OFF when the Amber LED is ON, a power control circuit failure is indicated.
3.9 Starting StorView
Upon start-up, embedded StorView looks at the user Preferences Settings to determine if an IP address
exists. If one is defined it will initialize the network interface using that IP address. In the event an IP
address is not defined, it attempts to get a DHCP IP address. You will need to contact your network
administrator for the IP address assigned by the DHCP server. To identify the new IP address lease, one
can look for ‘esv0’ or ‘esv1’ in your DHCP Manager software. If an IP address cannot be determined, the
software will use a default IP address of “10.1.1.5” for Controller 0 and “10.1.1.6” for Controller 1. If an
error is encountered, it will assign the Embedded StorView Server the IP address “10.1.1.7.”
• The first time you start StorView, you will need to configure the network settings. On the first startup,
you will be prompted for a user name and password. The default user name is “admin” and the
default password is “password.”. you should change your password to protect your array, please
refer to the Storview User Guide.
