3. A host registered by using vMA can be set to be managed by Host Data Collector, but if it is managed
by Host Data Collector, it cannot be set to be managed by vMA. If a host has been set to be managed
by Host Data Collector, see the description of how to update registered host information by using Host
Data Collector.
4. To update WWN nicknames that have been specified by using storage system management tools such
as Remote Web Console, refresh the storage system information. When several WWN nicknames are
assigned to a single HBA, only one of the nicknames is displayed for that HBA.
To edit and refresh hosts using vMA:
1. From the Administration tab, select Managed Resources.
2. On the Hosts tab, select the host to update, then click either Refresh Hosts or Edit Hosts depending
on the items that you want to update.
3. Execute the processing. The task is registered to Data Collection Tasks tab. If you changed settings
in the Edit Hosts dialog box, after the task has completed successfully, execute a refresh operation
using Refresh Hosts.
The host list is updated.
