The procedure to register the server is as follows:
On the global navigation tab, click Server.
The registered servers are displayed on the Main pane.
On the Action pane, click Register under Server.
The information input screen is displayed. (select the registration options)
Enter the necessary information, and then click Next.
The information input screen is displayed. (enter the detailed server information)
Enter the necessary information, and then click Register.
Note
The Job Status pane allows you to confirm the completion of server registration processing. However, since the information in the Job Status pane is automatically deleted 24 hours after processing is completed, check deleted information in "12.1 Display Operation History". The server registration processing has completed when the displayed items of the Operation History screen is as follows:
Action: Register Server
State: Complete
Result: Success
Target: IP address for registered server
Do not perform any operation for this server until the registration processing has been completed.
Do not register a server which is managed by another Management Server.
To install the Storage Cruiser's agent on the Managed Server which the AdvancedCopy Manager's agent has been installed, it is necessary to register its Managed Server again after deleting it.
If the server is a dual stack device to which both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are configured, register either of the two addresses.
For a server on which the following agent is installed, even if IPv6 address exists in the server, its registration is accepted only with IPv4 address.
Storage Cruiser's agent that does not support IPv6 address
Point
If the server where the ETERNUS SF Agent is installed is a clustered system, select/input each item as shown in the following table and register both the logical node and the physical node.
However, when using the Storage Cruiser's agent only, registration of the logical node is not necessary.
When not operating Storage Cruiser and when operating AdvancedCopy Manager with the logical node only, registration of the physical node is not necessary.
Item Name | Items That Should Be Selected / Input | |
|---|---|---|
For Logical Nodes | For Physical Nodes | |
VMware ESX | Set to "No". | Set to "No". |
Register Mode | Set to "Manual". |
|
Use AdvancedCopy Manager | Set to "Yes". |
|
IP Address | Specify the IP address of the logical node. | Specify the IP address of the physical node. |
AdvancedCopy Communication Port | Specify the transaction communication daemon/service port number that was set during the cluster setup. | If "Yes" was selected for Use AdvancedCopy Manager, specify the following port numbers that were set during the installation of the AdvancedCopy Manager's agent.
|
When registering VMware host or VMware guest, select "Yes" for VMware ESX, and enter the VMware host user name, password, and IP address. When the VMware host is registered, all the VMware guests that were created in that VMware host are automatically registered.
When VMware guests are not displayed, execute the following procedure:
Install VMware Tools in the VMware guest. (Recommended)
Check that the VMware guest has started.
With Web Console, perform the Reload Conf. operation for the VMware host that is registered in the ETERNUS SF system.
In a VMware vSphere Virtual Volumes environment, a VMware guest created in the VVOL datastore is automatically registered on the ETERNUS SF system after the power is turned on for the first time. However, the VMware host to which the VMware guest belongs must be registered to the ETERNUS SF system beforehand.
After the VMware guest has been recognized, if you want to update the status of the VMware guest to the latest one, perform the Reload Conf. operation for the VMware host.
