Features Overview The SNC is the interface between storage and Open System Host interfaces and provides Fibre Channel to SCSI connectivity as well as the ability to manage the library and other devices within the storage network. One possible configuration is illustrated in Figure 1-1.
Page 24: Configuration Support
Configuration Support The SNC provides two Fibre Channel interfaces. The FC interfaces are configured with Giga Bit Interface Converter (GBIC) modules. In addition, the SNC has four Ultra2 SCSI interfaces. The Ultra2 interfaces are Low Voltage Differential (LVD). See Figure 1-2: Figure 1-2: Configuration Detail Address Mapping The SNC maps addresses across and between these different interfaces and preserves the...
Page 25: Access Security Capabilities
Therefore, multiple virtual private connections can be created on the same Storage Networking infrastructure. SFM is a Virtual Private connection or channel between a storage element and the user of that element in a Storage Area Network. Scalar Firewall Manager is a method of Access Security that manages the access between an Initiator (user, host, system, ..) to Target/...
Page 26: Data Mover Module
The Channel Zoning capability is always available to users of the SNC. Data Mover Module The SNC can move data directly between storage devices that are attached to it. This direct movement of data can be from disk to disk, disk to tape, tape to disk or tape to tape.

Page 31: Introduction To The Adic Management Console
Introduction to the ADIC Management Console The ADIC Management Console uses a combination of industry-standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) requests and a method or technology known as SCSI over TCP, which encapsulates SCSI commands and/or data in TCP packets. Client/Server Model Figure 1-4: Client Server Model The ADIC Management Console is part of a three-part client/server model.
Page 32: Client
TCP, as required. Specifically, the Java Management Application Programming Interface (JMAPI) is used where possible to provide an industry standard and transportable interface. All communication between the Clients and the Server is implemented using the Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI), a form of remote procedure call (RPC). The Server is written to be both transportable and efficient.
Page 33: Snmp Community Support
SFM manages access permission between any host attached to an SNC SAN connection and any storage element attached to the SNC. This includes storage devices attached to any SCSI Channel and storage devices attached to any other SAN Connection on the SNC.
Page 34: Host Registration Service
Host Registration Service The Host Registration Service is software that installs on the host from the CD-ROM or it can be downloaded from www.adic.com. It simplifies SFM configuration for the system administrator. It removes the burden of physically tracing each connection to correlate the HBA World Wide Name (WWN) with a specific host.
Page 35: Event Logging
Event Logging You can retrieve and view the SNC event logs in a table. Filtering based upon the significance of events simplifies fault isolation. For more information, see “Events” on page 65. Health Checks Instantaneous and periodic health checks allow monitoring of each SNC and the devices attached to it.
Page 36: Heartbeat

Page 108: Events And Traps
Events and Traps Events are recorded in the SNC event log. For each event, an assigned Viewing Level corresponds with the event log facility available to the Client application (all events are recorded in the SNC log regardless of the assigned level). A Trap Threshold is preset for each event so that when the number of instances of that event reaches the threshold, a trap will be sent.
Page 109: Health Check
While an SNC is being monitored, the Server application periodically attempts to communicate with it (every two minutes). A fault is reported to any interested Client if an SNC is no longer available. While a Client is connected to a Server, the Client periodically tests the connection to the Server to make sure it is still available.
Page 110: Health Check Level Control
Figure 3-75: Successful Health Check Health Check is enabled when the level is set to a value greater than 0. This can be set from the Client application or from the service terminal. Health Check Level Control The Health Check level may be set to the levels described below using the ADIC Management Console.
Page 111 1 — Basic Function When set to the “Basic Function” level, the SNC periodically scans the system resources to locate problems. Health Check status will be set if either of the following conditions is true: Temperature Sensors detect WARNING or ALARM status Power Supply sensors detect a change in status since the last report.
Page 112: Health Check Interval
Health Check Interval The Health Check interval controls how often the Health Check process runs. The interval may range from 1 to 65,535 minutes. The default setting is 60 minutes. See Figure 3-76. Figure 3-76: Health Check Interval Performance Impact of Health Checks At higher levels (3 or 4), the Health Check process may interfere with high demand I/O operations.
Page 113: Chapter 4: Scalar Firewall Manager
(an optional automatic Host Registration Service that provides periodic host status information is included). It has no interface dependencies and supports Fibre Channel, SCSI or any other SAN interface. It is also independent of the storage elements and requires no change in legacy or new storage devices.
Page 114: Host Registration
Any HBA (or Initiator) that is added to a SAN connection at a later time will only have access to the SNC Command and Control LUN. In this case, the system administrator must explicitly set access privileges to the desired storage element for each host connection.
Page 115: Installing Scalar Firewall Manager
It is important for the system administrator to know whether hosts are online or offline when configuring SFM access settings. A Host Registration Service is provided to simplify SFM configuration and it allows the system administrator to monitor host status. It removes the burden of physically tracing each connection to correlate the Fibre Channel HBA WWN with a specific host.
Page 116: Installation Instructions
“Installation Steps for an Existing SNC” on page 109. Installation Steps for a New SNC Note: This procedure assumes that the Scalar 100 and the SNC are finished booting, and that the ADIC Management Console software has already been installed.
