Discovering and Adding Devices
This section details the process of discovering network devices and then adding
them to the STM database. There are two ways to accomplish this—Network
Discovery by simply entering an IP address range to scan and by adding devices
individually one at a time.
The method recommended largely depends on the number of devices added. To
discover and add a larger number of devices across your enterprise, the Network
Discovery is available. This chapter provides instructions for quickly populating
your STM database with the network devices.

Network Discovery
The STM Discovery feature quickly scans for EMC, LSI (IBM 3/4/5 series, Dell
MD3xxx series, and SUN 2K/6K series), NetApp Filers, VMware vCenter and
Standalone ESX arrays.
When new arrays or hosts are discovered, STM displays the hostname and IP
Addresses so you can easily assign them to the management server to be
configured.
Note: For EMC and LSI based arrays, your SMI-S provider must be installed and
configured for discovery to work.
