NOTE: You can set the network configuration using a DHCP server.
2. Launch MD Storage Manager .

Add Storage Array and start the automatic discovery of systems in the Enterprise
Management Window (EMW).
NOTE: Only storage arrays configured with IP address on the same subnet as the management
stations will be detected.
NOTE: It may take several minutes for the discovery process to complete. Closing the
Automatic Discovery Status window before this stops the discovery process.
After discovery is complete, a confirmation screen is displayed.

Verifying Storage Array Discovery
The Automatic Discovery option automatically discovers both in-band and out-of-band arrays and adds
the storage arrays to the management domain. If the out-of-band or in-band connections shown on the

Help.

2. Verify that the array is on the local subnetwork. If it is not, using MD Storage Manager, manually add
the storage array to the subnet.
3. Verify that the status of each storage array is Optimal .
