ONTap 8.2.3 7-mode - unable to connect to e0a

Hi, 

 

So I am having issues being able to configure, save and connect to whatever I set my e0a IP address to. The ip i am using is free on my network,  and I am able to ping it after setting it, but unable to connect via web or via Putty. 

 

Then, as soon as I reboot - all the config disappears. I assume there is a save command in Maintenance mode? 

 

Is it something really simple I am missing here? 

 

TIA for support.

Hello JKIME,

 

 

In 7-mode you need to edit:

/etc/rc

/etc/hosts

 

You must add your IP and the route (gateway)

To connect via GUI, you need to get Oncommand system manager.

For SSH, it should worked.

Thanks for the response - how do I go about editing the /etc/rc ?

to read:

 

rdfile /etc/rc

 

To write:

 

wrfile /etc/rc

 

Copy the content of rdfile first, perform the modify in a notepad then paste the new content with wrfile (press ctr c to exit after copying).

 

Hope it helps
