Add and manage storage clusters using NetApp Hybrid Cloud Control
You can add storage clusters to the management node assets inventory so that they can
be managed using NetApp Hybrid Cloud Control (HCC). The first storage cluster added
during system setup is the default authoritative storage cluster, but additional clusters can
be added using HCC UI.
After a storage cluster is added, you can monitor cluster performance, change storage cluster credentials for
the managed asset, or remove a storage cluster from the management node asset inventory if it no longer
needs to be managed using HCC.
What you’ll need
• Cluster administrator permissions: You have permissions as administrator on the authoritative storage
cluster. The authoritative cluster is the first cluster added to the management node inventory during system
setup.
• Element software: Your storage cluster version is running NetApp Element software 11.3 or later.
• Management node: You have deployed a management node running version 11.3 or later.
• Management services: You have updated your management services bundle to version 2.17 or later.
Options
• Add a storage cluster
• Confirm storage cluster status
• Edit storage cluster credentials
• Remove a storage cluster
