About Storage Insight Add-on
Storage Insight Add-on, with its deep array discovery capabilities, provides you the detailed information about the storage enclosures in the data center. Storage Insight Add-on lets you view the detailed storage information on the enclosure to the level of adapters and disks.
For information on the Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager Management Server versions that the add-on is compatible with, refer to the Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager Hardware and Software Compatibility List (HSCL).
After you configure deep discovery for the enclosures, the discovery happens once every six hours, and Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager database is updated accordingly.
Note:
To perform deep array discovery of enclosures, you require the access to the storage views and operations.
The Storage Insight Add-on also lets you define the classifications for the LUNs in the data center. You can classify the LUNs based on one or more parameters. For example, enclosure name, vendor, RAID level of a LUN, and the LUN type. The Storage Insight Add-on also lets you perform the maintenance of the Dynamic Multi-Pathing paths in array ports and adapters.
