MSA Command Line Interface (MSA-CLI)

The MSA-CLI is built into the MSA controller firmware and can be used to
configure, manage, and monitor all aspects of the MSA1000, including hard drive
array configuration. The CLI is accessed through a host computer connected to the
customized RJ-45Z serial port on the front of the MSA1000.
All supported operating systems can access the CLI.

HP Systems Insight Manager (HP-SIM)

HP systems Insight Manager (HP-SIM) is a client/server application used to
remotely manage HP hardware in network environments. SIM reports hardware
fault conditions (both failure and pre-failure) and collects data for reporting and
graphing. SIM also provides base-level management of HP clients, printers, and
selected storage.
HP-SIM can be used to monitor the performance of several MSA1000 Controller
parameters. The displayed parameters include CPU usage, the total number of
read and write commands processed, and the average time to process a read or
write command. Also displayed for each logical drive are the total I/O count,
number of read and write requests, and number of sectors read or written. HP
recommends using HP-SIM to monitor the performance of your drive arrays.
The Windows, Linux, and NetWare operating systems can use HP-SIM.
