The array password cannot be changed in the SMI-S provider. When the customer changes the array password every quarter, you would need to remove the array from SMI-S and re-add it using the new credential each time.

To remove the array from the provider follow the below steps:

1. From the testsmiprovider, run the ein command against the class emc_storagesystem. Make a note of the instance thrown up for the array you want to remove.

2. To remove that array, run the command remsys. When prompted for the object path, specify the instance noted in step 1.

3. Run a refersh system to refresh the database(refsys).

4. Once you confirm the array is removed, add the array back using the addsys(I assume its a VNX/Clariion).

Regards

Thanks.

Is it possiable to script it?

My customer owns around 25 arrays, this procedure will be so noised.
