and Management Servers list.
Adding HP P6000 EVAs
To view information about a P6000 EVA, use the Storage Administrator Portal to add the array
and associate it with a P6000 Command View management server. During the initial Storage
Module for vCenter configuration, add the P6000 EVAs and P6000 Command View management
servers in a single step as described in
“Adding HP P6000 Command View management servers”
. After the initial configuration, you can add and remove P6000 EVA and management
server associations by modifying the configuration for either the P6000 Command View management
server or the P6000 EVA.
NOTE:
With the release of the P6300 and P6500 EVA, the EVA family name has been rebranded
to HP P6000 EVA. The names for all earlier EVA models did not change. For the supported P6000
EVA models, see the HP SPOCK website:
