Configuring RAID chassis network and SNMP settings

Through Storage Utility you can configure the following settings on a RAID chassis:

  • IP address
  • Subnet mask
  • Gateway Address
  • SNMP trap destinations

Whenever you modify control network settings or FTP/streaming network settings on any device, you must then redeploy the hosts file if that is your name resolution mechanism.

Network and SNMP settings are set and stored on the RAID controller. Therefore, if the RAID chassis has two controllers, each controller must be configured separately, as in the following procedure.

  1. In the K2Config application tree view, open the node for a K2 Media Server and select the File System Server node to open its property page. On the property page click Launch Storage Utility. Storage Utility opens. You can now configure the network settings on the controller connected to the selected K2 Media Server.
  2. In the Storage Utility, right-click the icon for a RAID controller and select Configuration | Network Properties. The Network Settings dialog box opens.

  3. In the Controller Slot Number field enter 0 and then press Enter. The settings from controller 0 are loaded into the Controller Network Settings dialog box and are available for you to modify.
  4. Enter the control network IP address and other network settings.
  5. You want SNMP trap messages go to a SNMP manager, so for SNMP Configuration enter the IP address of the SNMP manager PC. You can also enter IP addresses for other SNMP managers to which you want to send SNMP trap messages.

    Refer to related topics about Grass Valley recommended deployment and monitoring solutions in the "About This Release" section of the K2 Topic Library.

  6. If the RAID chassis has two controllers, in the Controller Slot Number field enter 1 and then press Enter. The settings from controller 1 are loaded into the Controller Network Settings dialog box and are available for you to modify. Repeat the previous steps to configure controller 1.
  7. Click OK to save settings and close.
  8. Restart the RAID chassis to put SNMP configuration changes into effect.
