By registering VM management software or storage management software with Resource Orchestrator, created resources will be automatically detected. For details on VM management software, refer to "4.2.2 VM Management Software". For details on storage management software, refer to "4.2.3 Storage Management Software". For details on how to detect storage resources, refer to "4.2.4 Storage Resources".
To register a network resource, specify a network pool when creating the network resource. For details, refer to "4.3.4 Network Resources".
