Can I Manage HSG Arrays on the SMA Alongside CommandView/EVA?

Alzhy — Fri, 09 Feb 2007 14:56:22 GMT

If so, how? Do I need to simply zone the SMA Window's server's HBAs so it can see the HSG80's controllers -- and just dicover the HSGs?

I already see an HSG80 Element Manager in my SMA - "Devices" but no discovered HSG nor have I attempted to discover them as I am unsure they're zoned..

Thanks!

Yes you can.

Yes, basically thats is the IDEA.

Enable Automanage, and the HSG should be diplayed in the HSG network.

Ivan,

Thanks a lot.

BTW, since we're licensed for the SMA.. and can see HSG Element Manager -- does it mean it's okay to use it? Is there not an activation license for this?

The HSG Element Manager is licensed with the SMA hardware/software combination.

Uwe or Ivan,

Do I need a CCL or presentation LUN from each of my HSG arrays presented to the SMA?

Thanks

Nelson

Yes, of course, but a CCL is presented at LUN address 0 by default if the HSG is configured with SCSI_VERSION = SCSI-3, which is quite standard these days.
