Requirements for EMC CLARiiON CX Series Arrays (CLI)

Your environment must meet the following requirements:

•
NaviSphere is running on a different server than the Foglight Agent Manager. This server is referred to as the EMC Management host.
•
For supported NaviSphere CLI version, see Appendix: Supported Storage Devices Table .
•
Statistics logging is enabled on each array. See Verifying Statistics Logging is Enabled on EMC Arrays.
•
Foglight for Storage Management requires the following accounts:
•
An EMC Management Host user account to access the NaviSphere NaviSecCLI utility, with the following access privileges:
- On UNIX systems, SSH services with read and execute access to the binaries (sudo if the administrator changed the access privileges).
- On Windows systems, read and execute access to the executables. In addition, the following shares and services are required to access Navisphere:
     - ADMIN$, IPC$ as Shares
     - RPC service enabled
•
A Navisphere account with the Global privilege. This account is used by the NaviSecCLI commands to access the individual arrays. The Global privilege provides access to all CLARiiON arrays in the Navisphere domain, requiring the user to provide the IP for only a single Service Processer (SP) of an array in the domain.

Configuring Agents to Monitor EMC CLARiiON CX Series Arrays (CLI)

During this procedure, you configure the agent to use the CLI to collect from the array management host. For details, see Configuring Agents to Monitor Storage Devices.

EMC CLARiiON, VNX, or VMAX Storage Arrays (SMI-S)

To collect from EMC CLARiiON and VNX arrays, Foglight for Storage Management uses the EMC SMI-S Provider installed on a host machine. For EMC VMAX arrays, Foglight for Storage Management uses the EMC SMI-S Provider installed on EMC Solutions Enabler. The SMI-S Provider can be downloaded from the EMC Support page at https://support.emc.com/downloads.

Requirements for EMC CLARiiON or VNX Arrays (SMI-S)

Your environment must meet the following requirements:

•
For supported Solutions Enabler and SMI-S provider versions for each array model, see Appendix: Supported Storage Devices Table .
•
Statistics logging is enabled on each array. See Verifying Statistics Logging is Enabled on EMC Arrays.
•
For compatibility information with EMC Solutions Enabler, CLARiiON Navisphere, and VNX Unisphere releases, see the SMIS Provider Release Notes.
•
Foglight for Storage Management requires an SMI-S account with the Monitor role. For help setting up an Monitor account, see the SMIS Provider Release Notes.
* 
IMPORTANT: EMC has deprecated some storage systems with the 8.0.1 release of Solutions Enabler. For more information refer to https://support.emc.com/docu55547. An EMC support account is required. As a result, customers wishing to monitor any VNX array or any CLARiiON CX, CX3, CX4, AX, AX4 series array must use a 7.6.x release of Solutions Enabler.

 

* 
NOTE:  
•
In FIPS-compliant mode, you need to import the CA certificate or the self-signed certificate to the KeyStore of FglAM to use this option. For more information, see Managing certificates .
•
Storage agent only supports monitoring through IP address. Ensure that “Subject” or “Subject Alternative Name” field of the certificate includes the IP address of your device.
