The [Register Resources] dialog is displayed.
When a resource to register is a disk resource, click <Search> in the search condition area. The resources displayed in "Resource List" can be filtered by entering the virtual storage, size and resource name and clicking <Search>.
Select the resource to register from the "Resource List".
Click <OK>.
The resources are registered in the resource pool.
Modifying a Resource

When changing "Subnet address/mask", refer to "Modifying When There are Managed Servers on the Subnet".
Modifying When There are Managed Servers on the Subnet
When there are managed servers on the subnet, use the following procedure to change the network address or subnet mask:
Register the tenant admin LAN resource information which has the network address or subnet mask after changing.
Change the destination for connection on the tenant admin LAN of all L-Servers belonging to the subnet before changing.
Delete the tenant admin LAN used before the change, when necessary.

When using Thin Provisioning or Automatic Storage Layering, the destination resource pools that can be selected differ depending on whether Thin Provisioning and Thick Provisioning of storage pools are configured or not.
For details on destination resource pools and the resources which can be registered, refer to "4.3.1.2 Storage Configuration" of the "Setup Guide CE".
Note
When the disk resource to be moved is a LUN created in advance or a disk resource for virtual L-Servers, it is recommended to delete the data on the disk beforehand. For details on how to delete data on the disks, refer to the cautionary notes of "7.5 Storage Resources".
