This process can be carried out using either Web Console or stgxfwcmsetdev command.
Note
Device information on a Managed Server must first be stored in the repository.
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.
While synchronous backup replication processing is being performed, device information cannot be acquired correctly. Therefore, if you need to acquire information for a device, all synchronous processing must first be cancelled, and you can then acquire the device information.
