As Glen already mentioned Celerra Data movers do not run any Navisphere Agent - these Data Mover Initiators are manually registered on the CLARiiON if you have the Gateway model or FC Enabled Model ( I am assuming you have the FC Enabled NS480). And the IP Address associated with the Data Mover Initiators are either of the Control Station or the internal IP Addresses of the Data movers.
There should not have been any effect after the DART and Flare upgrade as earlier also these were unmanaged hosts - may be you have not noticed them before.
What Rupal mentioned is correct for any other SAN attached hosts which has Navisphere Agent running - but not for the Celerra Data movers.
Thanks,
Sandip

the celerra does use the Navisphere Host Agent - it will show up as unmanaged or not reachable

Ensure that the Agent IP address listed in Navisphere is routable from the CLARiiON array. To test this, try to ping the host from the array. If the ping responds, the Agent service is not running. Restart the Agent service on the host if it installed on the host.
