Important Information 27
The PowerEdge
storage server is
attached to a DHCP
network, but I cannot
connect to it through
the MMC.
The DHCP server may
have issued a new
DHCP address to the
PowerEdge storage
server.
If the PowerEdge storage server
has been powered down for a
period of time predetermined by
the DHCP server, the
PowerEdge storage server
acquires a new DHCP address
from that server. The DHCP
server may not have yet
replicated the new address with
the PowerEdge storage server
name.
Wait approximately 15 minutes
for the address to be replicated
and then try connecting again or
try connecting to the PowerEdge
storage server again using the IP
address.
I cannot connect to
the PowerEdge storage
server using a static IP
address.
You may be using the
wrong address syntax.
Ensure that you are correctly
entering the correct address in
the syntax.
A PowerEdge storage
server has been moved
to a new network or
new subnet and I
cannot connect.
The connection
settings may need to
be refreshed.
If the PowerEdge storage server
is using DHCP, open a
command line on the system
and use the ipconfig utility to
release and renew the IP address.
If DHCP is not being used,
verify that all PowerEdge storage
server network interface settings
are correct.
