The ICW prompts for the vCenter server details on PowerStore X model appliances. You must provide the details for an existing vCenter server that is hosted on an external server. This page is not displayed when configuring a PowerStore T model appliance.
The vCenter information enables automation during the initial configuration process. These steps can include establishing the vCenter connection, creating the vSphere cluster, configuring objects such as virtual distributed switches, and registering the VASA storage provider. If an existing datacenter name is specified, the cluster is created underneath that datacenter. Otherwise, a new datacenter with the specified name is automatically created for this cluster.
On PowerStore X models, you cannot change the vCenter connection to another vCenter instance. This limitation is due to the existence of the objects such as the datacenter, cluster, PowerStore X model ESXi nodes, virtual distributed switches, and other configurations. The following figure shows the PowerStore X model ICW Hypervisor page:
