Configuring the Dell EMC XtremIO Array Using Arrays Page

For IntelliSnap backups from Commvault software, add the Dell EMC XtremIO storage array and its configuration information to the CommServe database.

Before You Begin

If you use the iSCSI protocol, then place the host computer in the same subnet that the cluster’s iSCSI IP is in.
Do not use any special characters in the volume name.
The array name is case sensitive. Type the array name in the Name box exactly as it is in the Dell EMC XtremIO UI.

From the navigation pane, click Manage > Infrastructure.

The Infrastructure page appears.
Click Arrays.
On the Arrays page, click Add.

In the Description box, enter the description for the array.
For credentials, do one of the following:
