Discovering Xiotech Storage Systems
IMPORTANT: You must have Xiotech's Intelligent Control (ICON) software installed. If you do not
have the software, contact your Xiotech representative.
Discovery from HP SIM
To discover a Xiotech storage system, provide the following information in HP Systems Insight
Manager:
• IP address or system name for the storage system. Its namespace (
/root/cimv2)
is one of the
default namespaces in the wbemportlist.xml file on the server running HP SIM, so you do not
need to add its namespace.
• Although Xiotech storage systems do not require you to enter a user name and password to
discover it, HP SIM does not allow you to leave the user name and password fields blank.
Refer to the HP SIM documentation for more information.
Discovery from HP SE
To discover an Xiotech storage system:
1. Click Tools > Storage Essentials > Home on the HP SIM home page menu. The HP SE home
page opens in a separate web browser window. Click Discovery > Setup in the upper-right
pane of the HP SE window.
2. Select Step 1 at the top of the page.
3. Click the IP Addresses tab.
4. Click the Add Address button.
5. In the IP Address/DNS Name field, enter the IP address or DNS name for the storage system
and its namespace. For example:
<IP address/DNS name>/root/cimv2
where
• <IP address/DNS name> is the IP address or DNS name of the storage system.
• /root/cimv2 is its namespace.
6. You can leave the user name and password for the Xiotech storage system blank.
7. In the Comment field (optional), type a comment for additional information. The information
typed into this field is displayed under the Comment column in the Addresses to Discover list
(Tools > Storage Essentials > Home > Discovery > Setup).
8. Do not select the Do Not Authenticate option.
9. Click OK.
10. To start discovering elements on the network, click the Start Discovery button on the IP
Addresses tab.
