iSCSI Cluster Setup for the PowerVault Enclosure 41

Console Installation

NOTE: Console installation only applies to Linux systems that are not running a

graphical environment.

The autorun script in the root of the resource media detects when there is no

graphical environment running and automatically starts the installer in a

text-based mode. This mode provides the same options as graphical

installation with the exception of the MDCU specific options. The MDCU

requires a graphical environment to operate.

Silent Installation

This option allows you to install the software in an unattended mode. To run

the silent installation in a Windows system, perform the following steps:

To begin the installation with all the default options, navigate to the

windows folder on the resource media and run the following command:

md32xxi_install -i silent

To specify which features are to be installed silently, modify the

custom_silent.properties file located in the same directory and copy it to a

writable location on the host server. This file contains a list of supported

features and their descriptions. To utilize the modified

custom_silent.properties

file, run the command:

md32xxi_install -f <path>/custom_silent.properties
