Discovering Applications, Backup Servers and Hosts220
IMPORTANT: If the management server cannot communicate with an application, it labels
the application as “Discovered”. The management server could find the application, but it
could not obtain additional information about it.
5. Refer to the topic, “Adding a Discovery Schedule” in the User Guide for information about
automating the gathering of Discovery Data Collection. If you run into problems with discovery,
see ”Troubleshooting” on page 247.
Discovery from HP SE
To obtain details:
1. Select Tools > Storage Essentials > Home > .
2. Verify the File SRM option is selected. The File SRM option appears for hosts that have the CIM
Extension and an operating system that supports File SRM.
NOTE: If you plan to have File SRM scan a host, make sure you have 220 to 230 MB for
each set of 1 million files.
3. Select the discovery group from which you want to Get Details. If you are obtaining Get Details
for hosts for the first time, make sure All Discovery Groups is selected.
You can use discovery groups to break up getting Get Details. For example, instead of Get
Details for all of the elements, you could specify that the management server gets the element
details for only the elements in Discovery Group 1, thus, saving you time. You add an element to
a discovery group by modifying the properties used to discover the element. See ”Modifying the
Properties of a Discovered Address” on page 90.
4. Click the Get Details button.
During Get Details, the software changes its status light from green to red. You can view the
progress of gathering details by clicking Tools > Storage Essentials > Home > Discovery >
View Logs.
When the software completes getting all elements details, it displays GETTING ALL DETAILS
COMPLETED on the View Logs page.
IMPORTANT: If the management server cannot communicate with an application, it labels
the application as “Discovered”. The management server could find the application, but it
could not obtain additional information about it.
5. Refer to the topic, “Adding a Discovery Schedule” in the User Guide for information about
automating the gathering of Get Details. If you run into problems with discovery, see
”Troubleshooting” on page 247.
Changing the Oracle TNS Listener Port
The software uses port 1521 by default to communicate with the TNS Listener service on the Oracle
server. If your port is different or you use multiple ports, you can assign a new port number.
