h2. Manual Discovery


This discovery method uses a discovery file that you create and upload to the Sun xVM Ops Center Gear module. The file contains IP addresses for the servers that you want to discover.

You do not need to use a server's actual IP address. You can use an IP address that is on the same subnet as the server to be discovered. The IP address is used to route the work to the proxy that instantiates the manual server in the product.

Here's an example of a discovery file:
{code}
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

<servers>

<server name="server1" model="V20z" guid="123"
ipAddress="129.147.247.1" >

<ethernetPort name="GB_0" mac="00:09:3D:11:CC:0E"/>

</server>

<server name="server2" model="V20z" guid="123"
ipAddress="129.147.247.2" >

<ethernetPort name="GB_0" mac="00:0A:2D:11:AC:31"/>

</server>

</servers>
{code}
