    Yes the same applies for DMX. Can the operating system see any gatekeeper devices (or at least the VCMDB device) belonging to the DMX? Did you zone and provision gatekeepers from your DMX to the new mgmt server?

    Hi

    I only worked on Vmax. On Vmax you have to present a gatekeeper LUN to the management server then only u can discover the Vmax and manage it. Not sure if it is the same for DMX.
