Configuring HPE 3PAR StoreServ /Primera Storage Array Using Array Management

For IntelliSnap backups from the Commvault software using either the HPE 3PAR StoreServ or the HPE Primera storage array, add the HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage array and its configuration information to the CommServe database.

Before You Begin

For the Name box in the procedure below, you might need to calculate the storage array name, depending on the application that you are using to manage the storage array.

If you are using the StoreServ Management Console (SSMC) to manage your array, then you do not need to calculate the array name. In the Name box, enter the World Wide Name (WWN) of the storage system.

If you are not using SSMC, then for the Name box, calculate the storage array name.

For the credentials below, the user type must be local user with edit and super level. The domain user is not supported.

  1. On the ribbon in the CommCell Console, click the Storage tab, and then click Array Management.

    The Array Management dialog box appears.

  2. Click Add.

    The Array Properties dialog box appears.
