Insert Disk Drives

•The OneBlox Web Console is viewed through a web browser and used to configure the

Static IP address, DNS, NTP Server, bond mode, and other configuration details to meet

your network infrastructure requirements.

•While on the same network as the OneBlox, you may view the Web Console by opening

a web browser and entering the OneBlox IP Address http://<OneBloxIPaddress> or by

the host name from a Mac http://<OneBlox4xxxx.local>

•When logging into the Web Console and changing the network settings, the default user

name is ‘admin’ and default password is ‘config’. You will be prompted to change the

password when logging in.

•NOTE: If OneBlox is deployed on a network with no DHCP server, please connect a

monitor to the display port and keyboard to view the OneBlox and IPMI IP addresses.

Refer to the user guide located at https://exablox.io/useinfo for additional information.

•When the startup process is complete, the Web Console will display, “OneBlox is ready

to use”.

•The OneBlox cluster may be accessed by using the cluster name displayed on the web

console. If desired, the cluster name may be changed in OneSystem.

•When you’re ready to manage your OneBlox, please create an account at:

https://onesystem.exablox.com. If a Private OneSystem deployment is selected,

please refer to the Private OneSystem deployment guide for details at

https://exablox.io/useinfo

•For useful and tutorial information visit www.exablox.com/how-to-videos. Release

notes and user guide documentation can be found after logging into OneSystem and

selecting ‘help and info’ in the upper right portion of the web browser next to the

OneSystem user’s email address.

•If you have any questions or problems, visit support.exablox.com or contact us at

[email protected].

Ready to Use

2Rack, Connect the Power and Network Cables

•To view the quick start guide online visit https://exablox.io/4312-QSG.

•Remove the drive carriers and the drive filler with a screwdriver. Insert a disk drive

with the circuit board facing down and SATA/SAS connections facing the open end of

the carrier. The additional necessary screws are in the Exablox accessory box.

•Ensure all drive carriers are inserted completely into OneBlox for proper airflow. If

less than 12 drives are initially installed, additional drives may be added at any time.

The disk drives do not need to have identical capacities.

•To rack mount OneBlox, follow the directions provided with the rack rail hardware in

the original OneBlox packaging. Connect both power cords to the OneBlox and into

standard 120/220 VAC grounded outlet. Take note of the OneBlox host name

(OneBlox4xxxx) located on the rear for use in step 4 and later.

•For 1GbE networks, connect 10GbE and 1GbE Ethernet cables to the rear of the

OneBlox. For 10GbE networks, connect only 10GbE BASE-T or 10GbE SFP+ ports.

NOTE: By default, all ports are bonded using `Active/Backup’ and present a single IP

address. Advanced network configuration is an option, including LACP and port

groups. Refer to the user guide for more details https://exablox.io/useinfo.

•Please ensure OneBlox has internet access to OneSystem. If configuring static IP

addresses see step 3.

•NOTE: The IPMI port located on the left and may be used for lights out remote

management. You may access it by browsing to http://<IPMIIPAddress>
