Installation
IMPORTANT - When you install new software on a storage system, do not remove or reboot an SP while installation is in progress. If you do, you risk leaving the storage system in a transient state where it cannot be restarted. Please wait for the entire upgrade process to complete and automatically reboot the SPs.

Installation Prerequisites for SAN Copy


To install and use the SAN Copy 1.X software (including the SAN Copy Graphical User Interface) on a CX600, CX400, or FC4700-Series storage system, you must have

Navisphere Manager 6.X installed on the SPs in at least one CX600, CX400, or FC4700-Series storage system in each domain. Access Logix must be installed. If you want to install SAN Copy on a storage system without Access Logix software installed (you acquired the storage system without Access Logix), then you must install Access Logix software that is compatible with the SAN Copy software you want to install, using Manager Software Installation.

Installing SAN Copy

If you ordered SAN Copy with a new storage system, it is installed when the storage system is initialized at your site. All CX600, CX400, and currently shipping FC4700-Series storage systems leave the factory with the Management Server Software installed on the storage system.

Installation

Installing SAN Copy .ndu Files To install SAN Copy on an existing storage system, follow the procedure in the software installation section of the EMC ControlCenter Navisphere Manager 6.X Administrators Guide (P/N 069001125). To do this, you will need all the ndu files listed in the EMC SAN Copy Software v1.x Media CD (see About the SAN Copy Media CDs table on Page 2). Installing SAN Copy GUI .ndu Files In addition to installing the SAN Copy ndu files mentioned above, you will also need to install the Management GUI and SAN Copy GUI ndu files. You can install these files on the same storage system as the SAN Copy driver or on another storage system that you will target with your browser. Both storage systems must be in the same EMC ControlCenter Navisphere domain. These files are provided on the Navisphere Manager v6.x Media CD (see About the SAN Copy Media CDs table on Page 2). Installing Optional .exe Files on a Windows Server (Portal) If you want to use a Windows PC or server as a portal in your Navisphere domain, you must install the Windows Management Server and Windows GUI executables on the portal. These executables are provided on the Navisphere Manager v6.x Media CD (see About the SAN Copy Media CDs table on Page 2).
When installing the Windows GUIs, you must select the SAN Copy GUI on the InstallShield Wizard.

Once you have installed these executables, refer to the EMC ControlCenter Navisphere Manager Version 6.X Installation Guide (P/N 069001172) for instructions on initializing the security and setting the management server settings for the server.

Installing admhost

The admhost utility is an executable program that you can run interactively via script. Currently, admhost is supported only on the following Microsoft Windows platforms: Windows NT only and Windows 2000. You must install admhost on each host from which you want to issue admhost commands.
For the supported versions of these operating systems, see the SAN Copy and admhost Release Notes.
