Discovering EMC Solutions Enabler 5.1
EMC Solutions Enabler restricts access to itself through the nethost file. If present, the nethost file is
located in the same directory as the netcnfg file. If you are using a nethost file, edit it to allow the
management server to discover the Solutions Enabler and the Symmetrix storage systems that it
manages.
IMPORTANT: Use a nethost file unless you are running a version of the Solutions Enabler earlier
than the 5.1 version. You must have the license installed for the Solutions Enabler. The nethost file
provides access to the Solutions Enabler API.
Sometimes you can access an EMC Symmetrix storage system through several Solutions Enabler
servers. In this case if you do not have access to a particular Solutions Enabler, you may still be able
to access the Symmetrix storage system through another Solutions Enabler.
If you do not have a nethost file, you may need to create one. For example, assume you are running
Solutions Enabler on a Solaris server, you would create a nethost file as described in the following
steps. Refer to the documentation for Solutions Enabler for other operating systems.
1. Create a file called “nethost” in the /opt/emc/API/symapi/config directory.
2. Add the following lines to the nethost file:
[management server name] SYSTEM
[management server IP] SYSTEM
where
• [management server name] is the DNS name of the management server
