Update Element Data

The management server gathers new and changed details from

the element and then redraws the topology with the updated

information.
Important

:

Do not update element data during Get Topology or Discovery

Data Collection/Get Details. You can determine if the

management server is getting the topology or all element

details by looking at the label near the status button.

The Update Element Data functionality does not detect element

components that have been removed, such as ports and LUNs.

For example, assume you removed several LUNs from an array.

If you right-click the storage system and select Update
Element Data

, the LUNs still appear in the user interface. You

must perform Discovery Data Collection/Get Details for the

deleted LUNs to be removed from the user interface. See ”

Step

4 - Discovery Data Collection or Get Details

” on page 80.

Telnet

- Lets you access a host or a switch through the telnet

utility. The Telnet feature is only accessible to Web browsers on

Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Browse

switch.

Set Up External Tools

management tools for the storage system. In some instances,

the management tool for the storage system is accessible from
