HP-UX Logical Volume Manager CIM Provider

Provider Overview

Description Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) is an industry wide initiative to unify the management of

system, networks, and applications across multiple and diverse vendor environments.

The Logical Volume Manager (LVM) provider is a WBEM instance provider used to get Logical Volume

Manager information of the LVM subsystem. The current implementation is for HP-UX only and the provider

is an Instance Provider (read-only properties).

Requirements The provider requires:

HP WBEM Services A.02.05 for HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, and HP-UX 11i v3.

Supported managed

resources

This provider can be used to obtain information from the Logical Volume Manager subsystem.

Supported OS

The provider is supported on HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, and HP-UX 11i v3.

Setting up this

provider

Installing this provider The LVM provider is available as an Independent Software Unit (ISU) on HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, and

HP-UX 11i v3.

This provider installs the following files/directories on the system:

• Schema MOF file: LVMProvider.mof (in /opt/lvmprovider/mof)

• Provider registration MOF file: LVMProviderR.mof (in /opt/lvmprovider/mof)

• Provider module executable:

libHPUXLVMProviderModule.1 (in /opt/lvmprovider/lib, and is the target of the

/opt/wbem/providers/lib/libHPUXLVMProviderModule.so (sl) symbolic link)

The HP-UX LVM Provider is registered to support the "root/cimv2" namespace as an instance provider. This

provider is installed by default as ISU on HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, and HP-UX 11i v3.

onfiguring this provider

This provider does not accept specific configuration adjustments beyond the standard WBEM support.

Using this provider

schema supported by

this provider

This provider supports the HPUX_LogicalVolume, HPUX_PhysicalVolume, HPUX_PhysicalVolumeGroup,

HPUX_VolumeGroup classes and the associations between them. Tables 1 through 9 describe the properties

and methods supported by the provider.

Table 1: HPUX_LogicalVolume properties Table 1 describes the properties of the HPUX_LogicalVolume class. It has three columns. The first column lists the property name (including type and units), the second is the property inheritance (indicating which class or super class defines the property), and the third describes the property description and its value. Each row describes a property.
PAGE 3
string LVStatus Local to HPUX_LogicalVolume HP-UX: Status of the logical volume. For example: "available/syncd" OR "unavailable" OR "available". LVStatus is obtained using the lvdisplay command, “LV Status” field. uint32 MirrorCopyNumber Local to HPUX_LogicalVolume HP-UX: Number of mirror copies for the logical volume. Obtained using the lvdisplay command, “Mirror copies” field.
PAGE 4
string DeviceID [Key] Inherited from CIM_LogicalDevice HP-UX: Name of the physical volume. For example, /dev/dsk/c0t0d0. Obtained from /dev/dsk directory. string SystemCreationClassName [Key] Inherited from CIM_LogicalDevice HP-UX: Name of the “CIM_UnitaryComputerSystem” class. string SystemName [Key] Inherited from CIM_LogicalDevice HP-UX: Fully qualified host name of the system uint16 Access Inherited from CIM_StorageExtent HP-UX: Returns 3 – “read/write”.
PAGE 5
If PVStatus is "unavailable" then “13” is added to OperationalStatus array. If PVStatus is none of the above then “0” is added to OperationalStatus PVStatus is obtained from pvdisplay command, “PV Status” field. uint32 PESize Local to HPUX_PhysicalVolume HP-UX: Size of the physical extent in Mega Bytes. PESize is obtained using pvdisplay command, “PE Size” field. string PVStatus Local to HPUX_PhysicalVolume HP-UX: Status of the physical volume. For example, "unavailable" OR "available".
PAGE 6
command, “VG Write Access” field. uint32 Allocated Local to HPUX_VolumeGroup HP-UX: Allocated space in the volume group in number of physical extents. Obtained using the vgdisplay command, “Alloc PE” field. uint32 Capacity Local to HPUX_VolumeGroup HP-UX: Capacity of the whole volume group in number of physical extents. Obtained using the vgdisplay command, “Total PE” field. string Caption Inherited from CIM_ManagedElement HP-UX: The Pool ID of the volume group.
PAGE 7
uint32 PESize Local to HPUX_VolumeGroup HP-UX: Size of the fundamental physical extent in Mbytes uint32 PESizeBytes Local to HPUX_VolumeGroup HP-UX: Size of the fundamental physical extent in bytes. Obtained using the vgdisplay command, “PE Size” field. uint64 RemainingManagedSpace Inherited from CIM_StoragePool HP-UX: Remaining amount of raw storage (in bytes) from the TotalManagedSpace of this storagePool.

and value. Each row describes a property. Note: while some properties in the table are marked with the “Write” qualifier (based on their designation in the DMTF CIM schema), all properties are in fact read-only for this version of the HP-UX LVM Provider. Property Name Property Inheritance Property Description (and value) HPUX_VolumeGroup REF Antecedent [key] Local to HPUX_PVGInVG HP-UX: Has the lower level StorageExtent.
