Contact your EMC representative for more information about obtaining the Navisphere CLI.
Distribution rights for the Navisphere CLI belong to EMC.
IMPORTANT: Before you discover your CLARiiON storage systems, you must have already
installed all required software components for your CLARiiON storage system, such as the
Navisphere Host Agent. Refer to the documentation for your storage system for more information.
In Navisphere Manager add one of the following to the privilege user section:
SYSTEM@name_of_my_management_server
SYSTEM@IP_of_my_management_server
where
• name_of_my_management_server is the DNS name of the computer running the
management server software
• IP_of_my_management_server is the IP address of the computer running the management
server software
When you use the management server to discover the CLARiiON storage system, provide the IP
address for the CLARiiON storage system and the user name and password used to log into
Navisphere.
Discovering Engenio Storage Systems
Keep in mind the following when discovering an Engenio storage system:
• Discover all controllers on an Engenio storage system by entering the IP address of each
controller.
• The management server must have the User Name field populated to discover the Engenio
storage system. If your Engenio storage system does not have a user name set, you must enter
something in the User Name field, even though the storage system has no user name.
• Discover both controllers for the Engenio storage system. Each controller has its own IP address.
When you discover from HP SIM (Discovery > Options) or HP SE (Discovery > Setup from
the SE Home page, see ”Accessing the Discovery Pages for HP SIM and HP SE” on page 19 if
needed), specify all the IP addresses for all the controllers (usually two). The management server
discovers these controllers as one single storage system.
• To obtain drive-related statistics, install a proxy host. Ensure the proxy host has at least one LUN
rendered by each controller of the array. See the topic, ”Obtaining Disk Drive Statistics from
Engenio Storage Systems” on page 144 for more information.
• A license key is required for each storage system and that the key is obtained from the Web site
specified on the Activation Card that shipped with your storage system.
• Engenio storage systems do not require a password for Get Details. If you want do not want to
use the management server for provisioning on Engenio storage systems, select the Do Not
Authenticate option. The management server will still monitor the Engenio storage system;
however, you will not be able to do provisioning tasks.
