Adding the asset infrastructure to an Infrastructure Management Server (IMS)

After you add an Infrastructure Management Server (IMS) to the resiliency domain, you add the asset infrastructure to the IMS.

The asset infrastructure can include hosts, virtualization servers, and enclosures (storage arrays used for replication). The assets you must add depend on the use case and environment.

See About the asset infrastructure.

Note:

Replication appliances are added in a different way from other types of asset infrastructure.

See Adding RecoverPoint appliance for replication.

To add the asset infrastructure to an IMS

  1. Prerequisites

    To verify supported assets, refer to the Hardware and Software Compatibility List (HSCL).

  2. Navigate

    Settings (menu bar) > Infrastructure

    You can also access this page from the Quick Actions menu > Manage Asset Infrastructure.

  3. Under the data center, locate the IMS and click Manage Asset Infrastructure.

    The Settings page for the IMS is displayed. You can add, edit, or remove assets.

    Tip: You must add Hyper-V servers as hosts rather than as virtualization servers.

    See Managing host assets for an IMS.

    See Managing Hyper-V assets for an IMS.

    See Managing VMware virtualization servers for an IMS.

    See Managing enclosure assets for an IMS.
