Register servers in Storage Advisor Embedded so that you can assign storage resources to them. For cluster configurations, you must register all of the servers (nodes) that make up the cluster as one server. In this case, when specifying the WWNs or iSCSI initiator names to use for connecting to storage system ports, add all of the WWNs or iSCSI initiator names of each server.

  • The server must be connected to the storage system by using a Fibre Channel (FC) connection or an iSCSI connection.
  • If you are using an FC connection, obtain the following:
    • Server name
    • OS type
    • WWN
  • If you are using an iSCSI connection, obtain the following:
    • Server name

      The server name must not include any commas (,), slashes (/), or backslashes (\).

    • OS type
    • iSCSI initiator name
  1. In the dashboard or in the navigation bar, click Servers.
  2. Click the plus sign (+).
  3. Specify the required information and register the server. If you want to continue to register additional servers, click + Add another server, and when you have finished registering all of the servers you want to register, click Submit.
