1.

From the Administration tab, select Managed Resources.

2.

On the Hosts tab, select the host to update, then click either Refresh Hosts, or Edit Hosts (specifying
required items before executing the processing).

3.

Execute the processing. The task is registered to Data Collection Tasks tab. If you changed settings
in the Edit Hosts dialog box, after the task has completed successfully, execute a refresh operation
using Refresh Hosts.

The host list is updated.

NOTE:

If a host name is changed, both of the host names (before and the after change) might be displayed
on the Resource tab. In this case, delete the host before making the change. When copy pairs are
managed by the host where Device Manager agent is installed, in addition to deleting the host, the
storage system also needs to be updated.

Reviewing data collection tasks

This module describes reviewing data collection tasks to verify the success or failure of managed
target operations, such as registration.

About data collection tasks

From the Administration tab, Managed Resources, tabs are provided for adding, refreshing, editing,
and removing storage systems and hosts. These operations add or change information about the
storage or host resource.

You can also add or refresh storage systems and hosts from the Resources tab, but not edit or remove
them.

From the Administration or Resources tab you get the same dialog, and are informed that you are
performing a data collection task for the resource. As they are performed, these operations are listed
under the Administration tab, Managed Resources, Data Collection Tasks tab, and can be sorted,
filtered, and deleted.
