Installation Manual

HP Storage Essentials SRM 6.0 Installation Guide 287

2. Go to the <Installation_Directory>\CimExtensions\conf directory.

3. Open the UncShares.xml-sample file in a text editor.

4. Identify the host through which the UNC shares' scan is planned. This is the host through which

you will be scanning UNC shares from a different/remote host.

5. Add the host name and shared directory to the following line:

For example:

<UNC_SHARE PATH="\\RemoteSystem\MyShare1"/>

Where RemoteSystem is the name of the host and MyShare is the name of the shared

directory.

Repeat it for all of your shares, as shown in the following example:

<UNC_SHARE PATH="\\RemoteSystem\MyShare1"/>

<UNC_SHARE PATH="\\RemoteSystem\MyShare2"/>

<UNC_SHARE PATH="\\RemoteSystem\MyShare3"/>

6. Save the file as UncShares.xml.

7. Restart the CIM Extension service on the managed host.

8. Update the element details for the host from the management server by running a Discovery

Data Collection.

9. Edit the File System Viewer configuration page for the host selecting the desired UNC shares to

scan.

The username and password combination you used for discovering the host should have at

least read only permissions on the file shares which need to be scanned. So in most cases this

would be a service account which you can have created in the active directory. This service

account should be an admin on the “proxy FSV host” and should have read only (at least)

access to the UNC share

NOTE: You can use the IP address of the host instead of the name.

If you want to discover multiple UNC shares which have different credentials, use different

“proxy FSV hosts” as you can currently use only use one login / password pair [each UNC

share has its own associated login / password in this release].
