Enclosure objects discovery order

The Storage Insight SDK Add-on creates an agentlet that calls the discovery script to discover the enclosure and its objects. The agentlet is bundled with the Storage Insight plug-in. The array objects are discovered in the following order:

If you have not selected capability of any of the above-mentioned options, the corresponding command is not invoked.

Note:

The discovery script and check_env.pl script are also passed an environment variable referred to as SI_PLUGIN_DIR. It is the location on the discovery host where the discovery script, or the additional scripts are installed. SI_PLUGIN_WORK_DIR is another environment variable, and it is used by the Storage Insight plug-in as the work area for storing any data files. For example, if the get-data option is implemented, the fetched data can be stored at this location.
