Add or Modify Storage Centers for a Server or Host

Servers are not available for management until they are defined in the System Configuration tab.

1. In the Server Connections area of the navigation pane, connect to the server to configure.
2. In the Configuration area of the navigation pane, click Configure Server.
3. Click the System Configuration tab.
   • Add a Storage Center
     1. Select an existing Storage Center in the Discovered Systems list or click Add New System to add a Storage Center.
        NOTE:Replay Manager Service cannot auto discover IPv6 addresses. To add a new Storage Center entry that uses an IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 address or DNS host name of the Storage Center in the Host field.
     2. Enter the host name or IP address in the Host field, User Name, and Password for the Storage Center. The user must have Administrator or Volume Manager privileges for the Storage Center.
        CAUTION:If reconfiguring a Storage Center user from an Administrator to a Volume Manager user, restores may fail if the new Storage Center user does not have access to the view volumes previously created by Replay Manager on the Storage Center. To ensure the Volume Manager user can access the view volumes, either add the Replay Manager VSS subfolders to the Volume Manger’s user group, or move the view volumes into a folder associated with that user group in Storage Center.
        NOTE:To create a Storage Center user with Volume Manager privilege, the SCOS version must be 6.1 or later.
     3. Select the Replay Manager server from the drop-down menu.
        NOTE:The “This Server” field is needed only for Microsoft servers.
     4. Click the appropriate button. The button is labeled as either Add or Update, depending on whether the Storage Center is being added for the first time or the Storage Center is already configured.
   • Remove a Storage Center
     1. In the Defined Systems list, select the Storage Center you want to remove.
     2. Click Remove.
