Everything seems to be collecting from the EMC SMIs provider, but not all my arrays are being shown in vFoglight Storage 2.0.
vFoglight Storage will not show an array if the array is not configured to collect statics. The Array can be configured in the SMIS provider, but the Array also needs to be configured to collect statics.
To verify this is the problem,
1) Log into the server with the SMIs provider installed.
2) Run the TestSMIProvider.
3) When you reach the point where you can input SMI provider commands, enter:
(localhost:5988) ? ei
Class: cim_statisticsservice
4) In the output search for
a) “EnabledState” with a value of 3.
b) “started” with a value of false.
If you see these lines you need to configure your array for collections.
Notes:
These are the lines in the output that indicate the array is not configured for collection.
