About the Storage Administrator Portal
The Storage Administrator Portal for VMware vCenter enables you to configure storage systems
and management servers for management by the Storage Module for vCenter. The Storage
Administrator Portal is available when either the Storage module or the Recovery Module for HP
3PAR StoreServ is installed.
For storage systems that support provisioning, use the Storage Administrator Portal to assign access
permissions to storage pools. You can use the vSphere Client to perform storage provisioning
operations such as adding a new datastore, deleting or expanding an existing datastore, creating
new VMs, or cloning existing VMs on storage pools that are set to Full Access. For more information,
see
“Provisioning storage” (page 82) .
