Initial Conguration
The initial conguration consists of six conguration steps.
1. Network
2. DNS
3. Time
4. Name Services (NIS,LDAP,Active Directory)
5. Storage
6. Registration& Support
Prerequisites
The initial conguration of the system is conductedafter powering it onfor the rst time and
establishing a connection, as documented in the
Installation section, also available as aPDF on
http://wikis.sun.com/display/shworks/Documentation. (http://wikis.sun.com/display/
fishworks/Documentation.)
Note that the option to perform initial congurationof a cluster isonly available in theBUI. If
electing this option, read the clustering documentation beforebeginning initial conguration
for detailed additional steps that are required forsuccessful cluster setup. Alternatively,
cluster-capable appliances may be initially congured for standaloneoperation using the
following procedure and re-congured for cluster operation ata later time.
Summary
This procedure will congure networking connectivity, several clientnetwork services, and the
layout of the storage pool for standalone operation.When completed, the applianceis ready for
use - but may not have any sharescongured for remote clientsto access. See the Shares section
for how to create shares. Refer to theConguration section for other availablesettings and to
revisit those from the initial conguration. See
http://wikis.sun.com/display/shworks
(http://wikis.sun.com/display/fishworks)
for the Shares and Conguration sectionsof
the System Administration Guide.
This procedure may be repeated at a latertime by clicking the"INITIAL SETUP" button on the
System screen or by entering the maintenance system setup context in the CLI.
