After applying power to the appliance, you must configure SANtricity System Manager, which is the software you will use to monitor the hardware. You must also configure the network connections that will be used by StorageGRID.
More information
Configuring StorageGRID connections
Before you can deploy a StorageGRID appliance as a Storage Node in a StorageGRID grid, you must configure the connections between the appliance and the networks you plan to use. You can configure networking by browsing to the StorageGRID Appliance Installer, which is included on the E5700SG controller (the compute controller in the appliance).
Accessing and configuring SANtricity System Manager
You can use SANtricity System Manager to monitor the status of the storage disks and hardware components in your StorageGRID appliance. You can access this software by browsing to the IP address of management port 1 on the E2800 controller (the storage controller in the appliance).
Optional: Changing the RAID mode (SG5760 only)
If you have an SG5760 with 60 drives, you can change to a different RAID mode to accommodate your storage and recovery requirements. You can only change the mode before deploying the StorageGRID appliance Storage Node.
Optional: Remapping network ports for the appliance
You might need to remap the internal ports on the appliance Storage Node to different external ports. For example, you might need to remap ports because of a firewall issue.
