    • If you selected the storage subsystem or the Default Group, the newly-defined host node appears as a child node under the Default Group node in the Topology pane.


      Note:

      When you define a specific for the newly-defined host, the host node moves from the Default Group to become a child node under the storage subsystem node. The new node location indicates that the host has a specific mapping.

    • If you selected a host group, the newly defined host appears as a child node under the selected host group in the Topology pane.
