Publishing storage systems to the ESI Service
After installing the ESI Service, to publish or register supported systems so that the ESI Service and the ESI SCOM Management Packs can discover and monitor them as follows:
In the left pane of the ESI window on the ESI host controller system, select EMC Storage Integrator.
In the Actions pane, click Publish Connection.
In the Publish Connection Information dialog box, set the following field values:

Select ESI Service to receive the connection information for the systems. |

Accept the default port or clear the checkbox to specify a different port number. |
Port |
If you clear the Default Port checkbox, type the new port number. |
Click Refresh to get a list of available systems.
In the Local – Storage and Replication Systems pane, select the systems that you want to publish, and then click Add.
Click OK to accept the list of systems to publish in the Service – Storage and Replication Systems pane.
Note: This pane also lists systems that were previously published or registered with the ESI Service by using the ESI Service PowerShell Toolkit, the ESI PowerShell Toolkit, or this procedure.
Click Close to close the dialog box.
Note: You can also use the Add-EmcSystem cmdlet in the ESI Service PowerShell Toolkit to add or publish supported storage systems.
Removing or unpublishing systems from the ESI Service
Repeat the previous procedure for publishing systems, but in step 5 click Remove to remove the systems from the Service – Storage and Replication Systems pane.
Note: The ESI Service does not monitor replication systems, so replication systems cannot be published to the ESI Service.
