Specify one or more Storage Management Instances

StorMan needs a Management Instance that delivers informations about a certain storage system and provides management functions. This Management Instance is e.g. a SMI-S provider for ETERNUS DX/AF systems.

For this purpose execute the command:

storcfg provider -add -ip ip [-provideruser myUser -providerpwd myPassword] -storagemodel myStorageModel

to specify the IP address and the access information (user/password) for the management instance.

The discovery of the storage systems managed by this instance is starting automatically.

At least one management instance must be defined in StorMan configuration for each managed storage system. Management via remote connected storage systems is not supported.
