1. Log into the eG administrative interface.
2. Follow the Components -> Add/Modify menu sequence in the Infrastructure tile of the Admin menu.

3. In the COMPONENT page that appears next, select Hitachi USP SAN as the Component type. Then, click the Add New Component button. This will invoke .

   Though the Mode is set to SNMP while adding a new component, the eG agent will be able to collect metrics from the target environment through the specified CLI path.
