Configuring The Network; Setting The Date And Time; Setting The Administrator Password - HP AH164A - StorageWorks 1/8 G2 Tape Autoloader Ultrium 448 Getting Started Manual

15 Configuring the network
Configuring the network enables you to monitor, configure, and control
most Autoloader functions from the remote management interface (RMI).
By default, the Autoloader will obtain an IP address from a DHCP
server. You can configure the Autoloader to use a static IP address.
Once the Autoloader has an IP address, you can change the network
configuration from the OCP or RMI.
The Autoloader supports IPv4 and IPv6. By default, the Autoloader
is configured to use IPv4, the most common current version. You can
enable IPv6 or both Internet Protocols from the OCP or RMI, and then
finish configuring IPv6 from the RMI.
1.
From the Home screen, press Next until the display shows
Status/Information. Press Enter.
2. Press Next until the display shows Network Information.
Press Enter.
3. The display shows IPv4 Network Enabled. Press Enter.
4.
Press Next until the display shows the IP address.
5. Press Cancel until the display shows the Home screen.
To configure or disable IPv4 addressing from the OCP:
1.
From the Home screen, press Next until the display shows
Configuration. Press Enter.
2.
Press Next until the display shows Configure Network
Settings. Press Enter.
3. Press Next until the display shows IPv4 Networking. To change
any IPv4 settings, press Enter.
4.
Press Next until the display shows the setting you want to change.
Press Enter to change the setting. Use the Next and Enter keys to
enter numbers. Press Enter to confirm.
5.
Repeat step 4 to configure additional IPv4 settings.
6. Press Cancel until the display shows the Home screen.
To enable IPv6 and configure IPv6 addressing options from the OCP:
1.
From the Home screen, press Next until the display shows
Configuration. Press Enter.
2.
Press Next until the display shows Configure Network
Settings. Press Enter.
3. Press Next until the display shows IPv6 Networking. To enable
IPv6 or change any IPv6 settings, press Enter.
4. Press Next until the display shows the setting you want to change.
Press Enter to change the setting. Press Enter to confirm.
5. Repeat step 4 to configure additional IPv6 settings.
6.
Press Cancel until the display shows the Home screen.
If you enabled IPv6, you must continue configuring IPv6 from
the RMI after setting the administrator password. You can find
the IPv6 IP address obtained by the Autoloader from the OCP
Information/Status > Network Information menu item. See
the HP StorageWorks 1/8 G2 Tape Autoloader Addendum included in
the product documentation for additional information about configuring
IPv6.

16 Setting the date and time

This option sets the date and time used by the Autoloader to record
events and should be set during the initial installation process. Access
to this feature requires the administrator password, if set. You can also
set the date and time from the RMI Configure: System screen.
To set the date and time from the OCP:
1.
From the Home screen, press Next until the display shows
Autoloader Date/Time. Press Enter.
2.
Enter the administrator password, if requested.
3. A number in the year will flash. Press Next until the correct number
is displayed. Press Enter to accept the number. Repeat for each
number in the date and time.
4. Press Cancel until the display shows the home screen.
NOTE:
When setting the hours, the time is based on a 24-hour clock.
There is no a.m. or p.m. designation. For example, 1:00 p.m. is
13:00.
NOTE:
The Autoloader time does not adjust itself for daylight saving
time; you must adjust the time through the front panel or RMI.

17 Setting the administrator password

Setting an administrator password provides access to the administrator
functions with the remote management interface (RMI) to only those
people who know the administrator password. The administrator
password must be exactly eight digits consisting of the numbers 0
through 9.
To set the administrator password:
1. From the Home screen, press Next until the display shows
Configuration. Press Enter.
2. Press Enter to change the administrator password.
3. The first number will flash. Press Next until the first number for the
new password is displayed. Press Enter to accept the number. The
next number flashes. Repeat for each number in the password.
4.
Press Cancel twice to move to the top of the menu.
NOTE:
To use the web-based management interface, you must set the
Administrator password.
