LAN for Operation Management
The ETERNUS DX Disk storage system must be connected to the LAN for operation manage-
ment. When remote support is used, information on errors of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage
system or other events can be notified to the remote support center.
This section explains how the LAN control controller of the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system
operates.

LAN Control Controller (Master CM/Slave CM)
For a dual-controller type, the controller (CM) that is given the authority to manage the LAN is
called the Master CM and the other CM is called the Slave CM.
When an error occurs in the Master CM or LAN, the Master CM is switched automatically.
IP addresses of the LAN ports are not assigned to each CM. These IP addresses are assigned to
the role of master or slave. If the Master CM is switched, the same IP addresses are reused.
Therefore, even if the Master CM is switched and the physical port is changed, access can be
maintained via the same IP addresses.
