Some Swarm configuration settings are site-specific and related to:

• DNS Settings - These are required for DHCP configuration.

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

Finalize Configuration Settings

1. Run the below command: scsctl diagnostics config scan_missing

   ======================================================================================================  Component: network_boot  ----------------------------------------------  Name: network.dnsServers  Type: array[str]  Description: Required. DNS servers to be used.  ----------------------------------------------  Component Group: network_boot/192.168.9.0x24.network_boot.scs-lab1.datacore.internal [DEFAULT GROUP]  Instances cannot currently inherit these from the group (since they have not been defined at the group level), so these settings must instead be defined for each instance!  If any new instances are added, please define these settings, or define them at the group level to apply to all instances. Best practice is to define them at the group level if possible. 

2. Click Enter to apply the settings when prompted for the DNS servers.

   ----------------------------------------------  Name: network.dnsServers  Type: array[str]  Description: Required. DNS servers to be used.  ----------------------------------------------  Missing setting: network_boot/network.dnsServers  Where would you like to update this setting? > As a default at group level    For each instance in the group    Skip this setting for now 

3. Provide the DNS servers.

   ----------------------------------------------  Name: network.dnsServers  Type: array[str]  Description: Required. DNS servers to be used.  ----------------------------------------------  Missing setting: network_boot/network.dnsServers  network.dnsServers [type: array[str]] (Required. DNS servers to be used.): 172.16.33.4,172.16.33.5 ======================================================================================================  Component: platform  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Name: admin.password  Type: str  Description: Administrative user password  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Name: admin.userName  Type: str  Description: Administrative user name  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Name: logging.syslogHost  Type: str  Description: If defined, then the host that component instances should use for syslog logging.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Name: network.dnsDomain  Type: str  Description: Required. The DNS domain name that will be used.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Name: network.ntpServers  Type: array[str]  Description: Required. The IP address(es) of one or more NTP servers. If the nodes cannot access public NTP servers, they will time out waiting for a connection and automatically restart. Only use trusted NTP servers, whether they are dedicated hardware solutions in your internal network or external, public servers that the nodes can access over the network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Component Group: platform/global.platform.scs-lab1.datacore.internal [DEFAULT GROUP]  Instances cannot currently inherit these from the group (since they have not been defined at the group level), so these settings must instead be defined for each instance! If any new instances are added, please define these settings, or define them at the group level to apply to all instances.  Best practice is to define them at the group level if possible. -------------------------------------------------------------  Name: network.dnsDomain  Type: str  Description: Required. The DNS domain name that will be used.  ------------------------------------------------------------- 

4. Click Enter to apply at the group level when prompted for the DNS domain.

5. Set the DNS domain.

    

6. Reboot the swarm-platform for encryption changes to take effect.

7. Validate the encryption using grep command:

    

   The correct output of the format looks like this:

Notes on Administrative User Name

If SCS is being installed with an existing Swarm storage cluster, then care must be taken to ensure that the SCS administrative user name matches the administrative user name within the storage cluster. This must occur before booting any nodes with SCS. To update the administrative user name at this point:
