Installing Cisco DCNM-SAN Server

</h1>
<a name="wp275952"> </a><p class="pBody">
When you install DCNM-SAN, the basic version of the Cisco DCNM-SAN Server (unlicensed) is 
installed with it. After you click the DCNM-SAN icon, a dialog box opens and you can enter the IP 
address of a computer running the Cisco DCNM-SAN Server component. If you do not see the Cisco 
DCNM-SAN Server IP address text box, click <b class="cBold">Options</b> to expand the list of configuration options. If the 
server component is running on your local machine, leave<b class="cBold"> localhost</b> in that field. If you try to run 
DCNM-SAN without specifying a valid server, you are prompted to start the Cisco DCNM-SAN Server 
locally.

</p>
<a name="wp257695"> </a><p class="pBody">
On a Windows PC, you install the Cisco DCNM-SAN Server as a service. This service can then be 
administered using Services in the Administrative Tools. The default setting for the Cisco DCNM-SAN 
Server service is that the server is automatically started when the Windows PC is rebooted. You can 
change this behavior by modifying the properties in Services.

</p>
<a name="wp267625"> </a><p class="pBody">
For switches running Cisco MDS 9000 FabricWare, you must install DCNM-SAN from the CD-ROM 
included with your switch, or you can download DCNM-SAN from Cisco.com.

</p>
<a name="wp267626"> </a><p class="pBodyAutonumNoRule">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> You can have only one instance of Cisco DCNM-SAN Server running on a computer. If you have a 
DCNM-SAN Standalone version on your computer, you may need to uninstall it before you install Cisco 
DCNM-SAN Server.

</p>
<a name="wp267627"> </a><p class="pBody">
To download the software from Cisco.com, go to the following website:

</p>
<a name="wp275996"> </a><p class="pBody">
<a href="http://cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/mds-fm" target="_window">http://cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/mds-fm
</a>
</p>
<a name="wp275997"> </a><p class="pBodyAutonumNoRule">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> If you are upgrading from an earlier version to 5.0(1a) or later, that is configured with HTTPS to use 
your own self-provisioned or a third-party issued SSL certificate, make sure that you set the keystore 
password and then restart the DCNM-SAN Server. To set the keystore password, run 
<span style="font-weight: bold">$INSTALLDIR/dcm/fm/bin encrypter.bat ssl</span>.

<br />
host    all         all           0.0.0.0/0             md5<br />

After adding, save the configuration file, restart the PostgreSQL database before you install the 
second server node.
