• DNS settings - These are required for DHCP configuration.

• Administrative username and password - Once SCS will not accept any unauthenticated commands once the administrator username and password are set, SCS will not accept any unauthenticated commands. 

• Disk encryption settings - These settings are related to “Encryption at Rest” and should be ideally skipped unless specified by DataCore Support. 

Finalize configuration settings

1. Run scsctl diagnostics config scan_missing
