1 Installing and configuring the server
Setup overview
Your HP StorageWorks All-in-One Storage System comes preinstalled 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 management, and more efficient storage management.
Planning for installation
Before you install your HP StorageWorks All-in-One Storage System, you need to make a few decisions.
Determining a network access method
Before beginning setup and startup procedures, decide upon an access method to connect to the
storage system. The type of network access you select is determined by whether or not the network
has a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. If the network has a DHCP server, you
can access the storage system through the direct attachment, remote browser, Remote Desktop, or
remote management methods. If your network does not have a DHCP server, you must access the
storage system through the direct attachment method.
NOTE:
The direct attachment method requires a display, keyboard, and mouse.

“Configuring the server on the network” on page 30.
Installing and configuring the server26
Logging off and disconnecting
Remote Desktop provides two options when closing a client: you can either disconnect or log off the
system.
Disconnecting leaves the session running on the server. You can reconnect to the server and resume
the session. If you are performing a task on the server, you can start the task and disconnect from the
session. Later, you can log back on the server, re-enter the session, and either resume the task or
check results. This is especially helpful when operating over a remote connection on a long-distance
toll line.
Ending the session is known as logging off. Logging off ends the session running on the server. Any
applications running within the session are closed, and unsaved changes made to open files will be
lost. The next time you log onto the server, a new session is created.
Remote Desktop requires that all connecting users be authenticated, which is why users must log on
each time they start a session.
Telnet Server
Telnet Server is a utility that lets users connect to machines, log on, and obtain a command prompt
remotely. Telnet Server is preinstalled on the storage system, but must be activated before use.
CAUTION:
For security reasons, the Telnet Server is disabled by default. The service needs to be modified to enable
access to the storage system with Telnet.
Enabling Telnet Server
The Telnet Server service needs to be enabled prior to its access. The service can be enabled by
opening the services MMC:
1. Select Start > Run, and then enter services.msc.
2. Locate and right-click the Telnet service and then select Properties.
3. Choose one of the following:
• For the Telnet service to start up automatically on every reboot, in the Startup Type drop-down
box click Automatic, and then click OK.
• For the Telnet service to be started manually on every reboot, in the Startup Type drop-down
box click Manual, and then click OK.
On the storage system, access the command line interface either by Remote Desktop or a direct
connection, and then enter the following command:
net start tlntsvr

allows you to perform virtually any system administrator or maintenance task remotely as if you were
using its keyboard, mouse and monitor, power button and floppy, CD or USB key, whether or not the
server is operating. It is available on the AiO600 in two forms, iLO 2 Standard and iLO 2 Advanced.
iLO 2 Standard provides basic system board management functions, diagnostics and essential
Lights-Out functionality on supported storage systems. iLO 2 Advanced provides advanced remote
administration functionality as a licensed option, which is included with the HP All-in-One Storage
System.
The Integrated Lights-Out port on the storage system can be configured through the Rapid Startup
Wizard or through the iLO 2 ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). SNMP is enabled and the Insight
Management Agents are preinstalled.
