10 Configuration
Refer to the HP StorageWorks Network Storage Router User Guide for detailed procedures on configuring the
router.
Note: If this router replaced a faulty router, restore the old router's configuration settings using the
FTP User Interface [ftp –>login –>bin –>put <path><filename>.cfg].
For All Configurations:
1. Cable the serial interface and use your host
application to communicate over the serial bus.
[Defaults: 115200 Bits er second, 8 Data bits,
No Parity, 1 Sto bit, and Xon/Xoff Flow Control]
2. Use the serial user interface to set the Ethernet
configurations (DHCP, IP address, Subnet, and
Gateway). [Perform Configuration -> Ethernet and
SNMP Configuration]
3. Save Configuration. [Perform Configuration ->
Ethernet and SNMP Configuration]
4. Reboot the router. [Main Menu]
5. Write down the router's IP address [Perform
Configuration -> Ethernet and SNMP Configuration]
6. Enter the Visual User Interface by opening your
web browser and entering the router's IP address.
[Defaults: Logon-root Password- assword]
7. Set the Real-Time Clock. [System -> Real-Time Clock]
8. Set the Fibre Channel port Performance Mode (1GB
or 2GB, depending on the hardware to which the
router is connected). The router is not auto-switching.
[Ports -> FC Port]
9. Assign Port 0 Device Map to the hosts that need
to communicate with the library. [Ma ing]
10. Select Port 0 Device Map and click Edit/View.
[Ma ing]
11. Set the Fill Map Priority to Bus/Target and Fill Map.
[Ma ing -> Select Ma -> Edit/View]
12. For SCSI Ultra 3 drives (for example Ultrium 460),
configure only 1 drive per SCSI bus.
For SCSI Ultra 2 drives (for example SDLT 220,
SDLT 320, Ultrium 230 and all DLT drives)
configure a maximum of 2 drives per SCSI bus.
[Ma ing -> Select Ma -> Edit/View]
13. Active Fabric (AF) should be the last LUN used
on the map. Do not move AF to map LUN 0
(Device specific LUN=0 is normal)
[Ma ing -> Select Ma -> Edit/View]
14. Remove Gaps in the LUN sequence.
[Ma ing -> Select Ma -> Edit/View]
15. Reboot the router [Reboot]
Additional Steps for Direct Connect
(Point to Point) Configurations:
1. Set Port Mode to Auto Sense. [Ports -> FC Port]
2. Set Hard AL_PA to Enable. [Ports -> FC Port]
3. Click Set AL_PA to select any available AL_PA.
The only remaining AL_PA should be the host bus
adapter (HBA). Using a high number will avoid
potential conflicts. [Ports -> FC Port]
4. Reboot the router [Reboot]
