You can use Ops Center Administrator to provision new storage capacity for business applications by using the NVMe over FC communication protocol.

Ops Center Administrator provides a workflow to create the required storage resources sequentially. The workflow reduces the manual work of managing storage systems, such as creating an NVM subsystem, registering a storage system logical volume as a namespace on the NVM subsystem, and configuring a data I/O route from the host and the logical volume.

The NVMe over FC provisioning workflow automatically selects and uses the optimal resources based on best practices that simplify the workflow and achieve optimization without requiring in-depth knowledge of the underlying infrastructure resource details. In addition, the user interface shows the configuration, capacity, and status of each infrastructure resource, and the relevance among several infrastructure resources.
