Jyothi,

I have read this document a couple of times.  In the installation requirements (page 6), the document says DNS is recommended.  However, in the Automatically Assigning a Dynamic VNXe Management Port IP Address (page 22), the document says DNS is required.  The Manually Assigning a Static VNXe Management Port IP Address (page 23) doesn't say anything about DNS but that portion is using the Connection Utility just like Automatically Assigning portion so I would think that DNS is required here as well?  I can't use a thumb drive since this equipment is for the government. 

Any other thoughts about how to achieve configuring the device?

Okay here is a update on my situation.  I am still not able to use the Auto Discover method.  I tried using the manual method yet it will not configure itself.  I did use a hard drive to try to configure it.  I created a 32GB FAT32 partition and created the two files on that.  The fault lights are still blinking blue and orange after 30 minutes and I can't ping or connect to the IP I set.  The switch in between is pretty vanilla.  I have 2 servers and the VNXe on the same subnet.  I can ping between the 2 servers so I know it is working.  Can I not use the hard drive and have to use a flash drive?  Is there something I am missing in all of this? 

I would suggest to open a service request
