Configure the time zone. The script will ask if you want to set the time zone for DCM ONE. Enter Y. Figure 1-6. Answer Questions Posed by the Initialize.pl Script Getting Started Initial Setup b. You will select your time zone by choosing the correct options from lists presented to you by the script. Enter the numbers corresponding to the correct option from each of the following lists: – Continent or ocean – Country – Time zone Figure 1-7. The Time Zone List of the Initialize.pl Script c. The script will ask you to confirm the time zone choices you made. If they are correct, enter 1 for yes. If you need to change any time zone settings, enter 2 for no. d. Enter the current date and time the following format: mm/dd/yyyy HH:MM. For example: 05/25/2009 09:35 e. When prompted, enter the IP address you configured in “Configure the IP Settings” on page 1-17. Getting Started Initial Setup f. When prompted, enter the DCM ONE’s FQDN. Figure 1-8. Entering the IP Address and FQDN Let the initialization script continue to execute. When it is finished and you see a command prompt again, proceed with the next step. If you later change DCM Controller’s IP address, you must re-run the initialization script. Specify the RADIUS Clients Using vi or another text editor, edit the /etc/raddb/clients.conf file to include the switches that will use DCM ONE’s RADIUS service. For each client, include the IP address and the shared secret, which must match the secret configured on the switch. You should already be at the root command prompt of the DCM ONE. If you are not, repeat steps 1 and 2 on page 1-18 to get there. 1. From the root command prompt, enter: vi /etc/raddb/clients.conf Getting Started Initial Setup 2. Locate the Client line. Client { secret = shortname = } 3. Press i to enter insert mode. 4. Edit the following options: Replace with the IP address of a switch that will use the DCM module’s RADIUS server. Replace with the shared secret that will also be configured on the switch. Replace with a descriptive name for the switch only. 5. Press the Esc key to exit insert mode and return to command mode. 6. Enter the following to save your changes and exit the file: :wq 7. Reboot the DCM ONE module: reboot Access DCM ONE’s Web Browser Interface To access the DCM Web browser interface through a secure HTTPS session, open a browser window and enter the following URL: https://:8181/dcmWeb Getting Started Initial Setup Replace with the IP address you configured for the module in “Configure the IP Settings” on page 1-17: Figure 1-9. The Login Window for the Web Browser Interface 1. Enter manager as the user name and procurve as the password and click the Login button. Next Steps To begin provisioning your network for servers, refer to the HP ProCurve Datacenter Connection Manager Management and Configuration Guide. (This guide is targeted to network administrators.) HP ProCurve Networking has also provided the HP ProCurve Datacenter Connection Manager Server Administrators’ Guide to help server administrators use DCM ONE to subscribe, or assign, a connection to a new server that they want to add to the network. Both guides are available on the Web at: Getting Started Initial Setup 1-24 A Manually Editing DCM Files Manual Initialization HP ProCurve Networking provides an initialization script that prompts you for information about your HP ProCurve Datacenter Connection Manager (DCM) ONE module and then configures the appropriate DCM files. If you prefer to manually edit DCM files, rather than running the initialization script, you can complete the steps outlined in this section. (These steps replace “Run the Initialization Script” on page 1-18 in Chapter 1: “Getting Started.”) After you configure DCM ONE’s IP settings, you must access its operating system at the root level and edit several files. Complete the following steps. 1. Access the DCM ONE operating system at the root level. a. Use terminal software such as Tera Term or PuTTY to open a terminal session with DCM ONE. – An SSH session to DCM ONE’s IP address – A console session (connecting your management station to DCM ONE’s console port) b. Use the following credentials to log in: – Username: root – Root password: procurve The following prompt is displayed: ProCurve DCM (local host):~# Ca ut ion Be very careful when configuring DCM ONE from the root: misconfigurations can cause it to malfunction. You should be experienced with Linux systems before completing these steps. 2. Using vi or another Linux text editor, edit the /etc/hosts file so that it contains DCM’s IP address, a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), and host name. a. Enter: vi /etc/hosts Manually Editing DCM Files Manual Initialization 3. b. Locate the last two lines that show the IP address and FQDN. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168....
