Chapter 3 Adding and Troubleshooting Devices Using Device Management
Using the RME Devices Window
Adding Devices to RME
You can either:
Add devices manually (See Adding Devices to RME Manually)
Or
Add devices automatically (See Adding Devices to RME Automatically)
Before adding devices to RME, you must add devices into Device and Credential Repository (Common
Services > Device and Credentials > Device Management).
By default, the Automatically Manage Devices from Credential Repository option in the Device
Management Settings window is enabled.
When you add devices to Device and Credential Repository and RME is down, the devices are added
automatically when RME comes up again. The devices are added automatically, if the Automatically
Manage Devices from Credential Repository option is enabled.
If this option is not enabled, you must manually add the devices.
Notes on Cluster Management Devices and Proxy Devices
The following is additional information on:
Cluster Management Devices
If you have added the DSBU Cluster Commander to DCR with the device type as Cisco Cluster
Management Suite, it does not appear in the RME device selector. You must add this Commander
in DCR, as Member. Normally, the Commander is 0
th
member of the cluster.
For more information, see the section Cluster Managed in the Adding Devices to the Device and
Credential Repository Common Services Online help.
Similar to other devices, these cluster members are managed in RME and you can perform all RME
tasks on them.
Proxy Devices
All relationships between the Cisco Standard devices and Proxy Managers are considered while
adding devices to DCR.
The Proxy managed devices can be added to RME in the same way as other Cisco Standard devices.
RME displays these Proxy managed devices in the same way as it displays other Cisco Standard
Devices.
After adding devices to RME, RME automatically schedules for a device inventory and configuration
collection.
