If the Windows Firewall settings are restored to the default values either due
to user action or because of a system restore, you must reset the firewall port
exceptions for the cluster setup to be successful. Dell provides a batch file
that sets the required port exceptions to deploy, manage, and use the
PowerVault NX1950 cluster solution. For instructions to download and execute
the batch file, see the Dell PowerVault NX1950 Systems Deployment Guide.
NOTICE:
Ensure that you perform the procedure described in the
Dell PowerVault NX1950 Systems Deployment Guide to avoid system failure.
