6.1.2 Start IP Address Setting

In order to have Storage Cruiser's agent communicate with Storage Cruiser's manager on the correct LAN path, set the "Start IP address" as the IP address (IP address in the administrative LAN) to be used for data communication by the Managed Server.

For Solaris, Linux, HP-UX or AIX environment, set the Start IP address as described in procedure below.
For Windows environment, this procedure is required only when Storage Cruiser's agent was installed in either of the following ways:

The Silent Installation function was installed by default.
The Silent Installation function was customized and installed without specifying any IP address for "Agent_server_IP_address" in the installation parameter file.

For Windows Environment

If Storage Cruiser's agent is currently running, stop its services.
1. Open the Services screen.
  - For Windows Server 2012 or later
    Click Control Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools > Services.
  - For Windows environment other than above
    Click Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.
2. Select "ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser Agent" and then click Stop.
Set the Start IP address to Storage Cruiser's agent.
```
> $INS_DIR\ESC\Agent\bin\setagtip -i ipAddress
```
$INS_DIR is "Program Directory" specified at the Storage Cruiser's agent installation.

For Solaris, Linux, HP-UX or AIX Environment

If Storage Cruiser's agent is currently running, execute the following command to stop it.
```
# /opt/FJSVssage/bin/pstorageagt
```
Set the Start IP address to Storage Cruiser's agent.
```
# /opt/FJSVssage/bin/setagtip -i ipAddress
```

About Setting Values for Start IP Address

Depending on the IP address configuration on the Managed Server, make the following settings:

If only one IP address is set up on the Managed Server, specify that IP address.
If multiple IP addresses are set up on the Managed Server, select and specify a Start IP address from the network configuration of the Managed Server and the Management Server. Basically, you should specify an IP address that is set up in the LAN on the route side of the Management Server.
In firewall and other environments applying IP address translation (e.g. NAT), do not set up the IP address of the server itself but an IP address that can receive transmissions from the Management Server.

Note

The following notes apply when using the IPv6 address.

Only the global address is supported.
Web Console displays the IP address in accordance with RFC5952. As such, the IP address format displayed may differ from the content specified using this command.
