•Connected Switches - To sort storage systems by connected switches, click the Connected Switches column heading.
An arrow appears next to the column heading that sorts the storage systems. For example, if the storage systems are being sorted by name, an arrow appears next to the Storage Systems column heading. If the arrow next to the column heading is pointing up, the storage systems are sorted in ascending numerical and alphabetical order. If the arrow is pointing down, the storage systems are sorted in descending numerical and alphabetical order. Click the column heading to change the direction of the arrow.
7.To remove storage systems from the group, click the button with the less than sign (<).
8.Click OK.
The management server no longer displays the grouped elements in the topology individually. A storage system icon with the group name on the bottom represents the group. The group cannot be monitored or managed.
Ungrouping Discovered Storage Systems
If one of the storage systems in a group is going to change, you might want to ungroup Discovered hosts. An example of such a change would be when a storage system will be taken off line.
Keep in mind the following:
•A user's role must include an access level of Element Control or Full Control for storage systems. See the topic, ”Editing Roles” on page 149 for more information about the access level of a role.
•Do not ungroup elements during Get Topology or Discovery Data Collection. You can determine if the management server is getting the topology or all element details by looking at label near the status button.
To ungroup multiple elements:
1.Access System Manager, as described in ”Accessing System Manager” on page 251.
2.
3.When you are asked if you want to ungroup the elements, click OK. The elements are ungrouped.
