PDFs
You can configure NetApp Hybrid Cloud Control to manage assets from two or more vCenters that are not using Linked Mode.
You should use this process after your initial installation when you need to add assets for a recently scaled installation or when new assets were not added automatically to your configuration. Use these APIs to add assets that are recent additions to your installation.
