Manage Paths
Multiple path settings can be created to designate specific paths to commands on hosts.The specified path is appended to the existing path and is used to search for commands (for example, /usr/bin:/usr/sbin). Certain commands, such as scli, require an absolute path.
For additional pre-requisite details, see Host Resources Prerequisites and Configurations and Host Inventory Configuration Steps.
1. Select Admin > Data Collection > Host Inventory.
2. Click Manage Paths.
3. Click Add to configure settings and then click OK.
 
Field
Description
Sample Values
Domain*
Select the Storage Viewer Domain from the list; for most environments, only one Domain is displayed. Multiple domains facilitate management for Managed Services Partners (MSPs).
 
Name*
Assign a name to identify this Paths setting that you are defining.
 
Path*
Provide the paths to additional software locations that are not already present in the PATH environment variable. These paths identify the locations of commands that the Data Collector may execute to collect details from subsystems such as Veritas Volume Manager or QLogic.
There is no standard for paths, therefore you must supply the details to enable the Data Collector to locate the commands. Note that Linux requires a colon (:) separator for the paths, while Windows uses a semicolon (;) separator.
Examples:
Linux:
/opt/QLogic_Corporation/SANsurferCLI:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin:/opt/EMLXemlxu/bin:/usr/sbin/hbanyware:/opt/HBAnyware
Windows:
C:\Program Files\Emulex\Util\HBAnyware;C:\Program Files\QLogic\SANSurfer
 
OS type*
Select either Linux or Windows
