Congure Front-End IO Ports (iSCSI)
On SCv2000 series controllers, ports must be congured before they can be used as front-end ports. After Storage Manager
congures the port, it is also added to a fault domain.
Prerequisites
• The Storage Center must be a SCv2000 series storage system.
• The port cannot be already congured.
Steps
1. Select a Storage Center from the Storage view. (Data Collector connected Storage Manager Client only)
2. Click the Hardware tab.
3. In the Hardware tab navigation pane, expand Controllers → controller name → IO Ports → iSCSI, then select an iSCSI IO
port.
4. In the right pane, click Congure Port. The Congure Port dialog box opens.
5. In the IPv4 Address eld, type a new IP address for the iSCSI IO port.
6. Click OK.
Storage Manager congures the IO port and adds it to the iSCSI fault domain.
Uncongure Front-End IO Ports
On SCv2000 series controllers, when a port is down and will not be used, uncongure the port.
Prerequisites
• The Storage Center must be a SCv2000 series storage system.
• The port must be down.
Steps
1. Select a Storage Center from the Storage view. (Data Collector connected Storage Manager Client only)
2. Click the Hardware tab.
3. In the Hardware tab navigation pane, expand Controllers→ controller name→ IO Ports, then select a down IO port.

Storage Manager uncongures the port.
Deleting a Fault Domain
When converting a storage system from Legacy to Virtual mode or if more fault domains were set up than needed, it might be
necessary to delete fault domains. The option to delete the fault domain appears when all the ports are moved.
Move a Port
Before deleting a fault domain, move all the ports from the fault domain to another fault domain. If you cannot move the ports, the
fault domain cannot be deleted until you contact Dell Technical Support.
Prerequisite
Another fault domain must be available to move the port to.
Steps
1. Select a Storage Center from the Storage view. (Data Collector connected Storage Manager Client only)
2. In the Storage tab navigation pane, expand Fault Domains → ISCSI then select a Fault Domain.
