This process can be carried out using either Web Console or stgxfwcmsetdev (Device information collection/reflection command).
Note
As part of replication management, device information on a Managed Server must first be stored in the repository.
There may not be sufficient area available for updating the repository if information is to be obtained for devices under two or more Managed Servers. Check if the area required when updating the repository is available before obtaining the device information. If there is insufficient area, allocate the required area, then obtain the device information.
Refer to step 2 of "7.2.3 Troubleshooting: Failure in accessing a repository database" for details on checking the required area.
The time taken to add new devices is in proportion to the total number of devices defined in the selected Managed Server. For this reason, if a large number of devices have been defined, execute the process only when the CPU load on the system is low. As a guide, each operation takes about 0.5 seconds per device (ie, partition) with no load.
