To enable/disable auto-discovery, select
Enable auto-discovery.
(This option toggles
between enabled and disabled.)

Update the auto-discovery settings, as required:
●
In the
Auto discovery scopes
field, enter a comma-separated list of scopes. To be
discovered by the auto-discovery task, the local system and remote system must have at
least one scope in common. The default scope for an Adaptec Storage Manager Agent
is Auto Discovery.
●
In the
Auto discovery base port number
field, enter the port’s TCP/IP address. You can
use any port for auto-discovery. However, to use an existing SLP infrastructure, you
must use port 427. The default port is 34570. If you change the port, you must restart
the Adaptec Storage Manager Agent for the change to take effect.
●
In the
Auto discovery heartbeat interval
field, enter the number of seconds between
each auto-discovery check. This number determines how often Adaptec Storage
Manager checks for changes in remote system resources. The default is 360 seconds.
●
In the
SLP Directory Agent address
field, enter the TCP/IP address of the SLP
Directory Agent. Applies only if you specified port 427 for an existing SLP
infrastructure.

Working with Display Groups
You can organize related local and remote systems into display groups within the Enterprise
View to make monitoring and modifying your storage space faster, easier, and more efficient.
Once display groups are created, they’re sorted alphabetically and appear in the Enterprise
View below any systems that are not part of a display group.
A system can belong to only one display group at a time; you can’t include the same system in
multiple display groups.
