If your SnapCenter host is part of a FC/iSCSI environment, you might need to install additional software on the system to enable access to ONTAP storage.
The Host Utilities support FC and iSCSI, and it enables you to use MPIO on your Windows Servers.
This software works with Windows MPIO drivers to manage multiple paths between NetApp and Windows host computers.
A DSM is required for high availability configurations.
For more information, see the Host Utilities and ONTAP DSM for Windows MPIO product documentation and the Interoperability Matrix Tool on the NetApp Support Site.
