Chapter 3. NovaScale Master Server Add-ons Description
17
Notes:
• This category is based on the GAMTT management product from LSI. This tool and
especially its SNMP interface is a requirement for the following GAMTTraid monitoring
services. Check that this tool works on the targeted OS, if you want to monitor with it
in NOVASCALE Master.
• The previous ” MegaRAID” category (NOVASCALE Master release 4.0) is based on
PowerConsolePlus management product from LSI. These two management products are
functionally redundant but not compatible. So you need to replace the ”MegaRAID”
category and its services by ”GAMTTraid” category and services, if you replace
PowerConsolePlus by GAMTT.
3.1.1.2 GAMTTraid Category
Status For NovaScale and Express5800 hosts with an LSI (or Mylex) SCSI
RAID card managed by GAMTT (or GAM) management tool. This
service checks the Host RAID status reported by the associated GAMTT
SNMP agent.
Alerts For NovaScale and Express5800 hosts. When an alert is sent from the
GAMTT SNMP agent, it is processed by the NovaScale Master server.
Note: The mlxraid.mib mib is integrated in the NovaScale Master
application.
Note:
Do not forget to configure the agent to send SNMP traps to the NovaScale Master server by
adding the NovaScale Master server host address to the SNMP managers list of this agent.
