Monitored Devices Configuration Guide
Chapter 18: Configuring P6000 and Enterprise Virtual Arrays
Important: The ABM Fully Qualified Domain Name must not be the same as the EVA array
name. Insight RS has no way to differentiate between two devices that have the same name.
Fulfill Configuration Requirements
Complete the following steps to configure your P6000 and Enterprise Virtual Arrays using ABM to be
monitored by Insight RS.
Task Complete?
Make sure Insight RS supports your P6000 disk array by checking the HP Insight
Remote Support Release Notes.
Add P6000 Command View to the Insight RS Console.
Add ELMC to the Insight RS Console.
Discover the P6000 in the Insight RS Console.
Add the device's Support Type and Support Identifier to the Insight RS Console.

Creating P6000 Command View Named Credentials
To create a Named Credential for every P6000 Command View instance to be monitored, complete the
following steps:
1. In the Insight RS Console, navigate to Company Information → Named Credentials.
2. Click Add New Credential.
3. Type a Credential Name.
4. In the Protocol drop-down list, select HP P6000 Command View.
5. Type the Username and Password for the P6000 Command View instance.
Configure the credentials for the ABM that is running P6000 Command View and actively managing
the array. If the array is not being managed by the instance of P6000 Command View you are pointing
to, you will see the EVA array but Insight RS will not be able to obtain the Serial Number or Product
Number information.
6. Click Save Info.
HP recommends also creating Named Credentials for the server that the P6000 Command View software
is running on.
Create the ELMC Protocol in the Insight RS Console
To configure ELMC in the Insight RS Console, complete the following steps:
1. In a web browser, log on to the Insight RS Console.
2. In the main menu, select Discovery and click the Credentials tab.
