1 Setup overview

Your HP ProLiant Storage Server comes pre-installed with the Windows® Storage Server 2003 R2 operating system. Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 extends the Windows Storage Server 2003 operating system, providing a more efficient way to manage and control access to local and remote resources. In addition, Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 provides a scalable, security-enhanced Web platform for simplified branch server management, improved identity and access man agement, and more efficient storage management.
The HP ProLiant D ata Protection Storage Server is an HP ProLiant Storage Server preinstalled with Microsoft® System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM) software and preconfigured with optimized storage settings to deliver a rapid, reliable disk -to-disk backup and recovery solution.

Planning for installation

Before you install your H P ProLiant Storage Server, you need to make a few up-front decisions.
Determining a network access method
Before beginning setup and startup procedures, decide upon an access method to connect to the storage server. The type of network access you select is determined by whether or not the network has a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, as shown in Table 2. Figure 1 shows the types of network access methods that are available and provides more information about each one.

Planning a network configuration

Y ou use the Rapid Startup Wizard to configure your storage server. This wizard is displayed automatically when you first start your system. Before you run the Rapid Startup Wizard, it is helpful to gather together the network configuration information you need, including:
User name and administrator password (the system provides you
with defaults you need to change)
E-mail addresses to set up system alerts
SNMP settings
Local area network (LAN) configuration settings
To help you gather this information, see Configuring the server on the
network on page 31.

Configuration checklist

Use the following checklist to make sure you have completed all configuration tasks for your HP ProLiant Storage Server. The steps for each task are explained in more detail in subsequent chapters of this guide.

client without using a browser. This method requires the client to have Windows Remote Desktop capability.
IMPORTANT:
An IP address can be substituted for a storage server’s serial number when using either Remote Browser or Remote Desktop methods to access the HP Data Protection Storage Server Management console.

Using the Direct Attach method

You can access the HP Data Protection Storage Server Management console using a monitor, mouse, and keyboard directly attached to the storage server.
To connect the storage ser ver to a network using the Direct Attach method

1. Log in to the HP P roLiant Data Protection Storage Server with the
default user name administrator and the password hpinvent.TheHP ProLiant Data Protection Storage Server Management Console and the Rapid Startup Wizard start automatically.
NOTE:
You can change the administrator name and password when you configure the server using the Rapid Startup Wizard. See Rapid Startup Wizard on page 34.
2. To complete network configuration using the Rapid Startup Wizard,
see Configuring the server on the network on page 31.

Using the Remote Bro wser method

The storage server ships with DHCP enabled on the network port. If the sever is placed on a DHCP-enabled network and the serial number of the device is known, the server can be accessed through a client running Internet Ex plorer 5.5 (or later) on that network, using the TCP/IP 3202 port.
IMPORTANT:
Before you begin this procedure, ensure that you have the following:
Windows-based PC loaded with Internet Explorer 5.5 (or later) on
thesamelocalnetworkasthestorageserver
DHCP-enabled network
Serial number or IP address of the storage server
To connect the server to a network using the Remote Browser method, you must first ensure that the client is configured to download signed ActiveX controls.
To enable ActiveX controls
1. On the remote client machine, open the Internet Explorer web browser
and select Tools > Internet Options > Security.

To co nnect the storage server to a network using the Remote Browser method
1. On the remote client machine, open Internet Explorer and
enter https:// and the serial number of the storage server followed by a hyphen (-), and then:3202. For example, https://D4059ABC3433-:3202. Press Enter.
NOTE:
If you are able to determine the IP address from your DHCP server, you can substitute the IP address for the serial number and hyphen. For example: 192.100.0.1:3202.
2. Click OK on the Security Alert prompt.
3. Log in to the HP ProLiant Data Protection Storage Server Management
console with the default user name administrator and the password hpinvent. The HP ProLiant Data Protection Storage Server Management Console and the Rapid Startup Wizard start automatically.
NOTE:
You can change the administrator name and password when you configure the server using the Rapid Startup
Wizard on page 34.
4. To complete network configuration using the Rapid Startup Wizard,
see Configuring the server on the network on page 31.
IMPORTANT:
If you are using the Remote Browser method to access the HP Data Prote
ction Storage Server Management console and Rapid Startup Wizard, always close the remote session before closing your Internet browser. Closing the Internet browser does not close the remote session. Failure to close your rem sessions allowed on the storage server at any g
ote session impacts the limited number of remote
iven time.
