Update resource inventory

Use this procedure to run inventory to incorporate changes that are made to resource data outside of PowerFlex Manager.

About this task

NOTE:Run inventory to incorporate external changes that are made to resource data outside of PowerFlex Manager. After running the inventory to incorporate these changes, you can update the details on any service that must include the new resource data.

Administrators and standard users can run the inventory on any resources. Standard users can run the inventory only on resources that are part of a node pool for which they have permission.

When you run the inventory, PowerFlex Manager checks to see whether DAS Cache is installed on any of the SVMs. If DAS Cache is installed, PowerFlex Manager disables some service features. PowerFlex Manager does not enable you to expand or remove resources within a service. You cannot enter service mode, perform a drive replacement, perform firmware updates, delete a service, or retry a service deployment.

Steps

  1. On the menu bar, click Resources.
  2. On the Resources page, click the All Resources tab.
  3. From the list of resources, select the check box next to the resources that you want to inventory.
  4. From the Details pane, click Run Inventory.

Next steps

See the PowerFlex Manager logs to view the start time and end time of the resource inventory operation. Go to Settings > Logs.
