Working with the Host Manager

Storage servers automatically detect new physically connected host paths and display their
World-Wide Name (WWN) (for Fibre Channel ports) or iSCSI Name (for iSCSI ports) in the

InForm Management Console. However, you can also use the InForm Management Console
to add new WWNs or iSCSI names for unestablished host paths and assign them to a host

before they are physically connected. This allows a "plug-and-play" functionality that avoids
the need for manual reconfiguration after establishing new host paths.
The Host Manager allows you to perform the following:

View Host Information

Create, Edit, and Remove Hosts

Create, Edit, and Remove Host Sets

Note: If you are a domain user, only information within the domain(s) you
have access to, will be visible.


If you are a domain user, you can perform any host task via the Domains node in the
management tree. The information and procedures when working in the Domains node are

identical to those under the InServs node, except information is filtered by domain.
