Adding servers manually
In order to manage your Storage Mirroring installations from the Install Console, you have to insert
the servers that you want to manage into the Install Console. Select Server, New Server or
right-click on the left pane and select Server, New.
Complete the fields on the Server Properties dialog box using the following criteria.
Remote Server Name—Enter the name of the server that you want to add to the Install Console.
Enterprise Install Console will ping the server to see if it is available. You can add a server that is
not currently running, but you will be notified if the server is unreachable. If you need to add a
server across a router, make sure the router has WMI access enabled.
Directory containing setup.exe—Specify the location, on the Enterprise Install Console
machine, where the Storage Mirroring installation files are located. You must have write access
to this location so that the Enterprise Install Console can write temporary files. Therefore, if you
are using a CD, copy the files from the CD to the Enterprise Install Console machine. The path
you enter will be dependent on the operating system you are using and if the Storage Mirroring
installation is from a copy of the CD or from a web download.
NOTE: If you are going to be adding a large number of servers manually, you can reduce manual
data entry by setting server defaults. Select File, Edit Default Server and specify any
fields that will be identical on your different servers. When editing a server, the same
options apply except the Remote Server Name is not applicable.
