Newbie Help - EMC2 X1E+
Help! I've inherited an EMC2 X1E+ system that I would like to bring online with one of our development Windows 2008 R2 Hyper-V servers which has an Emulex LPe1150 card. I have a part number of 005048494 and that is it. I am familiar with the IBM TotalStorage SANs and have a few of those (DS400s) in production.
I can't seem to find any information on the EMC Power Connect website or anywhere else for that matter. If I can just find any documentation on how to factory reset the unit and go through a full, new setup that would be great.

Nope, I’m still stuck at the Powerlink “Lite” access level even though I’ve requested normal access.
Thanks,
James

No, I haven’t seen this on my dashboard at the PowerLink site. Is this a document on the PowerLink site?
Thanks,

Still no luck with being able to do anything with this device. It appears to be a Dell /EMC unit with a model number of DL300. I've connected a serial cable to the unit while booting, and see that it is an Intel based 800 mHz processor with 1 GB of PC2100 RAM for each of the controllers, but cannot find any configuration mdocumention.
Seems a shame to relagate this to the trash pile when the storage would be great for our test environment.

I finally found an obscure thread on a late night Google safari that made mention of creating a PPP connection to one of the SPs serial ports. I had been stubmling around with just a normal putty session to the serial port without luck.
Anyway, after creating a PPP connection on that serial port with a username of clarrion and a password of clarrion!, you can then open a web browsers to http://192.168.1.1/setup (for SPA) and configure the default IP address.
Whew, I am now happily working on setting up the unit with our ESXi and Hyper-V servers to migrate our VM storage over to the device.
