You can access the system remotely by using the remote management device. Depending on your storage system model, the remote management device can be the SP or the RLM.
Steps
- From the administration host, log in to the remote management device by entering the following command: ssh remote_management_username@IP_for_remote_management_device
remote_management_username is the "naroot" account or a Data ONTAP local user account with the credentials of the "admin" role or a role with the login-sp capability.
The system responds by displaying the CLI prompt for the remote management device.
- Enter the following command at the CLI prompt for the remote management device: system console
- When the system displays the login prompt, enter an appropriate account name for the storage system:

storage_system_username Note: storage_system_username is an administrative user account for the storage system.

- Enter the password for the account, and then press Enter.
The storage system prompt appears.
- To exit the console and return to the SP prompt or the RLM prompt, press Ctrl-D.
