Managed Appliance Status
All DSR switches that have been automatically discovered are initially listed as Unmanaged Units.
To move a DSR switch to the managed units list:
1. In a Units View window, select Unmanaged Appliances.
2. Select one or more DSR switches.
3. Click Operations, then select Move to Managed Devices. The DSR switches are now available
from Units View windows containing appliances.
If an automatically discovered DSR switch that has been set as a managed appliance is deleted, the
DSView 3 software attempts to automatically discover the DSR switch again and add it to the
Unmanaged Appliances list. The automatic discovery process continues unless the DSR switch is
turned off or has the DSView 3 server address removed.
