Updating Element Data
System Manager lets you update data about elements directly from this screen. When you update
element data, the management server updates infrastructure details from the element and then
redraws the topology with the updated information.
Keep in mind the following:
•
Do not update element data during Discovery Data Collection/Get Details. You can determine if
the management server is getting the topology or all element details by looking at the label near
the status button.
•
Updating element data does not detect element components that have been removed, such as
ports and LUNs. For example, assume you removed several LUNs from an array. If you right-click
the storage system and select Update Element Data, the LUNs still appear in the user interface.
You must perform Discovery Data Collection/Get Details for the deleted LUNs to be removed
from the user interface. See”
Step 4 - Discovery Data Collection or Get Details
•
Update Element Data does not correctly update switch ISL and topology changes. Discovery
Data Collection/Get Details must be performed to obtain switch ISL and topology changes.
To update an element:
1.
Click Tools > Storage Essentials > System Manager in HP Systems Insight Manager.
2.
Right-click the element you want to update.
3.
Select Update Element Data from the drop-down menu.
The software begins to update its database with the updated infrastructure details from the
element.
When the process is complete, the status button returns to green.
