Ike, Do you have a Windows Firewall port exception for port 5988 on server R810-EX-SRV03.test.local? Or simply have the Windows Firewall down?

This error would seem to indicate that the storage management service on the SCVMM 2012 host was unable to connect to that port, and that would generally happen if the Firewall is up on that server.  Windows Firewall would, by default, disallow any connections to most unknown port targets.

There is a CLI utility to test your SMI-S provider. I'd suggest you to test your SMI-S provider first to see if it works and can see the VNX array. You can go to SMI support documents on Powerlink and find more information on installation and configuration of SMI-S document.
