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
- Login to a node using the following credentials:
Login: root
Password: cvadmin
Note: This password can be changed during setup.
- Navigate to the following folder:
/opt/commvault/MediaAgent
- Execute the following command to generate an input configuration file:
./cvconfignw.py genconfig <output configuration file path>
- 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 =100.100.100.1Note: You would have to repeat the entries to define the data protection and storage pool networks.
- Execute the following command to apply the settings:
./cvconfignw.py configure <config file path>
Repeat these steps in the other nodes.
