Installing EMC SMI-S Provider
EMC Solutions Enabler provides a host with SYNAPI, CARAPI and STORAPI shared libraries and
the Symmetrix Command Line Interface (SYMCLI) for use by EMC Solutions Enabler
applications. There are some 3rd party storage management tools that use the base EMC Solutions
Enabler functionality to discover and manage EMC Storage systems, while other tools use the EMC
SMI-S Provider component of EMC Solutions Enabler to manage EMC Storage systems. HP 3PAR
Online Import Utility for EMC Storage will manage the EMC Storage systems via EMC SMI-S
Provider (version 4.6.1.6).
The EMC SMI-S Provider is a component of EMC Solutions Enabler and requires underlying EMC
Solutions Enabler code to function correctly. However, installation of the base EMC Solutions
Enabler software does NOT include the EMC SMI-S Provider component.
Installation of the EMC SMI-S Provider includes only the necessary underlying EMC Solutions
Enabler code, not a full installation of EMC Solutions Enabler.
NOTE: It is technically possible to install the EMC SMI-S Provider on a machine where EMC
Solutions Enabler is already installed, but be aware that the EMC SMI-S Provider installation will
uninstall any existing Solution Enabler software and reinstall only the subset of Solution Enabler
that comes with the EMC SMI-S Provider.
EMC Solutions Enabler and the EMC SMI-S Provider are provided by EMC as separately installable
products and are available from the EMC Powerlink website.
1. Download EMC SMI-S Provider 4.6.1.6 Installer from EMC. An EMC login account is required.

2. Launch the se76123 installer for Windows. The EMC Solutions Enabler welcome page appears
prompting you to install Solutions Enabler with SMI version V4.6.1.6.
NOTE: HP 3PAR Online Import Utility for EMC Storage only supports installing EMC SMI-S
Provider on Windows.
