The default configuration file is adequate if the main use of the Ethernet network will be to access the StoreOnce Management Console (GUI and Command Line Interface) remotely. It is also possible to create and modify configuration files manually. This will avoid any problems with the IP address of the device changing over reboots. A recommended configuration might be a bonded subnet on the 10GbE network for Networking overview 17 • . connect to the CLI using a console (keyboard and monitor) and use the StoreOnce CLI command: nl net show status all • There is a single StoreOnce CLI wizard command. See also More about the configuration file (page 22). It creates and activates a new configuration file. many users will require more flexible networking configurations. This is done via the StoreOnce CLI using an SSH application such as PuTTy. There are three options when configuring the network for the first time. the system Administrator should permanently associate that IP address with the StoreOnce Backup system. the HP StoreOnce Backup system will be immediately active on the network after installation. • Mode 6 (Active Load Balancing) This mode provides a load balance solution. or who do not want to connect to LAN port 1 must create and activate a network configuration file before their system can become active on the network.3ad Dynamic Link Aggregation) This bonding mode is also known as LACP and requires a special external switch configuration. It can be used in a 2–switch configuration.transferring data between network clients and Backup system. increasing the bond physical bandwidth but can only work if all the ports in the bond are connected to one switch or switches joined by an interswitch link. • Mode 4 (IEEE 802. as described in the HP StoreOnce Backup system CLI Reference guide. It does not require specific external switch configuration. in some environments ARP packet negotiation may be disabled within the network infrastructure. The network configuration wizard The wizard will guide you through the configuration of network settings on your StoreOnce Backup system. if the active network link fails then traffic moves to the backup port. Three bonding modes are supported: • Mode 1 (Active/Backup) This is the most simple bonding mode. This network configuration file may use any available Ethernet port. it allows network traffic via one active port only and requires no specific extra switch configuration. It is recommended when : ◦ ◦ The customer wants to increase throughput to the StoreOnce appliance Trunks between switches on the customer network already use LACP mode The LACP protocol only works when it is configured on both the server and StoreOnce end of the connection. but one must always be connected for access to the StoreOnce Management Console remotely. Please refer to your switch documentation for information on LACP configuration. • Users who do not have a DHCP-enabled 1GbE network. otherwise data will still use only one network path from the single server. NOTE: It should be noted that when using bonded ports the full performance of both links will only be realized if multiple host servers are providing data. However. and a bonded subnet on the 1GbE ports for management of the appliance on a 1GbE subnet. This configuration is generally recommended for backup data performance and also for resiliency of both data and management network connectivity. Network bonding modes Each pair of network ports on the appliance can be configured either on separate subnets or in a bond with each other (1GbE and 10GbE ports cannot be bonded together). It provides a link aggregation solution. but does require the switch to allow ARP negotiation. so this mode may not be appropriate. The wizard consists of the following steps: 18 Network configuration .

(See next section. iSCSI and FC installation and configuration . but coexistence of the multipath software and tape devices). • • Small fabric (16 ports or less)—may not need zoning. and tape libraries to only see what hosts and targets they need to see and use. Zoning provides a way for servers. It may be necessary to perform a system re-scan. it is best to make use of zoning tools to help keep the backup/restore environment simple and less susceptible to the effects of changing or problematic SANs.128 ports)—use host-centric zoning. Due to complexities in multi-hosting tape devices on SANs. Typically the bigger the SAN is. Host-centric zoning prevents a server from detecting any other devices on the SAN or including other servers.5. Splitting disk and tape targets into separate zones will help to keep the HP StoreOnce Backup • • 40 Drivers.

Configure zones on the FC Fabric/Switch. the more zoning is needed. ahead of the virtual devices. At this time these devices are part of the StoreOnce VTL implementation and are not an error or fault condition. The S/N-MY5040204H string is an indication of the QLC HBA’s SN not any SN of an appliance/node. dedicate HBAs for disk and tape. Often the diagnostic device will be listed above the other virtual devices as it logs in first. this means there are wo ports for an HP D2D41 12. if Port 2. Diagnostic Fibre Channel Device For each FC port there will be a Diagnostic Fibre Channel Device presented to the Fabric.system free from discovering disk controllers which it doesn't need to see. where practical. the Node Name string will end with “Port-2”. If this is Node Port 1. 4312 or 4324 appliance. the Node Name string will be as above but. There will be one per active FC physical port. Fibre Channel configuration 41 . The Diagnostic Fibre Channel device can be identified by the following example text: Symbolic Port Name "HP D2D S/N-CZJ1440JBS HP D2DBS Diagnostic Fibre Channel S/N-MY5040204H Port-1" Symbolic Node Name "HP D2D S/N-CZJ1440JBS HP D2DBS Diagnostic Fibre Channel S/N-MY5040204H" A virtual driver or loader would be identified by the following example text: Symbolic Port Name "HP D2D S/N-CZJ1440JBS HP Ultrium 4-SCSI Fibre Channel S/N-CZJ1440JC5 Port-0" Symbolic Node Name "HP D2D S/N-CZJ1440JBS HP Ultrium 4-SCSI Fibre Channel S/N-CZJ1440JC5" In the above the S/N-CZJ1440JBS for all devices should be identical. NOTE: Overlapping zones are supported. It is recommended that these devices be removed from the switch zone that is also used for virtual drives and loaders. For optimal performance. 6 Completing the installation To complete the installation you should use StoreOnce CLI commands: • • • • • • Set the time and date and NTP server. as shown in the following example: # time show config NTP Server(s) .

NAS and Replication implementations document on the HP Manuals page for detailed guidance. Performance Your HP StoreOnce Backup system is designed for high performance backup and restore operations according to the specification documented. The limit for Windows or Linux hosts using the iSCSI interface is 64. it requires careful configuration. Power off and power on There are no commands within the GUI to control the power on/off or reboot the appliance. It is possible to configure more drive and library devices than a host can access. The LEDs on the 10GbE card (at the rear of the HP StoreOnce Backup system) also help identify network activity. Network For iSCSI devices the HP StoreOnce Backup system is designed to be run on a 1Gb or 10Gb (HP StoreOnce 44xx Series) network. There are many reasons why you may not see the performance you expected from your HP StoreOnce Backup system. make sure that the media servers and PCs are configured correctly to select the 10GbE network for data transfer. All the commands should be run from the StoreOnce CLI. Or use iLO2 to monitor the network ports. Your HP Backup system is not optimized for your network and application. The server will be in the off state. Power off system shutdown: This gracefully shuts down the appliance by shutting down all services before powering down the server. This means when you power back up.NOTE: There are practical limitations on the number of devices that each host and FC switch or HBA can access. Also. Your backup application is not optimized. and will require powering on via the power button or StoreOnce CLI. Powering up servers Power up the server using the power on button on the server to trigger a cold boot and automatically power up. Please refer to the StoreOnce Best Practices for VTL. Using the 10Gb ports (HP StoreOnce B44xx only) If data transfer seems slow: • • • Check that the 10Gb ports are configured. the deduplication stores will start up from a clean state. Although the Fibre Channel connection supports a greater theoretical number of devices per FC port on a host or switch. • • • Your own network speed or disk access is not fast enough to allow streaming of data. Performance will be reduced if a 100BaseT network is used. However. The LEDs on the front panel (1–Gb ports only) and on the network ports and also warnings on the Web Management Interface will indicate the network speeds at which the device is operating. it is recommended that no more than 64 devices are configured for use by a single host. Delete the share on the HP StoreOnce Backup system without unmounting it from the Linux box. the system Health LED on the front panel will probably be flashing RED. Power On/Off Problems NOTE: It is not possible to power the HP StoreOnce Backup system on or off from the GUI. When powering off the HP StoreOnce Backup system make sure no backup or restore jobs are running or scheduled to run while the HP StoreOnce Backup system is out of action. Reboot and check for hardware errors as the HP StoreOnce Backup system device boots up. Ensure both power supplies are connected and reboot to clear this LED. If it shuts down again. HP StoreOnce Backup system system Health LED is flashing RED (HP 4200 and 4400 Series) One of the two power supplies is faulty or not connected to power at power on time. This means on reboot the deduplication stores will start up from a clean state. It is recommended to power on the second power supply or replace the power supply as soon as possible. If the Power LED is AMBER: If the Power LED is GREEN but you cannot log in. Cannot access a storage shelf (HP StoreOnce 42xx and 44xx Backup systems) If you disconnect a storage shelf. If the Power LED is OFF: • • • • Check power is connected to the HP StoreOnce Backup system and is on.Rebooting the system system reboot: This gracefully reboots the appliance by shutting down all services before powering down the server. Cannot access a storage shelf (HP StoreOnce 42xx and 44xx Backup systems) 51 . see (page 51). Check the LED on the PSU to ensure it is not faulty (it should be green). 2. Reboot and watch for errors on boot up. Do not daisy chain storage shelves. you must reconnect it to the same port to which it was originally connected. but without any redundancy. The normal boot sequence can take up to 10 minutes. 3. causing a warning condition. Power on the HP StoreOnce Backup system using the Power button. The PSU may be faulty. Recreate the share again with the same name. HP StoreOnce Backup system shuts down automatically If the HP StoreOnce Backup system has found a problem with the internal hardware which requires the device to shutdown to avoid further hardware problems. Create an NFS share and mount it on a Linux box. On power up the HP StoreOnce Backup system runs its fans at high speed for approximately 10 seconds before returning to normal speed. The HP StoreOnce Backup system will work satisfactorily with one power supply. Cannot connect to a NAS share The following sequence will cause problems when connecting to a NAS share. HP StoreOnce Backup system does not boot up correctly Check the Power LED on the front panel. 1. but when trying to access the old mount point it will use the previous set of inodes and will therefore not manage to connect. the Linux client will assign a new set of inodes to the new share. Reboot the host Linux system and the connection will work again.In this scenario. 52 Troubleshooting . French. tabs.hp.
