Description
How can I configure my 3PAR array in Foglight for Storage Management?
-
Cause
The 3PAR array is now supported in Storage version 3.2 and later.

Resolution
Foglight for Storage Management collects information from HP 3PAR arrays by communicating with the embedded SMI-S provider integrated into the array's InForm OS.
The Requirements for HP 3PAR are:
1) OS version 3.1.2 is required.
2) You must enable the SMI-S provider, which is not enabled by default. Use the HP 3PAR CLI.
3) Foglight for Storage Management requires an SMI-S account with the Administrator role.
Enabling the 3PAR SMI-S Provider
1 Login to the 3PAR CLI using SSH.
2 Enter the 3PAR Array IP address.
3 Enter the user name configured on the array and the password.
4 Enter the command showcim to check if the SMI-S provider is already enabled.
5 Enter the command startcim to enable the SMI-S provider.
For futher details, refer to the 3PAR InForm OS Command Line Interface Reference.
