HP StorageWorks P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.1 CLI Reference Guide (TB581-96051, May 2011)

• Batch file
• Device Manager server log files
When the error code of the storage system is not one of the values listed above:
Perform the following procedure:
1. Execute the AddStorageArray command or RefreshStorageArrays command.
2. Execute the GetStorageArray command to check which command lines in the batch file
were applied to the storage system.
The command processing during batch functionality execution is not performed in the order
described in the batch file. All lines need to be checked to determine which command lines
in the batch file were applied.
3. Delete the command lines applied to the storage system from the batch file.
4. Execute the batch functionality again.
Managing mainframe hosts
Device Manager linked with P9000 mainframe agent can use the GUI to display the following
information recognized by a mainframe host:
• Mainframe volume information (VOLSER and DEVN)
• Logical DKC serial number of a storage system
To use the GUI to display information recognized by a mainframe host, you must set up the mainframe
host and Device Manager environments.
In the GUI, you cannot view mainframe hosts.
Setting up the mainframe host environment
The following procedure shows how to set up the mainframe host environment.
To set up the mainframe host environment:
1. Install P9000 mainframe agent on the mainframe host.
2. On the mainframe host, set up the P9000 mainframe agent environment.
When you specify the host name that P9000 mainframe agent will use for reporting to Device
Manager, do not specify the name of a host that is already being managed by Device Manager
(including external connection ports that are being managed by Device Manager as hosts). To
ensure that you do not specify such a host name, use one of the following methods:
• In the initialization parameter for setting up the P9000 mainframe agent environment, specify
the host name to be used to report to Device Manager. Note that DNS must be able to resolve
the host name you specify.
• If a host name that DNS can resolve is identical to a host name already managed by Device
Manager, specify the host identification name of the mainframe host in the initialization
parameter for setting up the P9000 mainframe agent environment.
• If neither of the above two methods avoids host name duplication, change the host name of
the relevant host managed by Device Manager.
• If none of the above three methods allows you to set a unique host name, specify any host
name in the initialization parameter for setting up the P9000 mainframe agent environment.
3. Start P9000 mainframe agent.
