Loading the HSV MIB on the CMS for EVA
Procedure 24-4 Loading the HSV MIB on the CMS for EVA
1. On a Windows operating system, go to a command prompt.
2. Navigate to \Program Files\HP\System Insight manager\mibs directory.
3. Run mxmib -a cpqhsv110v3.cfg.
Discovery
To discover an XP P9500 array, you can either discover it with a CVAE server or discover it with
embedded SMI-s. Do not use both methods of discovery together because there are chances for
Data collection and WBEM subscriptions to fail.
The HP SIM discovery process for systems running Command View includes the following:
• CV XP on port 80 (http)
• CV VA/SDM on port 4096 (http)
• CV TL on port 4095 (http)
• Discovery of Command View EVA is encapsulated within the discovery of the HP StorageWorks
Storage Management Appliance on ports 2301 or 2381
HP SIM must be permitted to access the web server.
NOTE: To access the links to Command View, select Tools→System Information→System
Page→Links.
To configure Command View and SDM:
Procedure 24-5 Configuring Command VIEW and SDM
1. Verify that the HP SIM CMS is within a secure IP range in the Command View server
configuration.
• Host based CMS IP address included in .../sanmgr/hostagent/config/
access.dat.
• Storage Area Manager management server (if applicable) CMS station IP address
included in /sanmgr/managementserver/config/authorizedClients.dat.
2. Run discovery to discover or re-identify the Command View systems.
3. When discovery is complete, you can group systems in HP SIM and launch Command View
from the System Page.
To load the EVA MIB, enter mxmib -a cpqhsv110v3.cfg.
NOTE: Loading the MIB could take several minutes to complete.
Configuring HP SIM with storage systems
For optimal interaction between HP SIM and storage systems, complete the following procedures.
Subscribe to WBEM indication events
If a storage systems SMI-S provider supports WBEM indication events and you want to view WBEM
indication events on the event table view page, you must subscribe to WBEM events for the storage
system.
Viewing storage system collections
HP SIM enables you to view storage system information for collections and individual storage
systems.
