You only need to do that on one of the storage processors (not SAN's:)).  And this is what these forums are for so ask away.  Quote  BTW: my mistake, it was not Add User, it was New User, when I PPP's into  the SAN.  if that option is available, give it a try and see if you can login with that new account before you destroy the security.   I just dont remember that being there before:)  from your picture,  if standing at the back, Storage Processor A is on the right.   It shouldnt matter which one you do it from.  normally when you initalize security, it picks the IP address of SPA.  It will communicate the changes to the other storage processor so they are both insync
I have a Clariion CX300 SAN, and recently I was asked to migrate from an old server to a new server (all Windows 2003 servers), the one one being attached to this SAN.  My issue, is that when I tried to get into the SAN via the web interface, I did not know the username nor the password.  Obviously I need to get into the SAN to assign "groups" to the new server, so that the SAN's resources will show up on the new server.  I read somewhere here about getting into the SAN via the console cable using a PPP connection, and then clicking on New User to create another administrator account.  Heres my new problem(s):  I was able to get into the SAN via the console port, but I see nothing there that states New User, so I dont see a way that I can get into this device as an Administrator.  I do not want to reset any Domain security, as the security is crazy here, especially being that the old server, with the SAN being attached (and showing as a physical resource - Hard drives) has many, many AD security groups assigned to the many, many (very many, lol) folders that are on the SAN.  So, with that in mind, does anyone know how I can get into this SAN as an administraor without doing anything to the SAN's and the AD security groups?  Please bear in mind, that I am fairly new to SAN's, and also im running out of time to get this going, and the last thing I want to do, is copy all the info from the SAN onto a Hard drive on the new server, and then have to go and assign the many, many security groups to the folder I copy onto the server, change a lot of GPO's, and logon script.......  thank you in advance for any help you can offer me, and hopefully there is a solution to getting this done.  j
