After installing the plug-in, all the file systems on that host are automatically discovered and displayed in the Resources page. You can add these file systems to resource groups to perform data protection operations.

Before you begin

  • You must have completed tasks such as installing the SnapCenter Server, adding hosts, and creating storage system connections.

  • If the file systems reside on a Virtual Machine Disk (VMDK) or raw device mapping (RDM), you must deploy the SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere and register the plug-in with SnapCenter.

    For more information, see Deploy SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere.

Steps

  1. In the left navigation pane, click Resources, and then select the appropriate plug-in from the list.

  2. In the Resources page, select Path from the View list.

  3. Click Refresh Resources.

    The file systems are displayed along with information such as type, host name, associated resource groups and policies, and status.
