that the disk enclosures are powered up first; otherwise, the controller boot up process may
be interrupted.
• After setting this HP P6000 Control Panel feature, if you have to shut down the array, perform
the following steps:
1. Use HP P6000 Command View to shut down the controllers and disk enclosures.
2. Turn off power from the rack power distribution unit (PDU).
3. Turn on power from the rack PDU.
After startup of the management module, the controllers will automatically start.
Connecting to the management module
You can connect to the management module through a public or a private network.
IMPORTANT: To aggregate additional HP Command View servers into a SPoG (Single Pane of
Glass) when the servers reside on a different IP network from the SPoG web server, some additional
configuration settings may be needed. To configure the system if the HP Command View servers
reside on a different network and you would like them visible in the SPoG, see Discovery URI under
Discovery configuration settings in the HP Management Integration Framework Administrator Guide.
If you use a laptop to connect to the management module, configure the laptop to have an address
in the same IP range as the management module (for example, 192.168.0.2 with a subnet mask
of 255.255.255.0).
The management module has an MDI-X port that supports straight-through or crossover Ethernet
cables. Use a Cat5e or greater cable to connect to the management module from its Ethernet jack
(2, Figure 23 (page 34)) to the management server.

Connecting through a public network
1. Initialize the EVA4400 storage system, using HP P6000 SmartStart or HP P6000 Command
View.
2. If currently connected, disconnect the public network LAN cable from the back of the
management module in the controller enclosure.
3. Press and hold the recessed Reset button (3, Figure 23 (page 34)) for 4–5 seconds.
If you are running HP Command View EVA 9.3 or later, the green LED on the management
module (1, Figure 23 (page 34)) blinks to indicate the configuration reset has started. The
reset may take up to 2 minutes to complete. When the reset is completed, the green LED turns
solid. This sets IP addresses of 192.168.0.1/24 (IPv4) and fd50:f2eb:a8a::7/48 (IPv6). If
you are running a version earlier than HP Command View EVA 9.3 on the management
module, the amber LED will flash momentarily when the reset is completed.
