Storage Device List; Overview Of Audit Logs - Hitachi MK-96RD621-08 User Manual

Storage Device List

The Storage administrator is responsible for registering storage devices with
the primary SVP. This information is compiled into the storage device list,
which includes information such as device name, IP address or host name, and
device location. See Editing the Storage Device List for more details.
You can display the storage device list on your Web browser by accessing the
URL of the primary SVP which includes an IP address of a host name of the
primary SVP. If you want to specify a host name instead of IP address, you
need to register a host name. For details on registering a host name, see
Registering the Primary SVP Host Name.

Overview of Audit Logs

The Audit Log function allows you to record the access and configuration
changes made to your storage system. The audit log can be used to
investigate when an incorrect setup is performed or when a trouble occurs in
the storage system.
You can view the audit log by:
– Transferring the audit log to FTP servers
– Transferring the audit log to syslog servers
– Downloading the audit log to the Storage Navigator computer
You can download two files with different formats to the Storage Navigator
computer. The file that has the same format as the audit log transferred to
syslog servers is called syslog file. The file that has the same format as the
audit log transferred to FTP servers is called audit log file.
The following figure shows an overview of the audit log operations.
