IP address worksheet

Use this worksheet to specify the IP addresses assigned to the TS7650G or TS7650 Appliance components. IBM service representatives use the information provided to define the IP addresses of components supported by the TSSC. When the TSSC sends Call Home information to IBM through VPN or modem, or sends you notices about serviceable events, these settings will be included in the information to identify and provide important information about the TSSC that sent a service request.

Table 1 and Table 3 show the default IP addresses for the TS7650G and TS7650 Appliance servers with VTL configurations.

Table 2 and Table 4 show the default IP addresses for the TS7650G and TS7650 Appliance servers with OpenStorage or FSI configurations.

Table 6 shows the IP address, network mask, DNS and VLAN settings for the source and destination servers for replication. This information is needed to configure the individual ports to communicate and transfer data over the replication network. Write this information in the spaces provided for future reference. Table 7 shows the host names and other settings needed for replication. Write the appropriate information in the spaces provided for future reference.

Table 8 shows the default IP addresses for the TSSC.

Attention:

All components use subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
Do not configure the replication ports on the same subnet as the external LAN port Eth0. Doing so may cause replication errors.

ProtecTIER® exposes virtual interfaces to the host, such as a media server with the plug-in installed. In version 3.3.6, the physical Ethernet ports are assigned to one virtual application interface. Currently, the physical ports are assigned to virtual interface ost1 or fsi1, depending on the server configuration. This assignment option is used to group several physical interfaces into a single virtual interface, and create a bond configuration of several physical interfaces. Each virtual interface used must be configured with a corresponding IP address.

Attention: Each configured IP address on the same server needs to be on a different subnet, and each subnet needs to be on a different VLAN. If separate subnets and VLAN’s are not used, in certain environments and networks, network packets can move to other subnets, which can harm network performance and potentially reduce the network's quality of service.

In addition, each virtual interface containing more than one physical interface (configured as a bond) needs to be configured with a load balancing method. For a server with 10 Gb interfaces, where bonding is implemented, the recommended load balancing method is LACP with L3L4.

For more information about bonding, the different load balancing methods, and whether to configure bonds at all, refer to the Best Practices Guide for IBM® System Storage TS7600 ProtecTIER Deduplication Solutions, GA32-0924 or the IBM ProtecTIER Implementation and Best Practices, IBM Redbooks® publication SG24-8025.
