About this task

After each step, return to the initialization wizard to check whether the Next button is enabled. If it is still disabled, continue with the next step in these instructions.
Note: Unless stated, complete all checks and actions on the personal computer that is running the initialization tool.
Use the following instructions to enable the Next button on the initialization wizard:

Procedure

  1. Verify that the USB flash drive is fully inserted in by gently pushing into the USB port.
  2. Verify that the USB flash drive is in the same USB port that you used when you started the initialization wizard. If it is not, move the USB flash drive to the correct USB port.
  3. On the rear of the control enclosure, verify the system status LED (This image represents the system status LED.) for the canister that you used during initialization is permanently on. The system status LED is located with the other LEDs on the node canister:
    This figure shows the LEDs on the node canister.

    If the status LED is permanently on, proceed to 4. If the status LED is not permanently on, return to your personal computer on and complete the following checks and actions:

    1. Remove the USB flash drive from the USB port.
    2. Re-insert the USB flash drive into the USB port and verify that the personal computer recognized the USB flash drive. If the USB flash drive is not recognized, go to IBM Support Web site and download the initialization tool package. Use the instructions available on the support site to save the tool to a supported USB flash drive. After saving the tool to the USB flash drive, restart the initialization wizard.
  4. If the status LED is permanently on, the system has successfully initialized. Complete these steps to complete system setup:
    1. In a supported browser, enter the management IP address of your system. This is the IP address that you specified during initialization.
    2. On the log in panel, enter superuser for the user name and passw0rd for the password.
      Note: These are the default user name and password and must be changed to protect your system.
    3. Complete the System Setup wizard to configure basic settings for your system.
