Requirements

Document Version 1.4

1. Requirements This installation requires the following:

• One head unit:

o Security Analytics SA-S500-20-FA Forensic Appliance

o Security Analytics SA-S500-40-FA Forensic Appliance

• One or more storage modules:

o Symantec J5300 40T Direct Attached Storage (SA-J5300-DAS-40T)

o Dell® PowerVault® MD1400 Attached Storage (SA-SM-48T-G6)

• Workstation with Ethernet port and terminal-emulation software

Adding storage modules to an existing system is a destructive process, because all of the capture and indexing drive arrays must be reconfigured. Do not begin to add new storage to an existing system until after you have backed up all capture, indexing, and system data. (Consult the Reference section of the Help Files for instructions on backing up system data using dsmigratedata, scm migrator, or solera-backup.sh.)

1.1. Terminology The following usage appears in this document:

• Head Unit—An SA-S500-[20|40]-FA that has one or more connected storage modules

• Server—An SA-S500-[20|40]-FA, either a head unit or a standalone unit

• Storage Module—A J5300 Direct Attached Storage or MD1400 Attached Storage module

• Array—A logical set of virtual disk groups; Security Analytics requires three arrays: system, indexing, and capture.

Dell PowerVault MD1400 Attached Storage

The rightmost two SAS ports (3, 4) on each I/O controller are used only in a two-node failover or dual-homed configuration, which Symantec does not support for Security Analytics.

Document Version 1.4

2. Cable the Storage Modules Cable all of the units together as shown.

You must connect the storage modules to the head unit BEFORE continuing to the next step.

2.1. Cable Orientation When inserting the SAS-3 cables into the SA-S500 and J5300 plugs, the release tab on the connectors should be on the bottom, as shown.

For the MD1400, the release tab should be on the top.

A properly inserted cable will "click" into place.

2.2. One RAID-Controller Setups Use this cabling schema for the SA-S500-20-FA, or if you will be connecting one or two storage modules to the SA-S500-40-FA.

Document Version 1.4

If you are connecting only one storage module to an SA-S500-40-FA, DO NOT connect the module to both RAID controllers.

Document Version 1.4

2.4. Initial Configuration Power on the storage modules first, then power on the head unit. Have you already configured an IP address for eth0 (SYS MGMT 0:0)?

Yes—Have you licensed the head unit?

Yes—Go to Step 2.7: View the Default File-System Allocation.

No—Go to Step 2.6: Configure Initial Settings.

No—Continue the procedure.

2.5. Establish a Connection to the Head Unit

On a newly purchased SA-S500-[20|40]-FA, the management interface (eth0, SYS MGMT 0:0) is set to 192.168.20.20. Do one of the following:

• Using an Ethernet cable, connect the SYS MGMT 0:0 port to a management workstation. The management workstation should have an IP address in the 192.168.20.0/24 network. Launch a web browser, navigate to 192.168.20.20, and go to Step 2.6.1.

• Using a null-modem serial cable, connect the serial port to a serial terminal or to a workstation with terminal-emulation software. Configure the serial connection as follows:

• Baud rate: 9600 bps • Parity: none • Flow control: none

• Data bits: 8 • Stop bits: 1

Follow Steps 2.5.1 through 2.5.3 to assign a temporary IP address.

2.5.1. Log in to the CLI via SSH using the following credentials: admin | Solera

Page 12: SA-S500 Configuration Guide - Broadcom Inc.

Cable the Storage Modules

© 2019 Symantec Corp. 12 of 25 Updated 4 Jun 2019 SA-S500 Configuration Guide

Document Version 1.4

2.5.2. Use ifconfig to temporarily assign an IP address to the management interface (eth0) that is accessible by your management workstation. This IP address will be valid until the appliance reboots:

sudo ifconfig eth0 <ip_address> netmask <subnet_mask>;sudo route add default gw <default_gateway_ip>

2.5.3. Launch a web browser and navigate to the IP address for eth0. Continue to the next section.

2.6. Configure Initial Settings 2.6.1. At the Login page, enter the default username and password, both of which are case-

sensitive: admin | Solera

2.6.2. Consult the Initial Settings page of the Help Files for instructions on initial appliance configuration, password setting, and licensing.

• The Help Files are available on support.symantec.com/en_US/Documentation.html. Enter Security Analytics for Product Name and then select Administration Guide for Document Type.

Setting the root and admin passwords on the Initial Settings page is required. When you click Save, the default passwords for those accounts are destroyed.

Symantec Support does not have a master password for root or admin access, and there is no backup mechanism for your new passwords.

Follow best key-maintenance practices by manually recording your passwords and by keeping a copy in a secure location that is separate from the appliance.

2.6.3. When the head unit reboots after licensing, continue the procedure.

2.7. View the Default File-System Allocation 2.7.1. Access the console by one of these two methods:

• Using an Ethernet cable, connect the SYS MGMT 0:0 port (eth0) to a management workstation with an IP address in the same network as eth0. Establish an SSH session.

• Using a null-modem serial cable, connect the serial port to a serial terminal or to a workstation with terminal-emulation software.

2.7.2. On the console, log in as root. Display the current file-system allocation.

[root@hostname ~]# df -h

2.7.3. Notice the size of /pfs (capture). It should be ~9TB for the -20-FA and ~25TB for the -40-FA.

2.8. Verify System Health 2.8.1. View the RAID controllers, current volumes, and disk health.

2.8.2. The first part of the output shows that the internal RAID controller (a0) controls the disks in the head unit (12 for the -20-FA and 24 for the -40-FA) and that three volumes (0, 1, 2) are configured by default. This example shows the default configuration for a -20-FA.

2.8.3. For each external RAID controller (a1, a2), you should see 12 physical drives per storage module.

2.8.4. For ALL physical disks, is the status Online, Spun Up or Unconfigured (good), Spun Up?

Yes—Continue the procedure.

No—STOP.

You cannot "work around" damaged disks: Security Analytics requires that the number of disks be identical across all disk groups (virtual drives).

• Repair or replace the damaged disks.

• When all disks are in good condition, you can continue the procedure.

Run the carve-s500 Script

© 2019 Symantec Corp. 15 of 25 Updated 4 Jun 2019 SA-S500 Configuration Guide

Document Version 1.4

3. Run the carve-s500 Script Follow these steps to run the carve-s500 script, which detects all attached devices and creates the system, indexing, and capture drives.

3.1.1. Optional—Consult Appendix B: carve-s500 Help on page 25 to see the options for the command.

3.1.2. Delete the existing non-system disk volumes, and then reboot.

[root@hostname ~]# carve-s500 --delete-all [-v] [root@hostname ~]# reboot

3.1.3. Run carve-s500. Verbose mode is recommended.

[root@hostname ~]# carve-s500 -v

When successful, the script automatically reboots the head unit.

3.1.4. After the head unit has finished rebooting, display the new file-system allocation:

[root@hostname ~]# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda4 4.9G 2.9G 1.8G 62% / devtmpfs 64G 0 64G 0% /dev tmpfs 64G 11M 64G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 64G 18M 64G 1% /run tmpfs 64G 0 64G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/sda2 1.5G 64M 1.4G 5% /boot /dev/sda7 3.6T 197M 3.4T 1% /home /dev/sda3 68G 2.2G 62G 4% /var /dev/sda5 4.9G 138M 4.5G 3% /ds /dev/sda6 2.0G 506M 1.4G 28% /gui /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x600605b00b69eaf021395ca1515749ef-part1 81T 81T 0 100% /pfs /dev/sdb1 15T 20M 14T 1% /var/lib/solera/meta gaugefs 81T 81T 0 100% /etc/solera/flows tmpfs 13G 0 13G 0% /run/user/0 tmpfs 13G 0 13G 0% /run/user/48

3.1.5. The entry for /pfs should display the total amount of space across all capture drives. This example shows two storage modules with 40TB each for a total of ~80TB.

RAID Array Configurations

Document Version 1.4

Appendix A: RAID Array Configurations These tables display the default disk allocations that are created by the carve-s500 script.

Adding storage modules is a destructive process, because all of the capture and indexing drive arrays must be reconfigured. Do not begin to add new storage to an existing system until after you have backed up all capture, indexing, and system data. (Consult the Reference section of the Help Files for instructions on backing up system data using dsmigratedata, scm migrator, or solera-backup.sh.)
