In-band management

Using in-band-management, commands, events, and data travel through the host-to-controller interface. Unlike out-of-band management, commands and events are mixed with data.

NOTE: For detailed information about setting up in-band and out-of-band management see your system’s Deployment Guide at Dell.com/support/manuals.

When you add storage arrays by using this management method, specify only the host name or IP address of the host. After you add the specific host name or IP address, the host-agent software automatically detects any storage arrays that are connected to that host.

NOTE: Some operating systems can be used only as storage management stations. For more information about the operating system that you are using, see the MD PowerVault Support Matrix at Dell.com/support/manuals.
