The configuration definition file is in a format that is supported by Device Manager
agent, and the P9000 RAID Manager instance must have started normally.
Pair Management server
The serial numbers of the storage systems managed by the Device Manager server
must be unique.
Storage system
P9000 RAID Manager 01-25-xx/xx or later must be installed (Device Manager
agent is not necessary), and the relay (P9000 RAID Manager) instance must have
been started. In addition:
•
The user account for executing the Device Manager agent service (or Applica-

RAID Manager instances on the pair management servers are determined
by adding 34000 +
instance-number
+ 1.The port number used by
the SVPs is 31001.
Communication between the
P9000 RAID Manager instances
and the SVPs
The P9000 RAID Manager instances on the pair management servers
can communicate with the relay (P9000 RAID Manager) instance installed
on the virtual command device server using UDP. The ports used by the
P9000 RAID Manager instances on the pair management servers is the
value determined by adding 34000 +
instance-number
+ 1. The port
used by the (P9000 RAID Manager) relay instance on the virtual command
device server is specified in a configuration definition file.
