d. Select the fabric in the tree view.
e. Enter a name in the Component Group Name box. You can use the default fabric name,
but HP recommends that you change it to a name that is meaningful to you. This name
is used when generating reports, so it should be one that is easily recognized as being
associated with the fabric on which data collection will be done. (Mouse-over pop-ups
provide detail on SAN settings.)

Your new component group name (MyComponentGroup in this example) appears in the
right panel of the SAN Visibility window.
g. Click Yes to confirm the name change.

a. Enter the IP address of the primary switch for the SAN for which you want a report.
Information will be collected for all devices connected to this switch.
b. Uncheck the Discover connected switches check box to discover and perform data collection
for a single switch. Checking this check box discovers and performs data collection for
all interconnected switches.
c. Enter the switch login and password, if prompted. Enter the Read Community value to
discover the switch.
d. If you have created more than one fabric, use the Select Component Group list to select
the fabric to which you want to add this switch. The default value is “Public”.
e. Click Discover Switch. This confirms the availability and accessibility of the switch.
f. Click Add to add the switch to the reporting configuration. The extended switch information
with IP addresses appears in the right panel.
