Configuring system date and time settings

Configuring system date and time settings

In the DR Series system GUI, you can configure date and time settings, for example, to synchronize with other DR Series systems or clients running in your domain.

 
NOTE: System synchronization is critical for proper data archiving and replication service operations.

The Date and Time information settings displayed in the system GUI include:

•
Mode
•
Time Zone
•
Date and Time

To modify the default time and date settings for your DR Series system, complete the following steps:

1.
In the left navigation menu, click System Configuration > Date and Time.

The Date and Time page is displayed, showing the following information:

◦
Mode—one of two types: Manual and Network Time Protocol (NTP).
 
NOTE: Dell recommends using NTP when the DR Series system is part of a workgroup and not part of a domain to ensure better replication service operations. By using the NTP mode, you synchronize your system clock whereby NTP ensures that your system has a reliable time stamp. This is critical for successful file exchanges, network log coordination and validation, and resource access requests within a workgroup. When the DR Series system is joined to a domain, such as the Microsoft Active Directory Services (ADS) domain, NTP is disabled and the DR Series system uses the domain time.
◦
Time Zone—you can select from a list of time zone options around the world.
◦
NTP Servers—when using NTP mode, you can define up to three NTP servers.
◦
Date and Time—when in Manual mode, the date and time can be shown as month, day, and time in a 24-hour time format.
2.
In the upper right corner of the page, click Edit.
 
NOTE: If the DR Series system is joined to a Microsoft Active Directory Services (ADS) domain, the Edit option will not be available and the Mode, Time Zone, or Date and Time values cannot be changed. If a DR Series system is joined to a domain, the Network Time Protocol (NTP) is disabled and the DR Series system uses the domain-based time service. NTP is used in the Mode setting when the DR Series system is part of a workgroup and not joined to a domain.
3.
Next to Mode, select either Manual or NTP.
◦
If you select Manual, follow these steps.
1.
In the Time Zone drop-down list, select a time zone.
2.
In the Date and Time drop-down calendar, select the date and then click the arrows to adjust the hour:minute:seconds for the time.
◦
If you select NTP, follow these steps.
1.
In the Time Zone drop-down list, select a time zone.
2.
Enter or edit the NTP server information. You can enter information for the following three entries: Ntp Server 0 (required), Ntp Server 1, Ntp Server 2.
4.
Click Save.

Configuring DR Series system enclosures

Configuring DR Series system enclosures

To properly set up, add, and connect an expansion shelf enclosure to a DR Series system hardware appliance, you need to complete the following tasks.
1.
Power off the DR Series system.
2.
Install all cabling that connects the external expansion shelf (or shelves) to the DR Series system (For information, see the topic, “Understanding DR Series System Expansion Shelf Cabling”).
3.
Power on the external expansion shelf (or shelves), and then

power on the DR Series system.

4.
Install the Dell license for the expansion shelf enclosures.
5.
In the DR Series system GUI, add and activate the expansion shelf enclosure (as described in the steps below).

To view, add and activate expansion shelves in the DR Series system GUI, complete the following steps:

1.
In the left navigation menu, click System Configuration > Enclosures.
The Enclosures page is displayed. (This step assumes that you have completed all expansion shelf enclosure cable connections and that green LEDs are displayed next to the fastplugs on the rear chassis, indicating that cable connections are active.) On this page, you can view information about expansion shelf enclosures in the Physical Storage list, which displays the following information:
◦
Type — Designates whether the enclosure is internal or external (noted as Enclosure-1, Enclosure-2)
◦
Raw size—Lists the total capacity size on the device.
◦
Percentage Used—Lists the percentage of used capacity.
◦
Service Tag—Lists the service tag number for the enclosure.
◦
Configured—Lists whether the enclosure has been configured. Possible values are: "Yes," "No," and "Device not Found."
◦
Status—Displays a status icon as a green check mark or a red icon with a white X.
2.
To add an expansion shelf, in the Physical Storage list, in the Action column, click Detect next to the Enclosure (1 or 2) that you want to add.
The Detect Enclosure dialog is displayed.
3.
Click OK to continue adding the enclosure to the DR Series system.
 
NOTE: If the enclosure is undetected, wait 5 minutes and try again. If the enclosure still remains undetected, keep the enclosure powered on and reboot your DR Series system appliance.
4.
Once the previous step completes, to verify that an enclosure was added, you can view it in the list of Enclosures or click Dashboard→ Health.
