4 4 Converting the Protocol of E2800 Host Ports (New Systems) If you have a new E2800 storage array with Fibre Channel (FC) host, you can use these instructions to convert the host port protocol to iscsi. Important: If you want to convert the host port protocol of a storage array that has already been in use, you must refer to Converting the Protocol of E2800 Host Ports instead. Before starting this procedure, make sure that you have completed the following tasks. Note: To complete these tasks, follow the procedures in the Installation and Setup Instructions provided in the box with the storage array. Installed the storage array and drives. Powered on the storage array and management host. Connected by Ethernet to the SANtricity System Manager GUI. Since you are working with a new E2800, you should not have made any data host connections or configured the array. The following figure shows the back of an E2800 controller that has two SFP+ (optical) baseboard host and four SFP+ (optical) HIC. Callout 1 2 Type of host Two-port SFP+ (optical) baseboard Four-port SFP+ (optical) HIC Note: A two-port HIC is also available. The baseboard host and the HIC can use the same host protocol or different host protocols. The table shows which host you can convert using a feature pack.

6 6 Obtaining the feature pack To obtain the feature pack, you need the serial number from the controller shelf, a Feature Activation Code, and the Feature Enable Identifier for the storage array. Steps 1. Locate the serial number and the controller submodel ID. a. From SANtricity System Manager, select Support > Support Center. b. With the Support Resources tab selected, scroll to the View top storage array properties section. c. Locate the Chassis Serial Number, and copy this value to a text file. 2. Locate the Controller submodel ID, and use that value to look up the Feature Activation Code that applies to your starting configuration and your desired ending configuration. Then, copy the Feature Activation Code to a text file.

In System Manager, locate the Feature Enable Identifier. a. Go to Settings > System. b. Scroll down to Add-ons. c. Under Change Feature Pack, locate the Feature Enable Identifer. d. Copy and paste this 32-digit number to a text file. 4. Go to NetApp License Activation: Storage Array Premium Feature Activation, and enter the information required to obtain the feature pack. Chassis serial number Feature Activation Code Feature Enable Identifier Important: The Premium Feature Activation web site includes a link to Premium Feature Activation Instructions. Do not attempt to use those instructions for this procedure. 5. Choose whether to receive the key file for the feature pack in an or download it directly from the site.

8 8 Changing the feature pack You can change the feature pack to convert the host protocol of the baseboard host, the HIC, or both types of. Steps 1. From SANtricity System Manager, select Settings > System. 2. Under Add-ons, select Change Feature Pack. 3. Click Browse, and then select the feature pack you want to apply. 4. Type CHANGE in the field. 5. Click Change. The feature pack migration begins. Both controllers automatically reboot twice to allow the new feature pack to take effect. The storage array returns to a responsive state after the reboot is complete. 6. Confirm the host have the protocol you expect. a. From SANtricity System Manager, select Hardware. b. Click Show back of shelf. c. Select the graphic for either Controller A or Controller B. d. Select View settings from the context menu. e. Select the Host Interfaces tab. f. Click Show more settings. g. Review the details shown for the baseboard and the HIC (labeled slot 1 ), and confirm that each type of port has the protocol you expect.

9 9 After converting the protocol of the host (new systems) After converting the protocol of the host, follow the instructions in the SANtricity System Manager Express Guide or SANtricity Power Guide for Advanced Users for your operating system to complete the setup for each protocol.
