Double – check the cabling

Make sure you install and power on according to the hardware installation guide

Thank you very much for answer me, I already check the cabling following the Installation Guide P/N 300-012-923 Rev05

The two interfaces that it is complaining eth0 and eth2 are the ones that connect the control station to the data movers.

Either your cabling is wrong, the DME isn’t powered on – my best guess

Make sure you only connect eth3 to the outside network – all others should be internal

Also verify that 128.221.x.x isn’t used in the customer network

If that doesn’t work I suggest to call the EMC support phone or use the customer service live chat

Hi Rainer

I just avoid the power connection picture, all is corrected I dont know if you have another  advise, which eth3 did you refer?

There are 4 physical Ethernet ports on the control station – eth0,1,2,3
