SAN Management Workstation Does Not Have a Fibre Channel Connection

SAN Management Workstation
Does Not Have a Fibre Channel Connection

Situation:

The SAN management workstation does not have a physical Fibre Channel connection into the SAN because the other management tools are all out-of-band. Can HBAnyware be run on this SAN management workstation?

Resolution:

HBAnyware can communicate with remote HBAs using out-of-band access as long as the remote host is running HBAnyware and the remote server.

To solve this problem:

Start HBAnyware.
From the Main menu, select Discovery/Out-of-Band/Add Host. The Add Remote Host dialog box appears.
In the Add Remote Host dialog box, enter either the name or the IP-address of the host and click OK. When the selected host is discovered, that host and any HBAs running on it will be displayed in the discovery tree.
