The SVP IP address that you specify is registered with the management station.
HP XP7 Performance Advisor automatically uses the SVP IP address every time you initiate an

To register an P9500/XP7 disk array SVP IP address with the management station:
1.
In the Register SVP IP/Save RWC Credentials section, select an P9500/XP7 disk array from
the Array list. All the P9500/XP7 disk arrays monitored by HP XP7 Performance Advisor are
displayed in the Array list.

Enter the disk array IP address in Array IP Address.
3.
Enter the RWC credentials (RWC user name and password).
4.
Click Save Credentials.
The SVP IP address, user name, and password are saved in HP XP7 Performance Advisor
database. HP XP7 Performance Advisor also uses these credentials to validate the connection
with the P9500/XP7 disk array.
NOTE:
On a few occasions, the SVP IP address, user name, and password are not saved.
It might be because the SVP is offline. Wait for a few minutes and try again.

Click Register.
The SVP IP address that was saved is also registered with the management station.
The Register button is disabled if you do not click Save Credentials first.

array.
