Hello,

I need to implement below for our 4 VMAX arrays so that they can be managed by Unisphere also;

1) Unisphere for VMAX2 (10K, 20K, 40K) > 3 arrays

2) Unisphere for VMAX3 > 1 array

We have 1 Management Host (Local Configuration) on which Solutions Enabler is installed. Currently we SSH to this host and perform SYMCLI operations for all 4 arrays.

I have referred to Unisphere for VMAX Installation guide, but not understanding few points.

--> Is SMC different from Solutions Enabler ?

--> Local Configuration:

     (a) Does this configuration means that Unisphere for VMAX needs to be installed on our current Management host?

--> Remote Configuration:

     (a) Can I configure it in my company laptop?

     (b) Create New VM > Install Solutions Enabler on it > Install Unisphere for VMAX3 on it > In "SymAPI Connection Type" field, select what? "Local" if installing Unisphere on our original Host OR "Remote" and specify our Management Host Node Name and Net Port details?

Thanks.
