domain_name
is the domain name of the machine

user_name
is the name of your network account

typed into this field is displayed under the Comment column in the Addresses to Discover list

(Only applies to Discovery from HP SE)Step 3 - Make Sure There Are No
Port Conflicts for Receiving SNMP Traps
IMPORTANT: This step does not apply to discovery from HP SIM.
When the management server is configured to contact the proxy by SNMP, the management server
receives events from the proxy in the form of SNMP traps. By default, the management server uses
port 162 to receive SNMP traps. If another software package is using that port, the management
server is unable to receive the traps. To change the port the management server uses:
1. Select Tools > Storage Essentials > Home > Configuration > Product Health. Then, click
Advanced
in the Disk Space tree.
2. Click Show Default Properties at the bottom of the page.
3. Copy the following command:
