The ism_add command enables you to add administrative users and storage devices to the ISM server.
| Element | Purpose | Key Considerations |
|---|---|---|
| -server hostname | Specifies the name of the computer on which the ISM server is running | If you omit this option, this command looks first for an ISM server on the local computer and then for the first ISM server to respond over the network. |
| -admin name@host | Adds an administrative user to the ISM server | This user can make configuration changes to the ISM server. |
| -device name | Adds a storage device to the ISM server | ISM supports up to four active devices. |
| -type type | Designates the type of storage device | You must choose a device type that ISM supports. For more information, see Adding and Deleting Storage Devices. |
