Enterprise Virtual Array Configuration
Understanding the Different Server Types and
Software Applications
One or more Windows ProLiant servers will be required to host the necessary Insight Remote Support and
EVA monitoring software applications in your environment. The actual number of devices will depend on
the version of Command View EVA used to support your EVA.
l The Central Management Server (CMS) is always required for Insight Remote Support Advanced and
HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM). Command View EVA 8.0.1 and higher can be simultaneously
hosted on the CMS, eliminating the need for a separate SMS.
l A separate Storage Management Server (SMS) is required for all versions of Command View EVA 8.0
and earlier.
Caution: Command View EVA 8.0 and earlier cannot be hosted on the CMS. Command View EVA
8.0 and earlier require a separate SMS in addition to a CMS. Command View EVA 8.0 is installed as a
prerequisite for the installation of Command View EVA 8.0.1. Do not install Command View EVA 8.0
and earlier on the CMS. Do not install HP SIM, Insight Remote Support Advanced or WEBES on an
SMS.
The Central Management Server
HP Insight Remote Support Advanced is a plug-in to HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM). Both the
Insight Remote Support Advanced and HP SIM software applications are hosted on the Central
Management Server (CMS) and rely on additional software components to manage the customer
environment and submit configuration collection and event data to the HP Support Center for analysis and
response.
The procedure for installing and configuring Insight Remote Support Advanced on the CMS is detailed in
the HP Insight Remote Support Advanced Central Management Server Configuration Guide. The Insight
Remote Support Advanced documentation is available at the following URL:
http://www.hp.com/go/insightremoteadvanced-docs.
The Storage Management Server
Command View EVA 8.0.1 can be installed on the CMS instead of a separate SMS. However, all earlier
versions of Command View EVA are only supported on a Storage Management Server (SMS). Command
View EVA writes events to the Windows Application log on the SMS.
For simplicity, this chapter uses the term SMS unless it is necessary to highlight a difference between the
two types of storage management types.
The rest of this chapter is broken into larger sections depending on the model you choose:
