Installation Guide
8. Enter the fully qualified name or IP address of the Management Appliance that
supports this EVM host agent.
NOTE: A fully qualified appliance name or IP address is required to establish network
communication between EVM host agents and the EVM server.
A default Management Appliance name is derived as follows:
• For G1 appliances: The letters “swma” and the last 6 letters of the appliance serial
number
• For G2 appliances: The letters “sma” and all 12 letters of the appliance serial number
If the default appliance name has changed, enter the current appliance name, as shown in
the upper right-hand corner of the OSM Home Page.
For example:
• If the Management Appliance name is “MyAppliance” and the domain is
“dept.com,” then for a fully qualified name, enter
MyAppliance.dept.com
• If the Management Appliance IP address is “11.22.333.4444,” enter
11.22.333.4444
A check is performed to verify communication with the Management Appliance
name or IP address (Figure 2–7 displays):
• If this check fails, the question repeats.
Examples of failure messages include:
The ping to MyAppliance failed.
The ping to 11.22.333.4444 failed.
• After three failed inputs, the fourth input is automatically accepted. This
acceptance method allows the setup to continue in the event that the LAN is
down.
