This section describes configuration tasks that you may need, either
before or after making the server available to clients.
Server Name
Configuration
Æ
General
Æ
System Information
page
By default, the server name is “HPHDSERV
hhhhhh
” where
“
hhhhhh
” are the last six digits of the server’s MAC address (LAN
or hardware address). You may change this name for your server,
which is used to advertise the system on the network. This setting
takes effect after the next restart (see page 4-13).
You can also fill in other contact information on this page so that it
will be available to all clients who view the
Identity
page
(illustrated on page 4-3) and to some remote management
applications or services (see “SNMP” on page 4-12).
Date and Time
Configuration
Æ
General
Æ
Date & Time
page
Accurate time keeping is critical for accurate file backups and
version control. Note that the
Time Zone
and
Daylight Savings
Time
settings affect the display of
Date
and
Time
settings by
offsetting them from GMT.
Automatic Server
Restart
Configuration
Æ
General
Æ
Automatic Server Restart
page
By default, if a critical error halts the server, a message is displayed
on the control panel instructing you to press
✔
to restart.
You may enable automatic restart so that the server will restart
automatically, if possible. An alert will still be sent to notify you of
the event. Note that consecutive auto-restarts are limited; when
three occur, the server remains halted in any case.
Administrator
Username and
Password
Security
Æ
Web UI
page
On the
Web Console Password
page, set a password to secure
access to HD Server Admin (except the
Identity
and
Support
pages).
This password is not related to the optional password for the control
panel.
By default,
no
password is set, so a username and password are not
required for access. Once you set a password, the username and
password will be required for access to HD Server Admin (except
the Identity and Support pages).
The default username that accompanies the password is
“
administrator
”. You may change it.
