Adding a Storage Array to the CommServe Database

You can add a storage array into the CommServe database and configure the information for IntelliSnap backups.

Before You Begin

You can add an array without entering the credentials, but snapshot operations fail if the communication with the array cannot be established. Check whether you need to enter the credentials on the array documentation.

Procedure

1. From the navigation pane, click Storage > Arrays.

2. In the upper-right, click Add arrays.

   The Add array dialog box appears.

3. On the General tab, do the following:

   1. In the Snap vendor box, select the snap vendor.

      If the snap vendor that you selected has snap configuration properties, then a snap configuration properties tab appears in the Add array dialog box.

   2. In the Array name box, type the array name.

   3. In the Control host box, type the control host IP.

   4. In the Username and Password boxes, type the credentials for the array.

   5. Click Next.

4. On the Controllers tab, in the Available controllers box, select an array controller.

5. Click Next.

6. On the Snap configurations tab, review the settings, and then click Save.
