Settings for CIM/WBEM (SMI-S CIMOM)

Host that acquires performance information
This host is required when acquiring performance information of XP24000/XP20000 or
XP12000/XP10000/SVS200. You must install Device Manager agent version 5.9 or later on
this host.
HP recommends that you use the same computer for the management server and for the host
that acquires performance information. In this case, the OS for the host that acquires
performance information must be able to support both Device Manager server and the Device
Manager agent.
For example, if the OS for the management server is Windows XP, you cannot install the
Device Manager agent, so you cannot use this computer as the host that acquires performance
information.
Even if you use different computers for the management server and for the host that acquires
performance information, the OS for the host that acquires performance information must be
Windows or Linux. The host that acquires performance information cannot run HP-UX or AIX.
For details about the OSs (Windows and Linux) supported by the Device Manager agent, see
the HP StorageWorks XP Command View Advanced Edition software Device Manager agent
administrator guide.
HP recommends that you set the central management method of the Device Manager agent
installed on the host that acquires performance information. For details on how to set the
central management method, see the HP StorageWorks XP Command View Advanced Edition
software Device Manager agent administrator guide.
Storage subsystem
This is a storage subsystem whose performance information is to be acquired. For details on
the microcode versions that can use the performance information acquisition feature, see
section
1-4 .
The host that acquires performance information (the Device Manager agent) acquires the
information of XP24000/XP20000 and XP12000/XP10000/SVS200 by using the command
device within the storage subsystem, and then reports it to the Device Manager server.
The system configuration that is required to acquire performance information of a storage
subsystem differs depending on the storage subsystem model. For information on
XP24000/XP20000 or XP12000/XP10000/SVS200, see section
7-7-2 .
7-7-2 Settings required to acquire performance information
of XP24000/XP20000 or XP12000/XP10000/SVS200
This section describes the settings required to acquire performance information of
XP24000/XP20000 or XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.
7-7-2-1 Preparations in storage subsystems
Prepare a command device for each storage subsystem from which you want to acquire
performance information, and then assign the path to the host that acquires performance
information so that the host can recognize the command device.
7-7-2-2 Preparations in the host that acquires performance information
Configure the settings shown below for the host that acquires performance information:
To configure the settings:
1. Install the Device Manager agent.
To acquire performance information, you will need an XP RAID Manager library on the host. If
you install the Device Manager agent on a host, the XP RAID Manager library will be installed.
However, if an XP RAID Manager library is already installed on the host, it is not overwritten. In
this case, install an XP RAID Manager library that satisfies the following requirements:
