• The Device Manager server version 1.1.0-01 or later. For more information on the Device Manager

server, see the HP StorageWorks Command View XP Advanced Edition Device Manager Server

Installation and Configuration Guide

•

The Device Manager agent version 1.0 or later. For more information on the Device Manager agent, see

the HP StorageWorks Command View XP Advanced Edition Device Manager Agent Installation and

Configuration Guid

NOTE: To create, and delete file systems and device files on the host, and to use host management

functions (including file system and device file management), you must install Device Manager agent,

which is a component of Device Manager, on each host. Installing Device Manager agent onto a host

also installs Provisioning Manager agent.

CAUTION: Do not uninstall the Provisioning Manager agent separately, because Device Manager and

Provisioning Manager share a common agent. If you do, reinstall the Device Manager agent. After the

Device Manager agent is installed on a Windows

host, HP StorageWorks XP Provisioning Manager-

Agent is displayed in Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel.

• Diskpart.exe Command Line Utility Provisioning Manager contains functionality that requires the

Diskpart.exe command line utility provided by Microsoft

. When the OS of the host managed by

Provisioning Manager is Windows

2000, you need to obtain the diskpart.exe command line utility

separately. You can download this utility from the Microsoft

Website.

Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager must be installed on the host for path redundancy. Table 1-6 lists the required

versions for the different host operating systems. For more information on Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager,

please see the following publications:

NOTE: Although the presence of a path manager other than Dynamic Link Manager does not cause any

problems, there are limitations on GUI-based display and manipulation of LUs that are managed by another

path manager. For details, see the HP StorageWorks XP Provisioning Manager User Guide.
