You should install the Navisphere Host Agent software to ensure the HBA connections are all registered correctly. For instructions on how to perform this operation refer to the EMC ControlCenter Navisphere Host Agent software documentation for your array type.
After the host agent has started and registered the new HBA paths, you should refresh the host connections in the storage group to ensure all available paths are assigned. To do this, you have two options, depending on whether you want to disrupt the connectivity of the host:
