User's Manual
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.
2. Browse to https://192.168.0.1:2373 and log in as an HP EVA administrator. HP
recommends that you either change or delete the default IPv4 or IPv6 addresses to avoid
duplicate address detection issues on your network. The default user name is admin. No
password is required.
The HP P6000 control panel GUI appears.
NOTE: If you are running a version of management module software earlier than 0001.1000
(which corresponds to XCS 09004000 or earlier), use port 2372. At initial setup, you cannot
browse to the HP P6000 Control Panel until you perform this step.
3. Select Administrator Options > Configure Network Options.
4. Enter an IP address and other network settings that apply.
NOTE: The management module firmware reserves IP addresses for internal communications.
If you are using HP Command View EVA 9.2 or earlier, the reserved IP addresses are 10.0.0.1
through 10.0.0.3. Later versions of the management module firmware will also use these
addresses if the array has older controller firmware loaded. The latest versions of controller
and management module firmware, however, use the reserved IP address range from
10.253.251.230 through 10.253.251.249. The management module cannot be configured
to use these addresses, nor can it communicate with external systems that fall within the reserved
address range (for example, web client, router, DNS server, and so on).
5. Click Save Changes.
The IP address changes immediately, causing you to lose connectivity to the HP P6000 Control
Panel. The new IP address is stored and remains in effect, even when the storage system is
shut down or restarted.
NOTE: If you uninitialize the storage system, wait one minute before reinitializing or you
may lose the IP address.
IMPORTANT: The IP address will be lost if the storage system is uninitialized or the
management module is reset.
6. From a computer on the private network, browse to https://newly configured ip
address:2373 and log in.
The HP P6000 control panel GUI appears.
Changing the default operating mode
By default, the EVA4400 is shipped to operate in a Fibre Channel switch environment and is
configured in fabric mode. If you choose to connect the EVA4400 directly to a server, you must
change the default operating mode of the EVA4400 to direct mode. If you do not change this
mode, the EVA4400 will be unable to communicate with your server. Use the HP P6000 Control
Panel to change the default operating mode.
NOTE: You must have administrator privilege to change the settings in the HP P6000 Control
Panel. Change your browser settings for the HP P6000 Control Panel window as described in the
HP P6000 Command View Installation Guide.
To change the default operating mode:
