Check for Patches
After you have upgraded to release 8.5, 9.0, 9.5, 10.0, or 10.5, go to www.hp.com/support and check for
applicable patches required for your storage node. CMC 9.0 and higher shows available patches, and can
be used to download them from HP to the CMC system.
Configuring the P4000 Storage Systems
Communications
Use the following procedure to verify your SNMP settings. If you did not modify the SAN/iQ SNMP
settings when you installed/upgraded SAN/iQ 8.5, 9.0, 9.5, 10.0, or 10.5 then you should not need to make
any updates during the following procedure.
Under SAN/iQ 8.5 users configure the CMS trap host destination on each P4000 node. Under SAN/iQ 9.0
and higher users can configure different severity Alert levels to send from the Management Group. Under
Insight Remote Support, configure each Management Group to send v1 SNMP traps of Critical and
Warning levels in Standard message text length.
Note: Under SAN/iQ 9.0 and higher, users can set the CMS trap host destination on the P4000
Management Group using the command line createSNMPTrapTarget command instead of using the
CMC. The getGroupInfo command will show the current SNMP settings and SNMP trap host
destinations configured at the Management Group level.
Perform the following steps to verify and/or update your SNMP settings:
1. Open CMC.
2. If using SAN/iQ 8.5, verify that SNMP is enabled for each storage system. If using SAN/iQ 9.0 or
higher, verify that SNMP is enabled/configure in the Management Group.
Note: SAN/iQ ships by default with SNMP enabled for all storage systems and configured with
the “Default” Access Control list.
Note: SAN/iQ 9.0 and higher Management Groups configure the CMS SNMP trap host
destination once at the Management Group level. Under SAN/iQ 8.5 users configure the CMS
trap host destination on each P4000 node. Under SAN/iQ 9.0 and higher users can configure
different severity Alert levels to send from the Management Group. Under Insight Remote
Support, configure each Management Group to send v1 SNMP traps of Critical and Warning
levels in Standard message text length.
a. Select SNMP in the left menu tree and open the SNMP General tab.
b. Verify that the Agent Status is enabled.
c. Verify that the P4000 Storage System SNMP Community String is set to public or the same
value configured in HP SIM for SNMP discovery.
d. In the Access Control field, verify that either Default is listed or the CMS host IP address is
