Discovering HP XP Arrays by Using Command View XP and SMI-S

Before you can discover XP arrays, you must download and install the XP SMI-S Provider software.

For instructions, see the HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array and Command View XP document for your

version of Command View XP. You can access this document at:

http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim/providers

. Check this web site periodically to verify that you are

running a current version of the SMI-S provider. See the support matrix for your edition for details.
