interface for access across the LAN. The ABM is not capable of hosting SMI-S in the array, so SMI-S is
required to be hosted elsewhere in the LAN to serve as a proxy connection to the array.
The Command View EVA installation kit allows for SMI-S to be installed independently on a designated
server. SMI-S can be installed on the Insight Remote Support Advanced CMS or another supported server
in the LAN. The procedures regarding port conflict explained earlier in this chapter are pertinent to
configuring SMI-S on the CMS, as HP SIM will need to connect to the array through the SMI-S assigned
port.
1. SMI-S includes a utility called discoverer.bat used to configure the connection to the array ABM.
This allows the SMI-S to pass connection requests to the array using the IP address and credentials
for the target ABM. This procedure is invoked by running the following file:
C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\SMI-S\EVAProvider\bin\discoverer.bat
This will open a command window:
Figure 15.10. SMI-S ABM Configuration
Note: The first line in the preceding example defines http://localhost:5988 as the default
path for SMI-S. This http port may have been changed if operating on the CMS as described
above in the Port Setting information. This is the http port. The second and third line requires the
credentials for the account set up for HP Storage Group access. When these items are entered
the menu is displayed.
2. Enter 1 to add a CV IP.
3. Enter the IP address and the credentials for Command View EVA on the ABM.
4. Select 3 to view a list of the CV IP addresses.
