Dell PowerStore Importing External Storage to PowerStore Guide
Import security
Communication between the source system, hosts, and the PowerStore cluster is provided by using HTTPS certificates. These certificates are used to establish secure communication between the following import components:
- PowerStore cluster and the source system
- PowerStore cluster and the host systems
PowerStore Manager provides an option to view and accept the remote certificates when adding a host to the PowerStore cluster.
NOTE:PowerStore Manager is a web-based software application that enables you to monitor and manage storage resources, virtual machines, and appliances within a PowerStore cluster.
When the source storage volumes are configured with CHAP, data transfer is secured with CHAP support, Discovery CHAP, and Authentication CHAP. The PowerStore cluster supports both single and mutual CHAP. For more information about CHAP support, see CHAP restrictions.
