Assistance with Initial Configuration of VNXe3150 and VNXe3200

Hello,

I'm a hobbyist who recently acquired a Dell EMC VNXe3150 and VNXe3200. I've been attempting to integrate them into my network and utilize them as intended, but have encountered several challenges.

Steps I've taken so far:

• Attempted to detect the devices via DHCP; no success.

• Tried configuring them using a USB drive with a configuration file; no success.

• Experimented with both the network ports and the service ports (wrench icon); no success.(reddit.com)

I've read about the "VNXe Connection Utility" that should assist with the initial setup, but I've been unable to locate a download link for it. The official Dell support site requires an enterprise account associated with the system to access the utility, which I do not have. (reddit.com)

Additionally, the manuals I've found do not provide information on performing a factory reset from an external source or configuring the communication interfaces.

I've ordered a serial cable, but it won't arrive for at least a week. In the meantime, I'm seeking alternative methods to configure the devices. I've come across mentions of using the IPMI tool or the svc_initial_config command, but I'm unsure how to proceed without the necessary software or documentation. (dell.com)

Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
