Use the following procedure to log in to VSP One Block Administrator.

Verify the following:

  • Make sure that the management client OS and browser requirements are met.
  • Make sure that the pop-up blocker is disabled in the browser settings.
  • Protocol

    Specify a valid protocol in the storage system settings.

    For SSL communication, use https. For non-SSL communication, use http.

  • IP address of the storage system

    Specify the IP address (service IP) set in the maintenance utility.

  • Username
  • Password
Note:
  • If you do not perform any operations for a certain length of time, a session timeout will occur. If a session timeout occurs, you are logged out from the VSP One Block Administrator even if an operation was in progress. For details, refer to your browser settings or the System Administrator Guide.
  • For details on the TLS versions and cryptographic algorithms (cipher suites) that can be used for SSL communications, see the System Administrator Guide.
  1. Open a web browser and specify the following URL:
    protocol://IP-address-of-storage-system/

    If the web browser repeatedly fails to open, close all active browser windows, and then clear the web browser cache.

    If the web browser fails to open even after you clear the cache, start the maintenance utility by specifying the following URL, and then check for alerts:

    protocol://IP-address-of-storage-system/MaintenanceUtility/

    To check for alerts, log in to the maintenance utility as a user with the Support Personnel (User) role.

  2. Enter a user name and password, and then log in.
    • Use the following account when logging in for the first time:

      User name: maintenance

      Contact your administrator for the password.

    • If the login fails and a message appears requesting you to change your password, change the password in the maintenance utility and then log in to VSP One Block Administrator again.
    • After three consecutive unsuccessful login attempts, the account will be locked for 60 seconds.

      If a lockout policy has been set, the system will behave in accordance with those settings. For details, see the section explaining password policies in the System Administrator Guide.

    • If a failure occurs in one ESM, the task is automatically switched to the other ESM, and you must log in again. Note that when you click the login button, the following message appears and it might take time before you can log in again:
      Server busy. Wait a few minutes and then try again.
