Step 5: Setting System Information; Step 6: Configuring Event Notification - HP 2000i Reference Manual

• File Transfer Protocol (FTP). A secondary interface for installing firmware updates, downloading logs,
and installing a license.
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Used for remote monitoring of the system through your
network.
• Service Interface. Used for technical support only.
• Service Debug. Used for technical support only.
In-band management interfaces operate through the data path and can slightly reduce I/O performance.
The in-band options are:
• In-band CAPI Capability. Used for in-band management of the system from custom, host-based
management applications written using the Configuration Application Programming Interface (CAPI).
• In-band SES Capability. Used for in-band monitoring of system status based on SCSI Enclosure Services
(SES) data.
If a service is disabled, it continues to run but cannot be accessed. To allow users to access WBI, CLI, or
FTP, see About user accounts
To change management interface settings
Enable the options that you want to use to manage the storage system, and disable the others.

Step 5: Setting system information

Enter a name, contact person, location, and description for the system. The system name is shown in the
browser title bar or tab. All four values are recorded in system debug logs for reference by service
personnel. Click Next to continue.

Step 6: Configuring event notification

Configure up to four email addresses and three SNMP trap hosts to receive notifications of system events.
1. In the Email Configuration section, set the options:
• Notification Level. Select the minimum severity for which the system should send notifications:
Critical (only); Warning (and Critical); Informational (all). The default is none, which disables email
notification.
• SMTP Server address. The IP address of the SMTP mail server to use for the email messages. If the
mail server is not on the local network, make sure that the gateway IP address was set in the
network configuration step.
• Sender Name. The sender name that, with the domain name, forms the "from" address for remote
notification. Because this name is used as part of an email address, do not include spaces. If no
sender name is set, a default name is created.
• Sender Domain. The domain name that, with the sender name, forms the "from" address for remote
notification. Because this name is used as part of an email address, do not include spaces. If no
domain name is set here, the default domain value is used. If the domain name is not valid, some
email servers will not process the mail.
• Email Address fields. Up to four email addresses that the system should send notifications to. Email
addresses must use the format user-name@domain-name.
2. In the SNMP Configuration section, set the options:
• Notification Level. Select the minimum severity for which the system should send notifications:
Critical (only); Warning (and Critical); Informational (all). The default is none, which disables
SNMP notification.
• Read Community. The SNMP read password for your network. The value is case sensitive. The
default is
• Write Community. The SNMP write password for your network. The value is case sensitive. The
default is
• Trap Host Address fields. IP addresses of up to three host systems that are configured to receive
SNMP traps.
