You can add c7000 enclosures to inventory and monitor the hardware. This is useful when you have enclosures that have already been deployed and you cannot migrate them into HPE OneView. Enclosures with G6 and later ProLiant server blades cannot be managed, but can be monitored.
Monitoring hardware in c7000 enclosures can be done with a free license called HPE OneView Standard. For more information, see License types.

Move a c7000 enclosure from monitored to managed
Once an enclosure is monitored in HPE OneView, if you decide to change from monitored to managed, you must remove the enclosure from HPE OneView and then migrate or add it back as a managed enclosure, obtaining the appropriate license. Migration keeps the configuration settings, whereas add does not migrate the configuration. See Move a monitored c7000 enclosure to managed status for more information.
