Installing and re
moving the Navisphere Storage System Initialization
Utility
EMC recommends that you install the utility on the server; however,
you can run the Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility from
the server support CD.
Installation prerequisites
TousetheStorageSystemInitializationUtilityonaSolarisserver
to initialize a storage system, the server must meet the following
requirements:
Run a supported version of the operating system.
Be connected to the same subnet as the 10/100 management ports of
the storage system that you want to initialize. This server may also
be a server with Fibre Channel connections to the storage system.
If you have a previous revision installed, you must uninstall it before
installing an updated version.
Installing the Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility on a Solaris server
EMC recommends that you install the most recent version of the
Navisphere Storage System Initialization Utility software that is
appropriate for your configuration. You can download the most recent
version from either the software download page on the Powerlink
website (CX3–series and CX-series) or on the support website
(AX-series storage systems). You can also install the software from the
server support CD (any storage system); however, the CD may not
contain the most recent version for your configuration.
1. Log in as superuser (root) on a Solaris server that is on the same
subnet as the storage system.
2. If any previous revision of the initialization utility is installed on
the server, remove it before continuing.
Note: To verify if the initialization utility is installed, enter the pkginfo
|grep HOST command.
