HCSM (Hitachi Compute Systems Manager)

Hitachi Compute Systems Manager (HCSM) is software for managing the server chassis in a
large scale system. A system administrator can efficiently manage hardware resources in the
system, monitor operation, and control power consumption using HCSM.
Regardless whether HCSM is used, up to 10 system
consoles can be simultaneously connected to the
management module.
Notes on connection between HCSM
and a management module
Hitachi Compute Server Manager (HCSM) is connected to a management module
via Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer (HTTPS). Thus, you need
to enable HTTPS protocol. See Chapter 6 > System Web Console > Service
Settings > Service Settings List View > HTTP for details about checking and
changing HTTPS settings for a management module.
For HCSM settings, see "Managing Security" in "System Web Console", Chapter 6
for more details.
When the HCSM port number used for communication via
HTTPS is changed from the default number 443 to another,
set the same port number in the management module.
With firmware versions earlier than A0310, the port number
is set to 80 for HTTP protocol by default. Once the
firmware is updated to A0310 or later at fields, the port
number also needs to be changed from 80 to 443 for
HCSM (HTTPS).
Management by HCSM
HCSM has a feature for searching server chassis in the target system, which we will
see as Discovery. When interfacing a management module with HCSM, you need
not set HCSM information to the management module.
Perform Discovery with HCSM, search a server chassis, add it, and HCSM
information including its IP address and alert settings is automatically set to the
management module. HCSM information set to the management module can be
changed or removed using the System console and the System Web console. You
can interface a management module with up to four HCSMs.
