Performing a Test File System Viewer Scan
If you have changed your network configuration and you are not sure the management server can still scan the server running File System Viewer, you can perform a test File System Viewer scan. During this scan, the management server verifies that it can access the server and perform a high level File System Viewer scan.
IMPORTANT: This feature only works with CIM Extensions builds 4.0 and later.
To perform a test File System Viewer scan:
1.Click Reports > Storage Essentials > Data Collection > File SRM Data in HP Systems Insight Manager.
2.Click the Test button in the Test Scan column for the corresponding file server.
After you click the Test button, the management server attempts to access the server and perform a test File System Viewer scan.
