2 Add the IP address for each client requiring access to the arrays connected

to the host. Or remove the IP address for any clients you no longer want to

have access.

Single client IP addresses can be added, or a range of IP addresses can

be added using the wild card “*”. For example; 10.62.128.* grants access

to any client on subnet 128. The use of wildcards is recommended when

connecting from clients configured for dynamic host configuration protocol

(DHCP).

3 Save the configuration file.

4 Verify that the client browser now has access by entering the following URL:

http://<hostname-or-ipaddress>:4096

The following message should be returned by the host:

commandview sdm web server

PROBLEM After installing Command View, the arrays I expected to see

in the Launcher do not appear.

When I run the armdsp -i command, the arrays I expected to

see in the output do not appear.

SOLUTION During the software installation process, the armdiscover command is

launched to locate all arrays connected to the host. This information is then

used to populate the Launcher screen. If there is a functional array connected

to the host that does not appear in the Launcher screen, it may be necessary to

repeat the discovery process.

To rediscover the arrays:

1 Check the disk array hardware and make sure it is operating properly, and

that the array is connected to the host, switch, or hub.

2 Manually stop the HostAgent and OpenDIAL services. Refer to the

command view sdm installation and user guide

for more information on

this procedure.

3 Delete all files in the ../sanmgr/hostagent/pdb folder. This causes

OpenDIAL to rebuild the database files with the array devices that are

discovered.

4 Manually restart the HostAgent and OpenDIAL services.

5 Execute the armdiscover command to initiate the discovery process.
