3. Open a web browser on the laptop. In the address bar of the web browser, type http://192.168.254.253. The iBMC

4. Log in to the iBMC. The user name is ADMIN and the password is N@sst0r3.

5. Click Launch Java KVM Client. The FluidFS cluster CLI opens.

6. From the command line, type the following command at the next login as prompt: cli

Type the FluidFS cluster administrator user name at the login as prompt. The default user name is Administrator.

8. Type the FluidFS cluster administrator password at the

<user_name>

’s password prompt. The default password is Stor@ge!.

You are logged in to the CLI and a Welcome window opens. The window lists the available commands in the main menu.

Congure Cluster IP Addresses and the Default Gateway

Congure the client subnet mask, optional VLAN ID, controller IP addresses, a client VIP, and default route for the rst appliance. IP

addresses and VIPs for additional appliances can be congured at this time or congured later by Dell Storage Manager.

Prerequisites

IP addresses must be reserved for the FluidFS cluster on the client network. See IP Addresses and Network Infrastructure.

Steps

1. Use the following command to add a client subnet. Specify the client subnet mask, optional VLAN ID, and an IP address for

each controller on this subnet.

CLI> environment network subnets add <Prefix_Length> [-VLANTag <VLAN ID>] ‑PrivateIPs

<IP1, IP2>

Example:

environment network subnets add 16 -VLANTag 0 -PrivateIPs 198.51.100.16,198.51.100.1

2. For IPv4, use the following command to congure the default gateway:

CLI> environment network default-gateway add-IPv4 [gateway_IP_address]

For IPv6, use the following command to congure the default gateway:

CLI> environment network default-gateway add-IPv6 [gateway_IP_address]

3. Add at least one client VIP in the same subnet as dened in Step 1 : CLI> client-access DNS-and-VIPs public-

ips add <IP>

Use Dell Storage Manager to Congure the FluidFS Cluster

Make sure that you have the IP addresses, netmask numbers, and NAS environment items that were discovered when the FS8600

Pre-Deployment Requirements process was completed.

Prerequisites

Before conguring the FluidFS cluster with Dell Storage Manager, ensure that you have met the following requirements.

■

Prerequisite

□ Dell Storage Manager and Storage Center are deployed and congured. See SAN Conguration.

□ You have the required network credentials. See Network Credentials.

□ LAN/client network IP addresses (and, optionally, the default gateway) have been congured on the FS8600 using the

command-line interface.

□ Required ports are allowed on the network. See the FluidFS v6 Support Matrix for specic port information.

□ The FluidFS cluster is connected to the SAN, client network, and internal network. See Install and Connect the FS8600

Hardware.

NOTE: To congure a FluidFS cluster with an SCv2080 storage system, a volume must exist on the storage system.

□ Verify that the iSCSI MTU is set to 9000.
