ETERNUS Disk storage systems ETERNUSmgr User Guide -Introduction-

Chapter 1 About ETERNUSmgr

The ETERNUSmgr provides functions for administrators to manage the ETERNUS DX400 series, ETERNUS DX8000 series, ETERNUS2000, ETERNUS4000, ETERNUS8000, ETERNUS3000, ETERNUS6000, and GR series disk ETERNUS Disk storage systems (hereaf ter, "ETERNUS Disk storage system" or "device"). There are two parts that support the manage- ment facilities, the ETERNUSmgr frontend and ETERNUSmgr backend programs. The ETERNUSmgr frontend is installed in a Managing (or Management) Server to provide specific functions across one or more ETERNUS Disk storage systems. The ETERNUSmgr backend programs are part of the firmware within each of the ETERNUS Disk storage systems, which are used to display the status and perform settings and maintenance of each respective ETERNUS Disk storage system. This guide explains the installation and operation of the ETERNUSmgr frontend. The ETERNUSmgr frontend provides three specific optional functions: 1) a portal for access to each of several ETERNUS Disk storage systems, 2) customer e-mail notification of events, and

3) event and log recording and display. The ETERNUSmgr firmware on each

storage the customer has a central monitoring system, which fields SNMP Traps (For example ETER NUS SF Storage Cruiser), and does not need to directly receive e-mail notification of events, then the ETERNUSmgr frontend and the Management Server are not necessary. When service actions are necessary, direct logon to the specific Web browser, can be used to access the ETERNUSmgr backend programs. When events occur in an vices provide notice to the Fujitsu Global Support Center, which in turn can notify the customer.

1.1 ETERNUSmgr Outline

ETERNUSmgr can be installed on any server (hereafter referred to as "ETERNUSm gr server") with a Windows® 2000, Windows Server® 2003, Windows Server® 2003 R2, Solaris OS, HP- UX, AIX, or Linux operating system installed. The ETERNUSmgr server connects to the target devices through a Local Area Network (LAN). An administrator can determine the state of the target devices or perform maintenance proce- dures from any computer with a Web browser installed. Administrators can be notified by E-mail of the details of har dware failures detected by ETERNUSmgr. It is possible to disable mail notification in ETERNUSmgr. The illustration below shows a sample connection setup for the ETERNUSmgr.

■ Target Device Configuration Browser

This displays the hardware structure of the ta rget devices.

■ Target Device Monitoring and Failure Notification

Target device failure is monitored for. When a failure occurs, a history of the fault is saved as an HTML file (called an "alarm history file" from here on), and the administrator is notified by E-mail of the file's location and content. As the alarm history file is kept for a fixed period of time, the administrator can browse the failure his tory later, as time permits. The error monitoring function records the enclosure number where the error occurred. The error monitoring function can detect only the error location in terms of drive enclosures, controller enclosures, and battery enclosures, not detailed error loc ation such as hard disk, CPU, etc. To obtain detailed location once an error is detected, please use ETERNUSmgr's [Device Status Display] window (the window in which the entire device is displayed). Specifically, when an error has been detected, the red warn ing lamp for an enclos ure (Drive Enclosure, Controller Enclosure, Battery Enclosure) on the [Device Status Display] window is activated. For details on the [Device Status Display] window, see "ETERNUSm gr User Guide - Settings/Maintenance-". The extent to which a device can be monitored depends on its model number. Components that can be monitored for each type of target device are shown in the following list.

Chapter 2 Setup

This chapter explains how to setup ETERNUSmgr. Setup must be performed with administrator privilege.

2.1 Setup files

An ETERNUSmgr setup file is used to setup ETERNUSmgr to monitor a target device. The initial setup files are generated automatically in the installation directory when ETERNUSmgr is installed. See the "ETERNUSmgr Install Guide" of each OS for details of installing ETERNUSmgr. The parameters in each setup file must be adjusted to match the target device. After making the necessary settings, shutdown and re-start the ETERNUSmgr to enable the new settings. Refer to

"Chapter 3 Startup and Shutdown" (page 39) for details on starting up and shutting down the

system. It is recommended that you make a backup of the current setup files before making any changes. Keep this backup until you have verified that the new setup files operate normally.

You can edit only the setup file parameters described in this guide. Do not delete comments or blank lines from any setup files, and do not add anything other than parameters. Failure to follow these instructions may hinder performance and/or cause problems during future upgrades.

Setup file names must be in the following format:

STX-.INI

If the file name is other than as specified above, ETERNUSmgr will not be able to detect the file. The only place setup files should be saved is the installation directory. If a setup file is saved in another directory, ETERNUSmgr will not be able to find it.

The following setup file parameters must be set:

• Target Address (See → page 18)

• Target Type (See → page 20

• Target Flag (See → page 20

• Alarm History Files Directory (See → page 24

The setup file parameters required will vary according to the operating system and target device type. The following list shows parameter types in the setup file and setting items for each OS.

2 Edit the STXPOLL_1.INI file.

Vi editor is used here.

# vi /opt/FJSVgrmgr/STXPOLL_1.INI

When setting up multiple target devices, copy an existing setup file to make the setup easier. For details on how to do this, see "2.5

Monitoring Multiple Target Devices" (page 34).

2.3 Setting Items

This section explains the setting items (parameters) in the setup files.

2.3.1 Target Device Settings

This section explains the settings that allow ETERNUSmgr to monitor a target device.

End of procedure

■ Target Address

P2X0-0202-04ENZ0

The target address parameter is used to set the IP address or host name assigned to the target device. The target port number does not need to be changed (the default number is normally used). Target address cannot be omitted. ETERNUSmgr will not start if this parameter has not been set. Specify SVP IP address if the ETERNUS6000 is using SVP.

Chapter 2 Setup > 2.3 Setting Items

[Default value]

TARGET_PORT = 80 (TARGET_ADDR must be set. There is no default.)

[Parameter]

TARGET_ADDR (up to 64 characters) TARGET_PORT (0-65535)

[Example]

TARGET_ADDR=127.0.0.1 or T ARGET_ADDR=host-name.domain-name.com TARGET_PORT=80

• As the default port number is normally used, the target por t p arameter is

initially commented out.

• If the target address is changed, the target address must also be

changed in the top menu ("menu.htm").

■ Polling Interval

This parameter is used to control polling (periodically checking the status) of a target device. Set the polling interval in units of seconds within the range of 1 ~ 65535.

[Default value]

300

[Parameter]

POLLING_TIME (1-65535)

[Example]

POLLING_TIME=300

This specifies the Polling Interval (time between the start of one poll to the next). Due to network or device load the actual polling time may excee d the set time. In such cases, the start of the next polling time is delayed until the previous polling finishes:

When the actual polling finishes within the scheduled polling time:

Unless there is some special reason to change this parameter, it is recommended to keep the default. For this reason the parameter is initially commented out.

■ Target Type

Sets the target device type. Two parameters are provided: TARGET_TYPE and TARGET_FLAG These parameters cannot be omitted. ETERNUSmgr will not start if these parame ter have not been set.

[Parameter]

TARGET_TYPE (up to 256 characters)

[Example]

Any character string can be used to describe the target device type. When the type of target device is ETERNUS2000:

TARGET_TYPE=ETERNUS2000

• Note that even if the TARGET_TYPE and the TARGET_FLAG settings

are different, ETERNUSmgr operations are not affected.

• Although any character string can be set in TARGET_TYPE, it is

recommended to set one of the correct target device types ("ETERNUS DX400", ETERNUS DX8000", "ETERNUS2000", "ETERNUS4000", "ETERNUS8000", "ETERNUS3000", "ETERNUS6000", "GR710", "GR720", "GR730", "GR740", "GR820", or "GR840"). The character string in TARGET_TYPE is used when the administrator is notified by E- mail, and in the alarm history files.

■ Target Flag

Set to either 1, 2 or 4 according to the Target Type being monitored.

[Parameter]

TARGET_FLAG (1, 2 or 4) 1: ETERNUS3000, ETERNUS GR710, GR720, GR730

2: ETERNUS6000, ETERNUS GR740, GR820, GR840 4: ETERNUS DX400 series, ETERNUS DX8000 series, ETERNUS2000, ETERNUS4000, ETERNUS8000
