Hello Team,

We have installed Ontap 9.7 simulator ova. Created two node cluster setup and we are trying to access UI using url
http://<cluster management ip> but UI is inaccessible. Also tried installing System manager software 3.1.3. but no success to load ui. Could you pls check and share steps if changed for 9.7 ?

You will have to set up the system with the (vmware) console during the first start to create/define management IP addresses
Make sure, the ports are in the correct subnets (I'm on VMware workstation and had to correct it sometimes)
Use HTTPS and accept warnings to connect despite self-signed certificates
Do not use the System Manager sofftware! It's only for ancient pre-8.3 systems.
