Inserting a Server
If a machine is not displayed on the Management Console, it can be manually inserted. This feature is useful for machines that
are across a router or on a different network segment. These types of machines will not automatically appear in the
Management Console because the UDP heartbeat is not passed by the router.
1. Select Insert , Server .
2. Type the machine name or IP address and the port number if it is different than the default.
3. Select Test to determine if the machine is available and running Storage Mirroring. Depending on the results of the test,
you will see one of the following:
‹ If the machine was located and Storage Mirroring is running on it, the machine name will be inserted into the
Management Console.
‹ If the machine was located, but Storage Mirroring is not running on it, you will be prompted that the machine was
found, but Storage Mirroring is not available. You will be given the choice of inserting the machine anyway. Click
Yes
to insert the server into the Management Console or click No to return to the Insert Server dialog box. Enter
another server name or click Cancel to return to the Management Console without inserting a server.
‹ If the server could not be located, you will see a message to the right of the Test button stating that it was not found.
Enter another server name or click Cancel to return to the Management Console without inserting a server.
NOTE: If a machine is manually inserted into the Management Console, it will automatically be saved in your workspace
and will appear the next time that the Management Console is started.
NOTE: At any time while Storage Mirroring is attempting to locate the machine, click Stop to cancel the test.
If you do not manually test a machine before inserting it, Storage Mirroring will automatically test it for you.
