Setting Up a Controller
Once hardware has been racked and cabled and any FC switches that provide server
connectivity have been configured and zoned, you configure and identify a controller.
Configuring a controller includes the following tasks:
• Connect to a Controller on page 3
• Reset Hardware and System Serial Numbers on page 4
• Set IP Addresses on page 5
If you have a dual-controller system, you will configure both controllers using the serial
connection. For documentation purposes we call the controller you assign the lower serial
number as Controller 1 and the other as Controller 2. Configure Controller 1 and then
configure Controller 2.
