Performing an Initial Automatic Discovery

Related Topics

Anytime you open the Enterprise Management Window from a particular storage management station and the configuration files containing management domain data are not present or are empty, an Automatic Discovery dialog is displayed. This dialog gives you an opportunity to automatically add devices (hosts and storage subsystems) from your local sub-network to your management domain.

Note: This dialog is also displayed if the primary configuration file is corrupt and the backup configuration file is empty. It is also displayed as part of the recovery sequence when the configuration files have become corrupt and have been reset as empty files.
