Integrating the 3PAR StoreServ system with the HP 3PAR StoreServ File
Controller
Three steps are required to complete the integration of the 3PAR StoreServ system with the HP
3PAR StoreServ File Controller. These steps must be taken on each HP 3PAR StoreServ File Controller
system that is attached to the 3PAR StoreServ system.
Registering the 3PAR StoreServ SMI-S provider
Complete the following steps to register the SMI-S provider with the HP 3PAR StoreServ File
Controller:
1. Open an elevated PowerShell command prompt. To do so, right-click the PowerShell icon in
the desktop task bar and select Run as Administrator.
2. Register the provider:
a. Enter the following command:
Register-SmisProvider ConectionUri http://<3PAR StoreServ system
ip address>:<port>
The default port number is 5988. However, your 3PAR StoreServ configuration may be
different.
b. When prompted, enter the credentials for the 3PAR StoreServ system. The default user
name is 3paradm and the default password is 3pardata.
NOTE: If you are using virtual domains on the StoreServ system, use the credentials for
the domain that will be managed by the HP 3PAR StoreServ File Controller to register the
SMI-S provider. For more information about virtual domains, see the HP 3PAR StoreServ
Storage Concepts Guide.
c. When the registration completes, the PowerShell command prompt will return with no
errors. If errors are reported, see the error description for assistance.
3. Confirm the provider has been registered by entering the command Get-StorageProvider. The
resulting output should list the SMI-S provider registered with the supplied IP address. The
Manufacturer should be listed as HP 3PAR.
