I've found the solution. The device is running on FLARE version 02.23. After double checking the support matrix i found that it requires SMI-S Provider version 3.2 which does not support Windows Server 2008. I've installed the software on a Win2k3 machine and it works! Does that mean that the software is not backwards compatible?? The new Provider version does not support FLARE version 23!
Hi,  I want to monitor a EMC AX4-5i storage device with our monitoring software via the EMC SMI-S provider. I've installed the EMC SMI-S Provider on a management server, which has a IP connection to the storage device.  I've installated the latest version of the SMI-S provider and the flare version on the device is 02.23.  I receive the following error while adding the system to the provider:  Error: The requested object cannot be found. (com.emc.cmp.osls.se.osl.DiscoveryServices.StorInstanceDiscover():142 C:ERROR_CLASS_SOFTWARE F:ERROR_FAMILY_NOTFOUND R:1000052 L:2 1000052 : "No objects of the requested type were found" : "SymDiscover Failed" : 2 : 40 : "No devices were found")  I get the same error when i try to add a AX150i device.  How can i fix this?
Add AX4-5i array to ECOM with TestSmiProdider fails
