Contributors netapp-rlithman

Discover Google Cloud NetApp Volumes systems and manage volumes and additional data services from the NetApp Console.

Discover an existing cloud storage system

Discover your storage systems from the Discoverable systems page.

Before you begin

Provide your credentials for your Google Cloud NetApp Volumes in Workload Factory.

About this task

You can discover a cloud storage system only once within an account and attach it to one workspace. The storage system can later be removed and re-associated to a different workspace.

Steps
  1. From the NetApp Console menu, select Storage, then Management, and then Discoverable systems.

  2. The count of discovered cloud storage systems displays. Select Discover.

  3. Select one or more storage systems and select Discover to add them to the Systems page.

Note
  • If you select an un-named storage system, you will receive a prompt to enter a name for the system.

  • If you select a storage system that doesn't have the credentials required to manage it from the Console, you'll receive a prompt to select credentials with the required permissions.

Result

The Console displays your discovered system on the Systems page. You can manage your storage systems in several ways, such as from Workloads in the NetApp Console and using ONTAP System Manager or using your cloud provider's storage management tools.
