Setting Up a Basic Network

A basic network can be setup by assigning static IP addresses to the interfaces in the nodes, when DHCP is not available or enabled.

Procedure

1. Login to a node using the following credentials:

   Login: root

   Password: cvadmin

   Note: This password can be changed during setup.

2. Navigate to the following folder:

   /opt/commvault/MediaAgent

3. Execute the following command to generate an input configuration file:

   ./cvconfignw.py genconfig <output configuration file path>

4. Edit the configuration file to add the device name, IP, gateway and name server details.

   [network]
   device =
   ipaddr =
   gateway =
   nameserver1 =
   nameserver2 =
   netmask =

   Where:

   device is the network interface name, surrounded by parenthesis ( ).

   For example:

   The entries in this file should be similar to the following:

   [network]
   device =(enpsf3)
   ipaddr =101.102.103.104
   gateway =101.100.100.100
   nameserver1 =103.99.99.1
   nameserver2 =104.99.99.2
   netmask =100.100.100.1
   
   device =(enpsf5)
   ipaddr =20.20.226.297
   gateway =101.100.100.100
   nameserver1 =103.99.99.1
   nameserver2 =104.99.99.2
   netmask =100.100.100.1

   Note: You would have to repeat the entries to define the data protection and storage pool networks.

5. Execute the following command to apply the settings:

   ./cvconfignw.py configure <config file path>

Repeat these steps in the other nodes.
