  • Capacity requirements: To download the ISM software, the maintenance terminal must include a dual/quad-core CPU and have 512 MB (or more) of available memory.
  • The maintenance terminal communicates with the storage system properly.
    NOTE:
    • The default IP address of the management network port is 192.168.128.101 or 192.168.128.102. The default subnet mask is 255.255.0.0.

    • If the IP address of the maintenance terminal is not in the same network segment as the management network port, change the IP address of the management network port. For details, see OceanStor T Series Storage System V100R005 Installation Guide (SAN Volume).

Procedure

  1. Log in to the ISM.
    1. Start the Internet Explorer on the maintenance client.
    2. Enter the access address in the address box.

      • If the version is earlier than V100R002C00SPC010 or V100R002C01SPC007, enter http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.
      • If the version is V100R002C00SPC010，V100R002C01SPC007, or their later versions, enter https://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.
      • XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX represents the IP address of the management network port of the storage controller where the ISM is placed. To download the ISM software, you can enter the IP address of the management network port on controller A or on controller B.
      NOTE:
      • When downloading the ISM via the IPv6 address of the storage c ontroller, in the address bar, enter https://[XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX].
      • You may be prompted with a warning indicating a security certificate problem and be presented with a few options. Confirm that the IP address is correct and choose to continue to access the storage system.

      Discovery Mode

      Description

      Specify IP address

      Search for storage systems based on the IP address of the management network interface.

      Specify IP segment

      Search for storage systems based on the specified IP address segment of the management network ports. All the storage systems within the specified IP address segment will be discovered.

      Local sub-network

      Search for storage systems within the IP address segment of the maintenance terminal where the ISM is installed. For example, if the IP address and subnet mask of the maintenance terminal where the ISM is installed are 129.16.101.14 and 255.255.0.0, all the storage systems within the 129.16.0.0 network segment will be discovered.

      NOTE:
