Discovering 3PAR Storage Systems

To discover a 3PAR storage system, the SMI-S server for the 3PAR storage system must be running. By default, the 3PAR SMI-S server is not started on the array. To start the SMI-S server, start the InForm CLI and run the following command:

startcim

This command starts the SMI-S server within a minute or so.

NOTE: You do not need to provide the interop namespace because the management server includes the interop namespace for 3PAR storage systems in its default list.

To discover 3PAR storage systems, enter the following information in HP SIM

•The IP address or system name for the storage system.

•User name of the storage system.
