SAN Discoveries
The Storage Management Appliance is also connected to the SAN fabric via a
fabric switch. Some devices within the SAN fabric have no SNMP agent or LAN
connection. The Storage Management Appliance uses a SAN discovery to
identify storage elements connected to the local SAN. A SAN discovery identifies
HSG and HSV controllers (or controller pairs) that are connected to the local
Storage Management Appliance.
This special discovery is preset on the Storage Management Appliance and runs
by default during the update. It is called the Local SAN Discovery and is listed on
the Discovery page (
Figure 31 ). This discovery is set to run on demand and must
be run whenever you add controllers to your SAN or change the Storage
Management Appliance name.
Table 3 shows the settings for the Local SAN
Discovery should you need to reset it.
If you use Command View EVA to manage HSV storage elements in your
network, you must use the Remote Access feature to create a user name and
password before the element manager can be identified by a SAN discovery. See
“
Remote Access ” on page 36 for more information about creating such a user
name and password.
