Note:

If you use the Microsoft Edge browser and the period of inactivity exceeds a certain length of time, you are logged out from the Storage Advisor Embedded session. Either turn off the sleep tab function, or add Storage Advisor Embedded to the sites for which the sleep state is not applied.

Open a web browser and specify the following URL:
```
protocol://IP-address-of-storage-system/
```
Note:
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 as a user registered in the Maintenance user group (a built-in user group).
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.

The account will be locked for 60 seconds after three consecutive unsuccessful login attempts.
