When to use the USB flash drive
The USB flash drive is normally used to initialize the configuration after installing a new system.
Using the USB flash drive is required in the following situations:
- When you cannot connect to a node canister in a control enclosure using the service assistant and you want to see the status of the node.
- When you do not know, or cannot use, the service IP address for the node canister in the control enclosure and must set the address.
- When you have forgotten the superuser password and must reset the password.
