The SVP IP address that you specify is registered with the management station.
HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor automatically uses the SVP IP address every time you initiate
an outband configuration data collection for the selected XP disk array.
To register a P9000 disk array SVP IP address with the management station:
1.
In the Register SVP IP/Save RWC Credentials section, select a P9000 disk array from the Array
list. All the P9000 disk arrays monitored by HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor are displayed
in the Array list.
2.
Enter the disk array IP address in Array IP Address.
3.
Enter the RWC credentials (RWC user name and password).
4.
Click Save Credentials.
The SVP IP address, user name, and password are saved in HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor
database. HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor also uses these credentials to validate the
connection with the P9000 disk array.
NOTE:
On a few occasions, the SVP IP address, user name, and password are not saved.
It might be because the SVP is offline. Wait for a few minutes and try again.
5.
Click Register.
The SVP IP address that was saved is also registered with the management station.
The Register button is disabled if you do not click Save Credentials first.
The SVP IP address and RWC user name and password are used whenever you enable
authentication to initiate configuration and performance data collection for the selected P9000
disk array. For more information on data collection, see
“Collecting configuration data” (page 52)
and
Click Reset if you want to clear the current entries in the fields and re-enter new data.
