Explanation

Option D is correct because the VSP F700's "New Installation" procedure requires a Maintenance PC (MPC) physically connected to the system's dedicated maintenance LAN port - this direct local connection is necessary when the storage system is not yet network-configured or reachable through normal management channels. The raidcom CLI (A) is a powerful command-line tool for ongoing storage management, but it requires an already-operational system accessible via a configured network - it cannot bootstrap a new installation. Hitachi Ops Center Administrator (B) is a higher-level management platform for day-to-day operations and monitoring of already-running systems, not for initial hardware bring-up. The SVP Web console (C) is a valid maintenance tool used post-installation for configuration tasks, but it is accessed through the SVP's own web interface rather than being the designated tool for the formal New Installation procedure.

Memory tip: Think "new = direct." A brand-new system has no network identity yet, so you must physically plug in (MPC to maintenance LAN port) - just like setting up a new router requires a direct cable connection before any wireless management works.
