DellEMCStorageClientWindows

Hello,

 

I have the following scenario, two sites with Sc5020. Each site has its own VA DSM server with two different versions: Site A - 19.1.1.579  and Site B - 19.1.20.30.

Trying to manage both sites form my laptop I have to install the Dell EMC Storage Client for windows. The problem I am facing is that the client version has to match the DSM version. The client is not even backwards compatible. With a newer client I cannot connect to an older DSM appliance.

Any solution would be good. I am not looking in having multiple VMs on my laptop just to run a tool for Compellent

 

Thanks.

Two solutions comes in mind:

1. Use Unisphere... which means use your Browser to access DSM Datacollector or SC directly
2. Upgrade only DSM Datacollector to the same version. The DSM DC can manage older SC

Btw: we use only use one DSM DC to manage all sites

Regards,
Joerg
