5.6.7 RAID System Registration
You need to register RAID systems to RGC using the RGC GUI to build network connections to the RAID systems.
Because the RGC Server communicates with RAID systems using RGC Agents, you also need to have one RGC Agent
for each network of the RAID systems. After installing and running the RGC Agents, follow the steps below to complete
the RAID system registration using the RGC GUI:
• Add the RGC Agents
• Scan the network of the RGC Agents to discover the RAID systems
• Register RAID systems
Add a RGC Agent
1. Enter the IP address of the Agent on the left panel of RGC GUI, and click the Add button.
2. An Agent icon ( ) with IP address will be displayed in the Structure tree section if the Agent has been
successfully added.
Scan RAID systems
1. Click the Agent icon ( ) on the Structure tree section to choose the Agent.
2. Click the Scan button to discover the RAID systems on the sub-network of the Agent. If you want to scan a specific IP
address range, enter the IP addresses in the IP Range field.
Note
1. If the RGC Agent is installed onto the local host server, you can also add it as one of the
agents.
2. Each agent can only be controlled by a RGC Server.
3. The color of an agent icon ( ) will fade away when it goes offline.
