Hi Marco,

DCNM will discover the entire SAN fabric from a single discovery job.  By entering the IP address of an initial seed switch, DCNM finds and adds adjacent switches.  It is likely that the .34 switch was found by one of the 2 previous discovery jobs.  There are two places in DCNM to determine if the switch has already been discovered.

You can find a list of all devices managed by DCNM, including SAN devices, in the Web GUI under [Inventory > Switches].  Additionally, you can launch the DCNM-SAN java client to view the fabric as well as configure the devices.  To launch the SAN client, open the DCNM Web GUI and find the 'DCNM-SAN' button in the upper right corner of the screen.  The SAN client accepts the same user credentials as the Web GUI.  Once logged into the SAN client, select the discovered fabric and 'open' it to view all of its devices.
