Update Element Data | The management server gathers new and changed details from |
| the element and then redraws the topology with the updated |
| information. |
| Important: |
| • Do not update element data during Get Topology or Discovery |
| Data Collection. To determine if the management server is |
| getting the topology or all element details, look at the label |
| near the Status button. |
| • The Update Element Data functionality does not detect element |
| components that have been removed, such as ports and LUNs. |
| For example, assume you removed several LUNs from an array. |
| If you |
| Element Data, the deleted LUNs still appear in the user |
| interface. You must perform Discovery Data Collection for the |
| deleted LUNs to be removed from the user interface. |
| For more information, see ”Discovery Data Collection” on |

External Tools | Provides several ways to access an element: |
| • Telnet — Allows you to access a host or a switch through the |
| telnet utility. The Telnet feature is only accessible to Web |
| browsers on Microsoft Windows operating systems. |
| • Browse — Allows you to access the main Web page for a host |
| or a switch. |
| • Set Up External Tools — Allows you to add URLs for accessing |
| the management tools for the storage system. In some |
| instances, the management tool for the storage system is |
| directly accessible from this menu (for example, HiCommand |
| for HDS storage systems and Command View for HP XP |
| storage systems). |

|
|
Add Virtual Application | Allows you to add an unsupported application so you can monitor |
| it. For example, you might want to add a virtual application so |
| you can monitor software that was created uniquely for your |
| company. |
