Installing and Configuring HSG Agent
StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC) enables real-time configuration of the
storage environment and permits the user to monitor and configure the storage
connected to the HSG80 controller.
The following information is included in this chapter:
• “Why Use StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC)?,” page 4–1
• “Installation and Configuration Overview,” page 4–2
• “About the Network Connection for the Agent,” page 4–3
• “Before Installing the Agent,” page 4–5
• “Installing and Configuring the Agent,” page 4–5
• “Reconfiguring the Agent,” page 4–10
• “Removing the Agent,” page 4–13
Refer to Chapter 5 for a description of how to configure a subsystem that uses Fibre
Channel fabric topology.
Why Use StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC)?
StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC) enables you to monitor and configure the
storage connected to the HSG80 controller. SWCC consists of Client and Agent.
• The client provides pager notification and lets you manage your virtual disks. The
client runs on Windows 2000 with Service Pack 2 and 3 and Windows NT 4.0
with Service Pack 6A or above.
• The agent obtains the status of the storage connected to the controller. It also
passes the status of the devices connected to the controller to other computers and
provides email notification and error logging.
