HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension Software Administrator Guide (5697-2894, December 2013)
Configuring HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension
After installation, you must define the configuration setup using the HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster
Extension Configuration Tool.
You can configure HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension with the GUI or the CLI. Use the following
instructions for the GUI. For instructions on performing HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension
configuration tasks with the CLI, see “Defining the HP 3PAR StoreServ configuration information
using the GUI” (page 19).
IMPORTANT: User Account Control (UAC) is a feature in Windows Server 2008 onwards, that
can help prevent unauthorized changes to your computer. UAC prevents unauthorized changes
by requesting for permission or an administrator password before performing actions that can
affect your computer's operation or that change system settings that affect other users. For more
information on UAC, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/
What-is-User-Account-Control .
If you log in to the cluster node as a domain user with domain administrator privileges, you cannot
run the CLX applications such as HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension Configuration Tool
[CLX3PARCONFIG.exe], clx3parrun.exe or Clx3PARResConfig.exe. This is because the
UAC is enabled by default. You must elevate the logged on user privileges to the local administrator
and execute the applications. This can be done by using the Run as administrator option.
Starting the HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension configuration tool
If TPDNOCERTPROMPT environment variable is set, then remove the TPDNOCERTPROMPT
environment variable before starting the HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension configuration tool.
Once the CLX configuration is complete, you can set the TPDNOCERTPROMPT environment variable
again. This must be performed if the 3PAR CLI and the 3PAR OS versions are either 3.1.2 MU3
P16, 3.1.1 MU3 P27, 2.3.1 MU5 P35, or later.
