5.5 Operation Monitoring
■ ETERNUS Web GUI
ETERNUS Web GUI is a program for settings and operation management that is installed in the ETERNUS DX
Disk storage system and accessed by using a web browser via http or https.
ETERNUS Web GUI has an easy-to-use design that makes intuitive operation possible.
The settings that are required for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system initial installation can be easily
performed by following the wizard and inputting the parameters for the displayed setting items.
■ ETERNUS CLI
ETERNUS CLI supports Telnet or SSH connections. The ETERNUS DX Disk storage system can be set and
monitored using commands and command scripts.
Most of the functions that can be executed using ETERNUS Web GUI can be executed.
■
ETERNUS SF
"ETERNUS SF" Storage Foundation Software can manage an "ETERNUS series" centered storage environment.
Since the complicated storage configuration designing and setting operations can be performed with an easy-
to-use GUI, a storage system can be installed easily without needing to have high level skills.
ETERNUS SF ensures stable operation by managing the entire storage system.
■ SMI-S
Storage systems can be managed collectively using the general storage management application that
supports Version 1.4 of Storage Management Initiative Specification (SMI-S). SMI-S is a storage management
interface standard developed and maintained by the Storage Network Industry Association (SNIA). SMI-S can
monitor the device status and change configurations such as RAID groups, volumes, and Advanced Copy (EC/
REC/SnapOPC+).
5.5.2

Event Notification

When an error occurs in the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, this function notifies the event information to
the administrator. The administrator can realize an error occurred without monitoring the screen all the time.
The methods to notify an event are e-mail, SNMP Trap, syslog, remote support, and host sense.
The notification methods and levels can be set as required.
• E-mail
When an event occurs, an e-mail is sent to the specified e-mail address.
• SNMP Trap
Using the SNMP agent function, management information is sent to the SNMP manager (monitoring
server). SNMP v1/v2c/v3 is supported.
• syslog
By registering the syslog destination server in the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, various events that are
detected by the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system are sent to the syslog server as event logs.
• Remote support
The errors that occur in the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system are notified to the remote support center.
Additional information (logs and system configuration information) for checking the error are also sent.
This shortens the time to collect information.
