Install 3Ware (AMCC) 3DM2 Tools on Debian 4.0
This guide will explain to you how to install the 3Ware 3DM2 tools on a Debian 4.0 system.
The purpose of this software is to manage the RAID Controller from a browser window from any PC in you network.
We will be using the website from Jonas (DE) on the following location: http://jonas.genannt.name/
He built a Debian package (.deb) to ease up the install. Thanks Jonas!
Download the package
- Make a temporary folder (I normally use /install)
mkdir /install
cd /install - Download the debian package with the latest version (during the writing of this guide, the version was 9.5.1.1)
wget http://jonas.genannt.name/3ware-3dm2-binary_9.5.1.1-1duo1_i386.deb - Install the package
dpkg -i 3ware-3dm2*.deb - Install the missing packages through the APT system
apt-get -f install
Modify the config file
- Move to the directory of 3DM2
cd /etc/3dm2 - Edit the config file
nano -w 3dm2.conf - Locate "RemoteAccess" and change the "0" to "1"
Restart the 3DM2 Deamon
- Restart the deamon
/etc/init.d/3dm2 restart
OK, you're done now! You can now connect to your server with any webbrowser, go to: https://:888
for example: https://192.168.1.10:888 and login with Administrator (dropdown menu) and password "3ware"
Please change the password now!
