Notes:
1.
When copy pairs are managed by a host where Device Manager agent is installed, you need to restart
the Device Manager agent service after changing the host name. After the Device Manager agent service
is restarted, the new host name is applied by updating the storage system.
2.
WWNs and their port types that have been added can be affected by the Refresh Hosts button, but deleted
WWNs and their port types cannot be affected. To delete such WWNs, the Edit Hosts button needs to
be used.
3.
If you want to allocate volumes to a FCoE port, you need to manually add a WWN.
4.
To update WWN nicknames that have been specified by using storage system management tools such
as Remote Web Console, refresh the storage system information. When several WWN nicknames are
assigned to a single HBA, only one of the nicknames is displayed for that HBA.
To edit and refresh hosts using Device Manager agent:
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 depending
on the items that you want to update.
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 after the 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.

When hosts no longer need to be managed, for example due to a reorganization, you can remove
the registered hosts and exclude them from Command View AE Suite management. Related storage
resources, such as volumes allocated to the target host and path setting information, can also be
removed. Only storage resources allocated to the removed host can be released.
