Configuring HP Storage Adapter for HP 3PAR StoreServ

You must configure the HP Storage arrays that need to be managed using SAP LVM in the Configuration→Infrastructure→Storage Manger section, by selecting HP 3PAR Storage Adapter. Enter the following details in the Storage Manger section:

NOTE:

•The HP 3PAR SMI-S secure port number must be 5989.

•For the adapter to export and create hosts on the array, use superuser privileges for HP 3PAR.

•Label—Each adapter imported into SAP LVM must have a label. Labels help to differentiate the adapters logically.

•URL—The URL of the installed HP Storage Provider.

◦For example, if the HP Storage Provider is installed on the same server as that of SAP LVM at port 3501, then the URL will be https://localhost:3501/.

NOTE: Enter username as admin.

•Password—The password for the installed HP Storage Provider configured during the HP Storage Provider plug-in installation.

•vCenter host—The IP address or host name of the vCenter managing the virtual infrastructure. HP Storage Adapter supports and manages the SAP instances running on the VMware Virtual machines. This requires the adapter to have access to the ESX servers where the SAP instances are running.

•vCenter user—The username to connect to the vCenter.

•vCenter password—The password to connect to the vCenter.

NOTE: If the managed SAP instances are physical servers, then it is not mandatory to provide the vCenter host user ID and password.
