    The document provides instructions for connecting a laptop to the VxRail management network and changing the IP address of the VxRail Manager virtual machine. It describes connecting the laptop to the top-of-rack switch, pinging the default VxRail Manager IP to confirm connectivity, SSH'ing into the VxRail Manager VM and using the vami_set_network command to assign a static IP address, netmask and gateway before joining the VxRail cluster to an external vCenter. An alternate method is also provided to change the default VxRail Manager IP address after powering on the nodes but before running the setup process.

    Note: The default IP address for VxRail Manager is ‘192.168.10.200’.

    If you were unable to change


    VxRail Manager’s temporary IP address, follow the tasks below to add an IP address in the ‘192.168.10.x’
    range to the Ethernet interface

    8. [ ] Open Advanced…
    9. [ ] Select Add..
    10. [ ] Configure an IP address to connect on the same subnet as the VxRail Manager (default is
    192.168.10.x/24)

    Establish connection to VxRail External Management Network


    Note: Skip this task if a jump host is provided at the customer data center to connect to the VxRail
    external management network

    Task 26: Connect laptop to top-of-rack switch


    1. [ ] Locate an open Ethernet port on the top-of-rack switch connected to the VxRail nodes
    2. [ ] Configure the switch port for access mode
    3. [ ] Connect laptop to the port on top-of-rack switch

    Task 27: Confirm VxRail Manager network connectivity


    1. [ ] Open a DOS shell on the laptop or jump host
    2. [ ] Execute: ping –t 192.168.10.200

    Set the static IP address and default gateway for the VxRail
    Manager VM
    Note: Prior to joining the VxRail cluster to an external vCenter, it is best practice to assign the permanent
    IPv4 address and default gateway to the VxRail Manager VM.

    1. [ ] Using PuTTy or other SSH client, establish an ssh session to the default IP address for the
    VxRail Manager VM (192.168.10.200)
    2. [ ] Log into the VxRail Manager VM with the following username and password:
    Username:mystic
    Password:VxRailManager@201602!

    Note: Username and password is case sensitive.

    3. [ ] Change to the root user account


    su root <enter>
    Enter the administrator account password
    Passw0rd! <enter>
    4. [ ] Change the network settings using the following command:
    /opt/vmware/share/vami/vami_set_network eth0 STATICV4 <IP> <netmask>
    <gateway>

    Note: The <IP>, <netmask> and <gateway> are all available from the PEQ

    Figure 34 Sample command to change VxM network settings

    Task 28: (Alternate Method)Change the VxM IP before first run.


    Note: By default, the VxM IP is 192.168.10.200 when shipping from Dell manufacturing. However, this
    address may not work well in customer’s network environment.

    Note: Customer’s local support wants a script to change the default VxM IP address after power on, so
    that they can login the web interface of VxM to start the first run.

    1. [ ] Power on all the nodes, wait for the primary node election to complete and VxM is powered on in
    that primary node.
    2. [ ] Select any node of the Cluster.
    3. [ ] Press “F2” and log into the DCUI with root credentials (default password is Passw0rd!).
