I am trying to add a NetApp Storage Provider in VMM and receive the following error in VMM.
Error (26263)
Registration of storage provider http://sestoas536.domain.lan:5988 for user se_smis failed from SESTOVM501.domain.lan with error code HostAgentFail.
Recommended Action
Specify valid provider, port and user credentials for storage discovery.
Info:
Windows Server 2012
VMM 2012 Sp1
NetApp SMI-S Agent Version 4.1 (installed on a separate Win2012)
The NetApp SMI-S agent is able to communicate with the NetApp storage and shows LUNS, DISKS etc.. as it should.
The NetApp Agent User account (se_smis) is a local Windows Account that is a member of the Local Administrators Group. (same users/creds are used in VMM run as account)
The NetApp SMI-S agent logs the following when the VMM i connecting:
01-Mar-2013 14:56:41.136 INFO cimserver audit: Basic authentication attempt: successful = TRUE, from IP address = 157.247.204.3, user = se_smis.
01-Mar-2013 14:56:41.136 INFO cimserver audit: MESSAGE ID: <1> A CIM References operation is invoked by user "se_smis" connected from system "157.247.204.3".

01-Mar-2013 14:56:41.151 INFO cimserver audit: Basic authentication attempt: successful = TRUE, from IP address = 157.247.204.3, user = se_smis.
And log is repeated during VMM:s entire discovovery process.
