11 . 1 Overview of XP Remote Web Console Operations XP12000/XP10000/SVS200 Array Web Server and Web Client The XP Remote Web Console consists of a group of Java applet programs that help you manage your arrays. The XP Remote Web Console Java applet programs run in a web browser to provide a user-friendly interface for the array's web client functions. The service processor (SVP) is the computer inside the array that uses Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to function as a web server. The SVP is also used by HP technical support to perform maintenance. The XP Remote Web Console client functions as a web client. Each time you log on to the XP Remote Web Console client and connect to the SVP, a Java applet program is downloaded from the SVP to the client. This document describes and provides instructions for using the licensed XP Remote Web Console software. The XP Remote Web Console software communicates directly with the arrays, using a local-area network (LAN) to obtain configuration and status information and send user-requested commands to the arrays. The XP Remote Web Console software displays detailed array information and allows you to configure and perform operations on the arrays. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship between the XP Remote Web Console client(s) and the SVP. Figure 1 Sample XP Remote Web Console and SVP Configuration XP Remote Web Console User Guide 11

Please see the corresponding user guides for the licensed software products you would like more information about. For further information on array features and functions, contact HP technical support. HP Array Features The arrays offer the following consolidated features to implement more efficient storage management systems in a large-scale storage area network (SAN) environment: Improved capacity and scalability. The arrays support up to 65,280 logical device (LDEV) addresses per array (mainframe), and can provide up to 138 TB of storage capacity. For open systems, 16,384 logical device addresses per array are supported. Continuous data availability. The arrays employ Hierarchical Star Network (Hi-Star) architecture to improve total performance of internal data transfer. Hi-Star architecture uses high-speed crossbar 12 Overview of XP Remote Web Console Operations

13 switches among processors on channel adapter boards, processors on disk adapter boards, and cache memory. The arrays also provide up to 128 Fibre Channel interface paths or 32 serial-interface paths, and enables simultaneous data transfer through each path. Connectivity for SAN infrastructure. The arrays can be configured for all-mainframe, all-open, or multiplatform operations. The arrays support Fibre Channel ports and provides a variety of feature options to meet SAN requirements. For further information about the arrays, contact HP technical support. User Accounts for XP Remote Web Console To use XP Remote Web Console, you need a user account. The user account for the XP Remote Web Console contains the following information: User ID User type Password Operation authority XP Remote Web Console provides a default account with the user ID and password of administrator. By default, the operation authority for all XP Remote Web Console features and product options is given to this user account. Also, the user account with the user ID of administrator cannot be deleted. You can register up to 500 user accounts including the user account with the user ID of administrator for XP Remote Web Console. When you create a user account, you need to specify the user ID, user type, and password. An operation authority can also be specified for each registered user account. To register a user account or to set an operation authority, use the Account panel. For further information on registering the user account and setting the operation authority for XP Remote Web Console, see Setting User Accounts (Account Pane) on page 85. The following sections describe the user type and operation authority. User Types There are two types of XP Remote Web Console users: Storage administrator Storage partition administrator You can determine the user type when you register the user account. The storage administrator and the storage partition administrator roles are described below. Storage administrator: A storage administrator operates the entire array. Only storage administrators can perform Control Panel and audit log-related operations in the XP Remote Web Console. The user account that is set by default in XP Remote Web Console with the user ID of administrator is a member of the Storage administrator group. Storage partition administrator: A storage partition administrator can operate an SLPR (Storage Management Logical Partition) allocated in XP Remote Web Console. A storage partition administrator cannot perform Control Panel and audit log-related operations in XP Remote Web Console. For additional information on an SLPR, see the HP StorageWorks XP Disk/Cache Partition user guide. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 13

14 A storage partition administrator can use only a portion of the licensed product options. For details on the product options that a storage partition administrator can use, see Allocating Licensed Capacity among Storage Logical Partitions. Operation Authority If you set the user ID and password when you register a user account, you can specify various types of operation authorities for registered user accounts. In XP Remote Web Console, the operation authority is also referred to as role. The parameters for the operation authorities that can be set for each user account are as follows. Account Administrator Role (user account operation authority): The account administrator role provides the authority to operate the Account panel that can used to manage XP Remote Web Console user accounts. All users can change their own passwords and view the details on their own accounts. Only users in the account administrator role can change the password or settings of another user's account. You cannot change the account administrator role settings for the default account that has the user ID of administrator. For each user account, you can specify the authority of the account administrator role from one of the following three types: Modify: If you have this authority, you can add and delete all user accounts (except for the user ID administrator) and change their settings. For the user account of user ID administrator, you can change the password and the operation authority; however, you cannot change the account administrator's role. The operation authority Modify has been set for the user account with the user ID of administrator. View: If you have this authority, you can view the operation authority of all user accounts. You cannot add, change, or delete any user accounts. However, you can change your own password. Disable: You cannot view or change the settings of other user accounts. However, you can change your password and view the operation authorities for your user account. Audit Log Administrator Role : The audit log administrator role is the authority to perform the auditlog and the syslog-related operations. You can set the audit log administrator role for the user account with the user type of storage administrator. For further information on audit log files, see Downloading the Audit Log File on page 101. For details regarding syslog-related operations, see Checking the Audit Log by Using the Syslog Server (Syslog Pane) on page 103. For each user account, you can specify one of the following parameters for the audit log administrator: Modify: If you have this authority, you can download an audit log file by using the button for audit log file download. You can also set the syslog server and download the syslog information file by using the Syslog panel. The operation authority "Modify" has been set for the user account of user ID administrator. View: If you have this authority, you can download an audit log file by using the button for audit log file download. You can also view the Syslog panel, but you cannot perform the operation using the Syslog panel. Disable: You have no operation authority for the audit log. You cannot use the audit log file download button and the Syslog panel. Storage administrator role (storage operation authority): The storage administrator role provides the authority to perform operations involving product options and the Set Env. panel. For each user account, you can specify one of the following parameters for the storage administrator: 14 Overview of XP Remote Web Console Operations

15 Enable: You have authority to perform operations for product options and the Set Env. panel. Only user accounts for which the storage administrator role authority is set to Enable can be used to set the details on the operation authority for each product option. The operation authority Enable has been set for the user account of user ID user. Also for the user account with the user ID of user, the Modify authority is set for the operations of all product options. Disable: You do not have authority to perform operations for product options or operations involving the Set Env. panel. For the operation authority for each function, the Modify authority might be set. However, if Disable is set for the authority of the storage administrator role, the operation authority for each function also will be disabled. Operation authority for each function: You can set the operation authority for XP Remote Web Console for functions involving product options. To set the operation authority for functions available for each user account, set Enable for the authority of the storage administrator role. For each user account, you can specify one of the following parameters for the operation authority: Modify: You can perform the operations by using each function. View: You can view the panel for each function. However, you cannot perform the operation. Important Terms and Concepts XP Remote Web Console users should be familiar with the following terms and concepts: Disk controller frame. The arrays have one disk controller frame that controls all data access and storage operations. Mainframe environments provide up to 255 logical control unit (CU) images and support , E, 2105-F20, and 2107 controller emulation types. Open systems provide up to 64 CU images. The and 2105-E20 controller emulation types are not supported. Disk array frame. The disk array frame for the XP arrays contains the storage components (hard disk drive arrays). Parity group. A parity group (also called an array group) is a set of hard disk drives that are treated as one group. For example, a RAID-5 3D+1P parity group consists of four disk drives (3 data and 1 parity). A parity group contains both user data and parity information. The parity information is used to automatically reconstruct the user data if one of the disk drives in the parity group becomes unavailable. LU (logical unit). An LDEV used by open-system hosts is called an LU. The arrays support a maximum of 1024 LU paths per Fibre Channel port. An open-system LU on a Fibre Channel interface can be mapped to one or more LDEVs. LDEV (logical device). The mainframe systems support a maximum of 65,280 LDEVs. An LDEV used by mainframe hosts can be called a device, a logical volume image (LVI), or a volume. For open system volumes, the XP12000/XP10000 disk arrays support a maximum of only 16,384 LDEVs. An LDEV used by open-system hosts can be called a device (for example, SCSI disk device or raw device) or a logical unit (LU or LUN). IMPORTANT: This guide contains information about internal disks or LDEVs in an array. Unlike the XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays, the SVS200 does not have internal disks. Therefore, information about internal disks or LDEVs in an array does not apply to the SVS200. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 15

16 Java applet program. The XP Remote Web Console is provided as a Java applet program. When an XP Remote Web Console user accesses and logs on to the desired SVP, the Java applet is downloaded from the SVP (web server) to the XP Remote Web Console client. The Java applet program runs in a web browser on the XP Remote Web Console client. RMI (remote method invocation). RMI is a remote procedure call that allows Java objects stored in the network to be run remotely. In the XP Remote Web Console network environment, the XP Remote Web Console downloads Java objects from the SVP. CU (control unit). The arrays support a maximum of 255 logical CU images for mainframe systems and 64 logical CU images for open systems. These images are numbered sequentially from 0-FE. Each CU image controls up to 256 LDEVs. LDEVs within the arrays are accessed by a combination of CU image number and device number (00-FF). Table 1 shows an example of the device numbers for each CU image. Table 1 Device Numbers for Each CU (Mainframe Only) CU Number Possible Device Numbers CU Number Possible Device Numbers CU Number Possible Device Numbers CU Number Possible Device Numbers 0 0:00 to 0:FF 10 10:00 to 10:FF 20 20:00 to 20:FF 30 30:00 to 30:FF 1 1:00 to 1:FF 11 11:00 to 11:FF 21 21:00 to 21:FF 31 31:00 to 31:FF 2 2:00 to 2:FF 12 12:00 to 12:FF 22 22:00 to 22:FF 32 32:00 to 32:FF 3 3:00 to 3:FF 13 13:00 to 13:FF 23 23:00 to 23:FF 33 33:00 to 33:FF 4 4:00 to 4:FF 14 14:00 to 14:FF 24 24:00 to 24:FF 34 34:00 to 34:FF 5 5:00 to 5:FF 15 15:00 to 15:FF 25 25:00 to 25:FF 35 35:00 to 35:FF 6 6:00 to 6:FF 16 16:00 to 16:FF 26 26:00 to 26:FF 36 36:00 to 36:FF 7 7:00 to 7:FF 17 17:00 to 17:FF 27 27:00 to 27:FF 37 37:00 to 37:FF 8 8:00 to 8:FF 18 18:00 to 18:FF 28 28:00 to 28:FF 38 38:00 to 38:FF 9 9:00 to 9:FF 19 19:00 to 19:FF 29 29:00 to 29:FF 39 39:00 to 39:FF A A:00 to A:FF 1A 1A:00 to 1A:FF 2A 2A:00 to 2A:FF 3A 3A:00 to 3A:FF B B:00 to B:FF 1B 1B:00 to 1B:FF 2B 2B:00 to 2B:FF 3B 3B:00 to 3B:FF C C:00 to C:FF 1C 1C:00 to 1C:FF 2C 2C:00 to 2C:FF 3C 3C:00 to 3C:FF D D:00 to D:FF 1D 1D:00 to 1D:FF 2D 2D:00 to 2D:FF 3D 3D:00 to 3D:FF E E:00 to E:FF 1E 1E:00 to 1E:FF 2E 2E:00 to 2E:FF 3E 3E:00 to 3E:FF F F:00 to F:FF 1F 1F:00 to 1F:FF 2F 2F:00 to 2F:FF 3F 3F:00 to 3F:FF CU group. For mainframe system volumes, the arrays support a maximum of 65,280 LDEVs, and each CU controls up to 256 LDEVs. The CUs are controlled as a group of 64. This group is called a CU group. Up to 16,384 LDEVs belong to each CU group. CU groups are numbered from 0 to 3. Table 2 lists the CU groups, terms displayed for the CU groups on the XP Remote Web Console main panel, and the CU numbers and LDEV numbers for each CU group. 16 Overview of XP Remote Web Console Operations

17 For open system volumes, the arrays support a maximum of only 16,384 LDEVs. This means that CU group 0 is the only available CU group for open system volumes. The CU number FF is reserved for RAID Manager operations. Therefore, the CU number that can be used for XP Remote Web Console operations is up to FE. This means that 16,128 LDEVs belong to CU group 3. Table 2 CU Numbers and LDEV Numbers for Each CU Group (Mainframe Only) CU Group Term Displayed on the XP Remote Web Console main pane Range of CU Numbers for each CU Group Range of LDEV Numbers for each CU Group CU group 0 CU00-3F 00-3F 00:00-3F:FF CU group 1 CU40-7F 40-7F 40:00-7F:FF CU group 2 CU80 - BF 80 - BF 80:00 - BF:FF CU group 3 CUC0 - FE C0 - FE C0:00 - FE:FF At the beginning of XP Remote Web Console operations, you need to select a CU group (see Figure 46). After you have selected a CU group, you can only perform operations on the LDEVs for the selected CU group. You are not allowed to perform operations across multiple CU groups. Operations for some of the XP Remote Web Console product options can be performed for all CU groups, however, the operation of other product options is limited to CU group 0. All CU groups are available for the following product options: XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software XP Auto LUN Software XP Cache LUN Software Hitachi Parallel Access Volumes (HPAV) XP Disk/Cache Partition Software Software Product Matrix Table 3 provides a description of many of the XP software products (also referred to in this user guide as product options) available through XP Remote Web Console.

21 2 Installation Requirements and Procedures Prerequisites Prerequisites for installing this product include: Reading through this user guide Installing the HP StorageWorks disk array(s) Knowledge of HP StorageWorks XP disk arrays and storage systems System Requirements The XP Remote Web Console Java applet program is downloaded from the SVP to the XP Remote Web Console client. The applet runs on the web browser of the XP Remote Web Console and communicates with the attached arrays via the TCP/IP network. To connect to more than one array, you must log on to the SVP of each of the desired arrays and use individual web client Java TM applet programs on separate web browser windows. The XP Remote Web Console software has the following system requirements: XP Remote Web Console client(s). Table 4 and Table 5 list the system requirements for the XP Remote Web Console system, including the supported browsers and Java Runtime Environment version(s) for each operating system. Use JRE that is provided by Sun Microsystems Inc. A web browser is required on the XP Remote Web Console client. Up to 32 XP Remote Web Console users can concurrently access the same arrays. A storage administrator can see who is currently using the XP Remote Web Console by checking the logon access log. When you log on with a user account where the Audit Log Administrator role is set to Modify or View, you can check the logon access log for XP Remote Web Console using the audit log file (see Checking the Audit Log by Using the Syslog Server (Syslog Pane) on page 103 or Downloading the Log and Configuration Files on page 112). To change the array's settings, you will need to be in Modify mode. When a storage administrator is in Modify mode, other users can only view array information in View mode. When a storage partition administrator is in Modify mode, other users in the allocated SLPR can only view array information in View mode. Only one user can be in Modify mode for each SLPR.

Setting up the XP Remote Web Console Configuring Your Web Browser Your HP account support representative will install the SVP software and LAN cabling. You will need to document the serial numbers and IP addresses or host names of each array because these numbers are required for XP Remote Web Console operations. It is important to verify that you have a unique IP address or host name for each SVP, to avoid any conflicts. If a conflict occurs, obtain a unique IP address or host name for the desired array. You can also contact your HP account support representative for assistance in assigning IP addresses or host names. 24 Installation Requirements and Procedures

25 To connect to the desired SVP and use the XP Remote Web Console Java applet program, a web browser is required on the XP Remote Web Console client. To configure your web browser: Make sure that the XP Remote Web Console is connected to a network via a LAN. CAUTION: Using a modem for network connections is not supported. Make sure that cookies are enabled on the browser. Install Java Runtime Environment. See Table 4 for the appropriate version for your operating system. CAUTION: Do not access any unreliable websites from your XP Remote Web Console client. Configuring XP Remote Web Console over a Firewall To enable the XP Remote Web Console to communicate with the array's SVP over a firewall, you must use the following TCP/IP port numbers: HTTP: 161* SNMP Trap: (for receiving traps): 162* RMI: 1099 RMI: (this is a port used by XP Remote Web Console for communication) Spare (for extension): (this is a port used by XP Remote Web Console for communication) *Required if you use the XP Remote Web Console computer as an SNMP manager. When you connect the XP Remote Web Console and the SVP over a firewall, make sure to connect them through these TCP/IP ports to configure the firewall. Configuring the Java Plug-In Because XP Remote Web Console deals with a large amount of data, you need to increase the memory size for the Java Plug-in execution. This section describes the procedures to increase the memory size for the Java Plug-in execution for JRE 1.4 and JRE 5.0. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 25

33 Using the XP Remote Web Console XP Remote Web Console Conventions If you specify different settings for the values on most of the XP Remote Web Console panels, the text color of the values changes to blue or the icon changes; however, the new settings will not take effect until you click Apply. Table 6 describes the text colors and font types displayed on the XP Remote Web Console panels. You can create and store up to 1,000 settings or operations before actually applying them to the array. To avoid a possible error, do not apply more than 1,000 settings at a time. The layout of an XP Remote Web Console panel is reset when you click Apply, Cancel, Refresh ( ), All Refresh ( ), or when you switch tabs. Clicking All Refresh ( ) also updates the information on the SVP and the host. IMPORTANT: Whenever an update is in process, other users will be locked out of the XP Remote Web Console panels and maintenance and SVP operations. Because the update can take some time, you should not use the All Refresh button unless you need to recover from an error. If you see a difference between the configuration information displayed in XP Remote Web Console and the actual configuration information that is recognized from the host, the configuration information displayed on the XP Remote Web Console may be updated by selecting All Refresh ( ). When the microcode is being updated on the SVP, you must exit and restart all web browsers on the XP Remote Web Console. If an XP Remote Web Console user is in Modify mode and applying settings, you will not be able to log on to XP Remote Web Console until after those settings have been applied. A wait of longer than five minutes indicates an abnormal end, in which case you need to exit and restart the browser. When an internal process is being executed on the SVP (for example, a configuration change, option check, or an operational information acquisition), XP Remote Web Console processing might be temporarily delayed. If you reset the time of the clock on XP Remote Web Console, clear the existing temporary Internet files of your web browser before logging on to the XP Remote Web Console. When the XP Business Copy Software or ShadowImage for z/os quick-restore operation is being performed, an XP Remote Web Console panel may display old information (status before the quick restore operation) on logical volume (LDEV) configurations. In this case, wait until the quick restore operation completes, and then click Refresh ( ) or All Refresh ( ) to update the XP Remote Web Console panel. IMPORTANT: Whenever an update is in process, other users will be locked out of the XP Remote Web Console panels and maintenance and SVP operations. Because the update can take some time, you should not use the All Refresh button unless you need to recover from an error. If you request a change to the array's configuration while another change is being made, an error message is displayed. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 33

34 If the error occurs while you are logging on or after you click Apply to implement your changes, wait for a few minutes, and then retry the operation. If the error occurs while you are either clicking a button to launch an option, switching between Modify and View mode, or switching tabs, wait for a few minutes, and then click Refresh ( ) and retry the operation. If you remain in Modify mode for a certain period of time without making any changes (the default is 30 minutes), the array releases the Modify mode setting, and you are returned to View mode (see Setting the XP Remote Web Console Environment Parameters on page 108). Once you are returned to View mode, if you attempt to click Apply, Refresh ( ), All Refresh ( ), or the mode changing buttons ( or ), an error will occur. IMPORTANT: Do not change the screen resolution while you are displaying an XP Remote Web Console panel or you may have unexpected results. Because some screen savers change the screen resolution automatically, you should not use them while using XP Remote Web Console. The term Java Applet Window may appear at the bottom of a screen item (such as a dialog box, popup menu, combo box, or tool tip) on an XP Remote Web Console panel. This is not an error. Table 6 Text Color and Font Type Displayed on Panes Color and Font Type Blue Bold Italic Red Italic Green Bold Description Indicates that you have changed settings on the panel, but the changes are not yet implemented. To implement the changes, click Apply. Used for XP Auto LUN Software Used for the LUN Manager copy function in XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software Do not change the settings of web browser while you are using the XP Remote Web Console. If you change the settings, you may possibly have unexpected results. If you have had the unexpected results, close the web browser, and then restart the XP Remote Web Console. If you use Windows Internet Explorer as the web browser for the XP Remote Web Console, and change the settings of Tools and Folder Options of Explorer while you are using the XP Remote Web Console, you may possibly have unexpected results. If you have had the unexpected results, close the web browser, and then restart the XP Remote Web Console. Keystroke and Navigation Conventions for the XP Remote Web Console The XP Remote Web Console has the following keystroke and navigation conventions: Table 6 describes the text colors and font types displayed in the XP Remote Web Console panels. In general, you can select an object in a panel by left-clicking the mouse. Some commands can be displayed by selecting an object and right-clicking on it. In some cases, you can use the right 34 Installation Requirements and Procedures

35 mouse button to drag and drop an item. This is noted in the instructions for each operation. You can sort objects listed in a table by clicking the header of a column you want to sort. You cannot use the mouse wheel feature. As a general rule, you can only enter alphanumeric characters (ASCII codes) into a text box on XP Remote Web Console. There are certain exceptions, including the following: " \ ; : *? < > / # & + =, Which symbols are or are not usable depends on the panel and the product options. For further information, see the corresponding product user manuals. You cannot use the Home, End, or Delete keys for XP Remote Web Console operations. Always click Exit ( ) to close the XP Remote Web Console panels. Do not close the XP Remote Web Console panels using these methods: Clicking Close ( ) on the pane Using the File or Exit commands Selecting Alt +F4 If you accidentally close the panels using one of these methods, wait for an RMI time-out, and then restart the XP Remote Web Console (see Setting the XP Remote Web Console Environment Parameters on page 108). Do not use function or shortcut keys such as F5, Ctrl+F, Esc, and Ctrl+A for XP Remote Web Console operations because these may have unintended consequences. For example, the F5 key exits and restarts XP Remote Web Console. If you press F5 by accident, close all panels and then log on again. After dragging and dropping objects to another location or area, you might not be able to use the scroll bar on that location or area. If this occurs, close all panels, and then log in again. You cannot drop an object to an area or location where no object exists. When you attempt to drop an object to an invalid area or location, no warning icon is displayed. To drag and drop adjacent objects, use the Shift key to select a group of objects, then hold down the Ctrl key when you select the last object in the group. To drag and drop nonadjacent objects, use the Ctrl key to select a group of objects. Continue to hold the Ctrl key down while you drag and drop the objects. When you try to drag and drop multiple objects, the items may remain selected. If this happens, repeat the drop operation. On rare occasions, the shape of the icon (object) does not change after the drag and drop operation, but this is not a problem. If you move from an XP Remote Web Console panel to another Web page, click the Back button on your browser to return to the XP Remote Web Console main panel, Identity tab (see Figure 46). XP Remote Web Console User Guide 35

36 See Troubleshooting on page 171 for troubleshooting errors and actions during operations on the XP Remote Web Console. Conventions for Using the XP Remote Web Console on UNIX Workstations When you use the XP Remote Web Console on UNIX workstations, the following additional parameters apply: XP Remote Web Console panels: You cannot change the window size. The styles and colors of some panels are displayed differently than the panels displayed on Windows systems. Mozilla browser: If a java_vm process or a Mozilla browser process becomes hung up, XP Remote Web Console performance becomes abnormal. Delete the abnormal process and continue with XP Remote Web Console operations. When you use the XP Remote Web Console on the Japanese version of the Mozilla browser, enter the following commands using the X Server Emulator shell: B Shell: LANG=C export LANG C Shell: setenv LANG C After installing the JRE file on UNIX workstations, enter the following commands using the shell: B Shell: C Shell: PATH=$PATH:[JRE installation directory path]/jre/bin export PATH setenv PATH ${PATH}:[JRE installation directory path]/jre/bin XP Auto LUN Software and XP Performance Control Software panels: You cannot drag and drop objects on the XP Auto LUN Software and XP Performance Control Software panels. You must use the buttons instead. If you select the icon for the XP Remote Web Console main panel when you are using either XP Auto LUN Software or XP Performance Control Software, these panels may be wholly or partially obscured behind the XP Remote Web Console main panel. Before you can use the XP Remote Web Console main panel, close these panels by clicking Close ( ). This terminates the process. To continue the process, select the XP Auto LUN Software or XP Performance Control Software panel to bring it to the foreground. The Close button ( ) on the XP Auto LUN Software panel and the XP Performance Control Software panel remains active even if you click Apply and the process is being executed. If you click Close ( ) after clicking Apply, the panel closes but the process continues. 36 Installation Requirements and Procedures

37 . For the first two operations only, the word Loading is displayed on the message dialog box of the XP Auto LUN Software panel and the XP Performance Control Software panel. This message does not appear for the third and later operations. You cannot drag and drop objects on the LUN Manager panel. You must use the buttons instead. When you use XP Remote Web Console on HP-UX workstations: If you select any part of the XP Remote Web Console main panel when a dialog box is displayed, that dialog box may be wholly or partially obscured behind the XP Remote Web Console main panel. Before you can use the XP Remote Web Console main panel, close the obscured dialog box first. Notes on Using the XP Remote Web Console on Windows Server 2003 Computers If you are using a Windows Server 2003 computer, the following operations will be necessary. When using XP Remote Web Console for the first time, perform the following procedure in Internet Explorer: 1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools > Internet Options. The Internet Options dialog box appears (see Figure 13). 2. Click Advanced. 3. Clear the Do not save encrypted pages to disk check box. 4. Select OK to close the Internet Options dialog box. Figure 13 Clearing the Do Not Save Encrypted Pages to Disk Check Box XP Remote Web Console User Guide 37

38 If a page is not displayed due to an invalid syntax error, register the URL of the desired SVP to the trusted site using the following procedure : 1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools > Internet Options. The Internet Options dialog box appears. 2. Click Security. 3. Click Trusted sites. 4. Click Sites. The Trusted sites panel opens. 5. Type the URL of the desired SVP in the Add this Website to the zone: box. 6. Click Add. 7. Click Close 8. Click OK to close the Internet Options dialog box. Starting Up and Logging on to the XP Remote Web Console IMPORTANT: Because the default user ID has default administrator-level access, one of the first tasks for the XP Remote Web Console administrator should be to change the password. If you are logging on to XP Remote Web Console for the first time, use the default user ID (administrator) and password (administrator) to log on as an administrator, and then change the password. All user IDs and passwords are case-sensitive. If the administrator password is lost or forgotten, contact your HP account support representative to regain access to the restricted functions. All XP Remote Web Console (web client) users are required to log on to the XP Remote Web Console SVP (web server) with a valid user ID and password before executing the XP Remote Web Console Java applet program. To register XP Remote Web Console user accounts, you need the user account for which the Account Administrator role is set to Modify mode (see Setting User Accounts (Account Pane) on page 85. Table 7 Logon Specifications and Restrictions Item Maximum number of concurrent users Logging on to multiple SVPs (web servers) Specifications The arrays can support up to 32 concurrent users. The exceptions are displaying the XP Auto LUN Software panel and executing the Export Tool; in these instances, the limit is two concurrent users. The same user can concurrently log on to more than one SVP (web server) by opening an individual storage device list for each SVP, downloading the web client Java applet program from each SVP, and executing the Java applets on separate web browser windows. If you execute multiple web client Java applet programs for multiple SVPs, insufficient memory may degrade performance. Logging on to the same SVPs (web server) more than once concurrently The same user (ID) may not have multiple concurrent sessions with the same SVPs (web server). 38 Installation Requirements and Procedures

39 . Item Security measure Logon history Automatic logoff operation Specifications If you have failed to log on three times with the same user ID, XP Remote Web Console stops replying for one minute. This is not a system failure. All logon information, including user ID, logon and logoff time, is recorded in the audit log file so that unauthorized access can be detected. In case a user cannot normally log off, you can set the user to be automatically logged off from the SVP after a specific time period. This time period can be specified by the storage administrator with the Enable authority of Storage Administrator Role. Restriction on Accessing Local Client Files Java applets have a security feature that prohibits a user from accessing local client files for operations within the Java applet sandbox. However, this security restriction can be lifted to provide access to local files from XP Remote Web Console because the XP Remote Web Console Java applet has a digital signature. Figure 14 illustrates Java applet security. Figure 14 Illustration of Java Applet Security For JRE 1.4 When you start the Java applet with the digital signature (XP Remote Web Console), the Warning - Security panel appears. This panel provides the opportunity to validate the applet. Take the appropriate action in this panel so that XP Remote Web Console can access the local files. In addition, the digital signature for XP Remote Web Console Java applet has the expiration date. The digital signature might be expired depending on the XP Remote Web Console version that you use. Even though the digital signature is expired, you can continue using XP Remote Web Console. When the digital signature is expired, the Warning - Security panel will inform you of the expiration. The format of the Warning - Security panel varies for JRE 1.4 and JRE 5.0 and are described in the following sections. One of the following panels will be displayed depending on your operational environment. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 39

40 . Figure 15 Security Warning Panel Figure 16 Warning - Security Panel When Digital Signature is Expired (for JRE 1.4). Yes allows you to use XP Remote Web Console (even if the digital signature is expired) because the application can access the local files. No prohibits you from using XP Remote Web Console because the application cannot access the local files. Always allows you to access local files every time you launch XP Remote Web Console (even if the digital signature is expired). If you select this option, you will not see the Warning Security panel again. For JRE 5.0 and JRE 6.0 One of the following panels will be displayed depending on your operational environment. 40 Installation Requirements and Procedures

48 . License Keys A license key is a text string that functions as a password. When you enter the license key for a product option in XP Remote Web Console, that option is unlocked. Because each license key is generated with an array serial number and option ID input, each array requires a unique license key code. License key codes for each product option and array are provided at the time of purchase (see Figure 31). Figure 31 Overview of License Keys and Option Installation Three types of license keys are available: A permanent License Key is issued when the software license is purchased. It is used to enable the product indefinitely. An emergency License Key is used in situations where the temporary key is set to expire in the near future, and the user cannot get the permanent key in time because of special circumstances (for example, a licensed server has crashed or problems exist with the communication infrastructure). An emergency key may also be used when a user who does not intend to purchase the option needs to undo a configuration change that was made during the lifetime of the temporary license key. An emergency key is effective for 30 days. If you forcibly install an emergency key to an option that already has the permanent key, the license for that option will expire in 30 days. A temporary License Key is for trial use. 75 days after the temporary license key is installed (or when there are 45 days left before the expiration), a warning message is displayed on the XP Remote Web Console main panel when you start the XP Remote Web Console. After 120 days, the temporary license key expires. A message that warns the user of the expiration of the license key is displayed, and the license key expiration is also reported to the host. For TrueCopy for z/os, XP Continuous Access Software products, XP Business Copy Software, ShadowImage for z/os, and XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software (LUN manager), the expiration of a temporary license key has the following effects: No new configuration settings may be performed. 48 Installation Requirements and Procedures

49 The configuration settings that were made before the temporary license key expired remain in effect and cannot be deleted. Non-configuration settings that were made before the temporary license key expired can be deleted from the SVP only (not from the XP Remote Web Console). For XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software, Volume Management, Hitachi Flash Access z/os, XP Cache LUN Software, and Hitachi Parallel Access Volume (HPAV), the expiration of a temporary license key has the following consequences: No new configuration settings may be performed. The configuration settings that were made before the temporary license key expired remain in effect and cannot be deleted. For XP Performance Control Software, the expiration of a temporary license key has the following consequences: No monitoring functions may be performed. No new configuration settings (for example, upper-limit control, threshold control, or selection of port type) may be performed. Configuration settings that were made before the temporary license key expired may be expunged from the SVP only (not from XP Remote Web Console). Contact your HP account support representative. Configuration settings that were made before the temporary license key expired may be expunged from the SVP only (not from XP Remote Web Console). Contact your HP account support representative for assistance. If you forcibly install an emergency key for an option that already has the permanent key installed, the license of that option will expire in 30 days. Enabling and Disabling Options on the XP Remote Web Console To activate the product options for the arrays on XP Remote Web Console, you will need to install the appropriate license keys. This section describes the product options on XP Remote Web Console and provides the procedures for installing and uninstalling the product options from the License Key panel. Only storage administrators with write authority to the License Key panel can install and uninstall the product options. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 49

50 For a storage partition administrator to use a product option within their own SLPR, a storage administrator with write authority to the License Key panel must first install the product options on the array, and then allocate the licensed capacity for each product option to the individual SLPRs. For more information, see Allocating Licensed Capacity among Storage Logical Partitions on page 63. XP Remote Web Console Options Table 8 lists the options for the XP Remote Web Console. Only some of the XP Remote Web Console options are available to storage partition administrators.

Allocating Licensed Capacity among Storage Logical Partitions Overview of Storage Logical Partitions When storage partition administrators want to use the XP Remote Web Console product options for their own SLPRs, the licensed capacity for each option has to be partitioned and allocated to each SLPR. When you want to allocate the license to SLPRs for product options that are not charged by the amount of available capacity (for example, XP Remote Web Console) or when you have purchased the unlimited license for the options charged by the amount of available capacity, you need to set the options for each SLPR to Enable or Disable. Only storage administrators can partition and allocate licensed capacity. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 63

64 Once you have created SLPRs, neither a storage administrator nor a storage partition administrator can set the resources of the created SLPRs until you have allocated the license to each SLPR. A storage partition administrator can use some of the XP Remote Web Console options. For SLPRs, the storage administrator can partition and allocate the licensed capacity of the following product options: XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software - Volume Manager XP LUN Security Extension Software XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software - LUN Manager XP Cache LUN Software XP Auto LUN Software/XP Auto LUN Base Monitor XP Data Shredder Software For a storage partition administrator to use a partition, the license keys must be installed on the Licence Key panel and enabled for their partition. A storage administrator can only make settings for SLPR 0 XP Auto LUN Software has different parameters. Once you have installed the product options on the License Key panel, a storage administrator can monitor the information on the entire array, whether or not the license has been allocated to each SLPR. If a storage partition administrator wants to use XP Auto LUN Software, the XP Auto LUN Software license must be allocated to that SLPR. After the license key has been installed for the XP Remote Web Console Java API, a storage administrator with write permission for XP Disk/Cache Partition Software can then log on to the array, enable the various product options, and allocate the license capacities to the storage logical partitions as needed, using the License Key Partition Definition panel. See License Key Partition Definition Pane for a description of the License Key Partition Definition panel, and see Partitioning Licensed Capacity and Allocating to SLPR on page 68 for instructions. License Key Partition Definition Pane The License Key Partition Definition panel (see Figure 41) lists the product options that are available to storage logical partitions. From here, a storage administrator can allocate the License Key capacity among the various storage logical partitions. Each option must first be installed from the License Key panel before its license capacity can be partitioned. For more information on installing options, see Enabling and Disabling Options on the XP Remote Web Console on page 49. To open the License Key Partition Definition panel, log on to XP Remote Web Console, click Install ( ) on the left side of the panel, and then click License Key Partition Definition (see Figure 41). 64 Installation Requirements and Procedures

Remote Web Console Features The Remote Web Console main panel has the following features: 72 Performing XP Remote Web Console Operations

73 The Option button ( ) appears when you log on as a storage administrator. When you log on as a storage partition administrator, this button will not appear. The Option button opens the Control Panel (see Figure 73). From the Control Panel, the storage administrator can, for example, set XP Remote Web Console environment parameters and download configuration files. For additional information on the Control Panel, see Control Panel on page 108 The status lamp icons ( : Normal, : Warning, : Abnormal) indicate the array's error status by color (blue: normal, yellow: warning, red: abnormal) according to the host SIM status. For detailed information, check the Status panel (see Figure 54). The User field is located at the top left corner of all XP Remote Web Console panels. It shows the user ID of the currently logged-in user. When you log on as a storage partition administrator, the SLPR number and name are displayed at the left of the user ID in the format of "< SLPR number: SLPR name>". The drop-down list for CU groups ( ) allows you to select the CU group to which the LDEV that you want to operate belongs. When the maximum number of LDEVs are available, the following CU groups can be selected from the drop-down list. This drop-down list is not displayed when you log on as an administrator. CU00-3F (CU group 0: the group of CU numbers 00 to 3F) CU40-7F (CU group 1: the group of CU numbers 40 to 7F) CU80 - BF (CU group 2: the group of CU numbers 80 to BF) CUC0 - FE (CU group 3: the group of CU numbers C0 to FE) The operation of some of the XP Remote Web Console product options can be performed for all CU groups, however, operation of other product options is limited to CU group 0. When you switch the panel to the product option for which the operation is limited to CU group 0, the dropdown list for CU groups is no longer displayed. When you select a CU group other than CU group 0, the buttons to start product options for which the operation is limited to CU group 0 are changed to grey and they are no longer available. For information about CU groups, see Important Terms and Concepts on page 15. The audit buttons allow you to download audit log files. The audit log contains the operation history for all actions performed from XP Remote Web Console, XP Command View Advanced Edition (including the XP SMI Provider) and other applications such as HP Systems Insight Manager and HP Storage Essentials. The operation history includes what operations were performed, by whom, and when. This can serve as an important security tool or simply as a means to investigate the cause of potential errors. Audit:Normal ( file is below the threshold. ) indicates that the number of saved lines in the audit log Audit:Warning ( ) indicates that the number of saved lines in the audit log file is above the threshold, but that data is still being saved. Audit:Wraparound ( ) indicates that the number of saved lines in the audit log file has exceeded the maximum, and that data is being lost. For detailed information on audit log files, see Downloading the Audit Log File on page 101. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 73

74 To download the Audit log file using these buttons, you need to log on with the Storage Administrator user account. The Audit Log Administrator Role needs to be set to Modify or View for the operation authority setting for the user account. Even though the FTP server settings are completed, the Audit:Warning button or the Audit:Wraparound button might remain displayed on the Remote Web Console main panel. This is due to the failure of transfer of the audit log information file. See Downloading the Audit Log File on page 101for how to resolve the problem. The All Refresh button ( ) allows you to update the information on the SVP and then display the latest information on the Remote Web Console's main panel. When you click this button, all information displayed on XP Remote Web Console is reacquired from the array; therefore, it takes time until the processing has completed. CAUTION: While an update is in process, other users are locked out of the XP Remote Web Console panels and array maintenance and SVP operations. Because the update can take some time, you should not use the All Refresh button unless you need to recover from an error. If SVP maintenance is in progress, the XP Remote Web Console panel may not be properly displayed even after you click All Refresh. The exclusive lock icons indicate the operation mode of all currently logged-in users. When a storage administrator is in Modify mode, storage partition administrators cannot change to Modify mode. Only one storage partition administrator for each SLPR can be in Modify mode. If all users are operating in View mode, the blue Unlocked-shaped icon ( ) is displayed. If a user is operating in the Modify mode, the red Locked-shaped icon ( ) is displayed. The display may show as Locked ( operations are being performed. ) when the SVP maintenance is in progress or if SNMP The mode-switching button allows users to switch the operation mode between View ( ) and Modify ( ). The button always shows the current user operation. Click the mode-switching button to change modes. 74 Performing XP Remote Web Console Operations

You can then specify the destination to save the file. The audit log contains the operation history for all actions performed from XP Remote Web Console, including what operations were performed, by whom, and when. This can be an important security tool or simply a means to investigate the cause of potential errors. Only the storage administrator can download the audit log file. The Audit Log Administrator Role need to be set to Modify or View for the user account of that storage administrator. You can transfer the audit log of the arrays to syslog servers. You can also download a system information file (syslog.log), which contains the audit log that is in the same format as the audit log transferred to the syslog server. For detailed information on the syslog operation, see Checking the Audit Log by Using the Syslog Server (Syslog Pane) on page 103. The audit log file has the following conventions: File type: The audit log file is a generic term for the login information file (login.log) and the setting information file (audit.log). These files are compressed to the tgz file when they are downloaded. The default file name is AuditYYYYMMDD.tgz where YYYYMMDD indicates the year, month, and day that the file was downloaded. You can specify the destination to save the file and the file name when you download it. The linefeed codes for Windows (CR + LF) are used in the audit log file; therefore, some text editors will not display the linefeed codes accurately. To create the *.tgz file, the directory structure is first archived using the tar command and then compressed using the gzip command. To decompress the *.tgz file, you will need to use a tool that supports both tar and gzip commands. For instructions on how to decompress the file, see the manual or online help of the file-compression and extraction tool that you are using. You can restore items using the downloaded.tgz files. To do so, use the archive restore check box. Output information: The output information includes the following: XP Remote Web Console User Guide 101

Setting information: 61.5 MB Threshold: Once the audit log reaches its maximum capacity, the starting line of the oldest data begins to be overwritten with the starting line of the newest data (wrap around). When you reach 70% of this threshold, the Audit:Warning button is displayed on the XP Remote Web Console Main panel. You should download the audit file at or before this threshold to prevent the old data from being overwritten. When you exceed the maximum and data is being overwritten, the Audit:Wraparound button is displayed. The counter is reset when you download the audit file. Control information: The first line of the audit log file is the control information, including the file name and the last time the file was written.

103 1. Log on as a storage administrator and open the XP Remote Web Console main panel (Figure 46). The Audit Log Administrator Role needs to be set to Modify or View for the storage administrator's user account. 2. Click either Audit:Normal ( ), Audit:Warning ( ), or Audit:Wraparound ( ) on the upper right corner of the XP Remote Web Console main panel (see Figure 46 on page 70). 3. Specify the destination the file name, and click Save. It takes from one to five minutes to download the audit log file. For additional information about Audit Log files, see the HP StorageWorks XP Audit Log reference guide for XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays and SVS 200 or contact your HP account support representative. Checking the Audit Log Using the Syslog Server (Syslog Pane) For detailed information on the audit log file, see Downloading the Audit Log File on page 101. To check the audit log of the arrays, you can always transfer the audit log to syslog servers as you connect the syslog servers to the array SVP through LAN. You can connect up to two syslog servers. The first one is referred to as the primary syslog server; the second one is referred to as the secondary syslog server. UDP is required for transferring the audit log. To transfer the audit log to syslog servers, consider the characteristics of UDP when you design a network. For detailed information on syslog, see the RFC3164 published by IETF. The audit log is also stored in the SVP. The audit log that is stored in the SVP has the same format as the audit log that is transferred to syslog servers. You can download the stored audit log to the XP Remote Web Console computer as a syslog information file. For information on reading the audit log for syslog servers, see the HP StorageWorks Audit Log Reference Guide. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 103

104 . Only the storage administrator can configure syslog servers for transferring audit logs or downloading the syslog information file. The Audit Log Permission for the storage administrator must be set to Enable. The Audit Log Administrator Role needs to be set to Modify for the user account of that storage administrator. If the Audit Log Administrator Role is set to View, the storage administrator can only view the Syslog panel and cannot perform operations using the Syslog panel. The specifications for the syslog information file are as follows: File type: The syslog information file (syslog.log) is a text file. The file is compressed to the tgz file when it is downloaded. The default file name is syslogyyyymmdd.tgz where YYYYMMDD indicates the date the file is downloaded (YYYY: year, MM: month, DD: day). You can specify the destination for saving the file and the file name when you download it. The linefeed codes for the syslog information file are LF. Output information: In the syslog information file, the login information file and setting information file (including the detailed information) are output. For information on reading output to the syslog information file, contact your HP account support representative. The maximum number of characters in a line: Up to 1,024 one-byte characters are output in a line. The maximum number of lines that can be saved: Up to 120,000 lines of data can be saved in the syslog information file. File size: The maximum file size of the syslog information file is MB. Behavior when the number of lines of saved data in the syslog information file reaches the maximum number: When the maximum number of lines of saved data in the syslog information file is reached, the file starts to be overwritten from the starting line with new data. This results in the deletion of old data (wrap around). To confirm whether the maximum number of lines have been saved in the syslog information file, check the audit log transferred to the syslog servers or output to the syslog information file. You can perform syslog operations from the Syslog panel. Figure 69 Syslog Pane The Syslog panel has the following features: 104 Performing XP Remote Web Console Operations

Using the Audit Log Pane You can use the Audit Log panel of Remote Web Console to configure FTP servers to transfer the audit log information file. You can also transfer the audit log information file to the FTP servers manually using the Audit Log panel. Only the storage administrator can configure FTP servers for transferring the audit log information file or transfer the audit log information file manually to the FTP servers. Also, Audit Log Administrator Role needs to be set to Modify for the user account of that storage administrator. If Audit Log Administrator Role is set to View, the storage administrator can view the Audit Log panel, but not change the setting of the Audit Log panel or transfer the audit log information file manually to the FTP servers. The SIM occurs to notify the failure of transfer when the audit log information file are not transferred to any storage servers due to the failures of the FTP server or LAN. You can view the SIM in the Status panel. The reference code is 7C0300. In this case, perform the following operations: Resolve the error condition on the FTP server or LAN, and transfer the audit log information file manually by clicking the Transfer button on the Audit Log panel. After that, complete the SIM in the Audit Log panel. If the error condition cannot be resolved, download the audit log information file to the Remote Web Console by clicking the Audit:Warning button or the Audit:Wraparound button on the Remote Web Console main panel.

After you have set the environment parameters, you need to log on to the XP Remote Web Console again to make the changes take effect. Figure 71 Control Panel, Set Env. Tab The Control Panel's Set Env. panel has the following features: Maximum number of connections: Sets the maximum number of XP Remote Web Console users that can concurrently connect to the same array. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 109

110 You cannot change this value from the XP Remote Web Console. Contact your HP account support representative if you want to change the default setting. Maximum number of user entries: Sets the maximum number of user entries that can be registered in the user account list of a array. You cannot change this value from the XP Remote Web Console. Contact your HP account support representative. Number of current user entries: Shows the number of user entries currently registered in the user account list. Automatic distribution of the Java plug-in - Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is required to use XP Remote Web Console. If a computer that is being used as an XP Remote Web Console does not have JRE, the SVP can distribute and install the appropriate JRE automatically when the user logs on to the SVP. The default is JRE Select JRE1.4.2 from the drop-down list for the Automatic distribution of the Java plug-in parameter. RMI time-out period - If the user cannot access the SVP for a certain period of time because of a network error, the RMI time-out logs the user off of the SVP. This has the following parameters: Specify 1 minute, 5 60 minutes in 5-minute increments, 70 to 120 minutes in 10-minute increments, or One day (24 hours). The default is 1 minute. Specify NO to disable this parameter. If you specify NO as the value of the RMI time-out period, the user is not logged off automatically when an error occurs. This might prevent that user from logging in again. This setting is not recommended under ordinary circumstances. The value of the RMI time-out period must be greater than the value set for the smallest polling period, either for checking the exclusive lock or for checking obstacles (see below for those parameters). For example, specify a value of the RMI time-out period parameter to satisfy the following condition: RMI time-out period > min [A, B], when A = Polling period for checking exclusive lock, B = Polling period for checking obstacles, and min [A, B] indicates the minimum value selected from A and B. You cannot disable this parameter. RMI time-out for Modify mode: If a user is in Modify mode but does not make any changes that access the RMI server for a specified period of time, Modify mode is released, and the View mode is displayed. The default time period is 30 minutes. You can specify between 10 and 60 minutes in 10-minute increments, or between 120 and 360 minutes in 60-minute increments. 110 Performing XP Remote Web Console Operations

111 . Specify No to disable this feature. Polling period for checking exclusive lock: If multiple users are viewing array information in View mode, while one user is changing the information in Modify mode, the SVP can monitor the user who is changing the array information. The Locked and Unlocked icons (see Remote Web Console Features on page 72) are automatically updated either when the array is polled or when a user who is in Modify mode logs out from XP Remote Web Console. The shorter the time period you specify, the more frequently the Lock/Unlock status is updated, but this does increase network traffic. The default time period is 35 seconds. You can specify 5 60 in 5-second increments, or 70 to 120 in 10-second increments. Specify NO to disable this parameter. Polling period for checking obstacles: Specify a time interval to monitor the Disk Controller and Disk Array Unit status, which is displayed by the status lamp icon on the Status tab of the XP Remote Web Console main panel. The default time period is 110 seconds. You can specify 5 60 seconds (in 5-second increments), 110 or 120 for the parameter. You can also specify NO to disable this parameter. NO is recommended if you are also selecting the Status Pane hidden option. Status Pane hidden Option: Specify the option to display the XP Remote Web Console Main panel, Status tab (see Figure 55) or not. If the Hide Status Pane check box is clicked, the Status tab and the Status panel disappear from the XP Remote Web Console main panel. By default, the check box is cleared.

131 4 Setting SNMP Agent Properties Overview of SNMP Agent Properties CAUTION: Before setting SNMP Agent properties, be sure that both the Hitachi SNMP API and the Microsoft SNMP agent are installed on the array's SVP to allow the SNMP agent to run as a daemon program. The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an industry-standard method for storage and communication devices. It is used to transfer status and management commands across TCP/IP networks. The SNMP agent (SNMP) performs error-reporting operations requested by the SNMP manager for the array(s). SNMP properties are usually set from the SVP, but you can also set the SNMP properties for the connected arrays using the XP Remote Web Console. For a flowchart of the array's SNMP environment, see Figure 93. The SNMP IP Security panel is not available to storage partition administrators. A storage administrator can perform the following SNMP functions using the XP Remote Web Console: Register the SNMP system group information (Name, Contact, Location) Add and delete SNMP Manager IP addresses (see Adding SNMP Manager IP Addresses on page 135 and Deleting SNMP Manager IP Addresses on page 135) Add, delete, and change communities (see Adding A Community Name on page 136, Deleting a Community Name on page 137, and Changing a Community Name on page 138) Add, delete, and change IP addresses of communities (see Adding Community IP Addresses on page 139 and Deleting a Community IP Address on page 140) To set the SNMP properties, you must register the SNMP system group information including the device name, contact information, and location of the array to be managed in XP Remote Web Console's main panel (Identity panel) (see Figure 46).

143 5 SSL Encrypted Communication Overview of SSL Encrypted Communication To improve the security of remote operations between an XP Remote Web Console and an array, you can set up SSL encrypted communication. By setting SSL encrypted communication, the User ID and Password required for logging on to the XP Remote Web Console are encrypted, thus providing communication with a higher security level. For detailed information on the SSL encrypted communication, see the Encrypted Communication User's Guide. The SVP web server may need to be updated to an Apache version which supports SSL encrypted communication. Please contact your HP account support representative to have this change made to the SVP. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 143

145 . 6 Configuration File Loader Overview of Configuration File Loader Configuration File Loader is used to make large-scale or batch changes to the LUN Manager configuration of the array, using either a text editor or spreadsheet software to edit configuration definition files (spreadsheet files) and apply the changes. You can apply the same configuration definition file to different arrays, and you can define the configuration when you are offline. The instructions in this chapter assume the use of Microsoft Excel 2000, which is recommended for optimal compatibility. Currently, Configuration File Loader supports only LUN Manager functions. Figure 105 shows a flow chart of Configuration File Loader operations. The Configuration File Loader panel is not available to storage partition administrators. Figure 105 Configuration File Loader Operation Flow Chart XP Remote Web Console User Guide 145

146 . General Spreadsheet Conventions Spreadsheet File Requirements You will need to write the spreadsheet according to specific rules and in a specific format. Figure 106 shows a sample spreadsheet. Figure 106 Sample Spreadsheet All of the formatting requirements in the following table must be satisfied. Table 16 Spreadsheet File Formatting Requirements Item File type File name Maximum number of rows in a spreadsheet End-of-line character Maximum number of letters in a row Case-sensitivity Requirements Text file Extension must be.spd. Maximum number of letters for the file name is 32 including the extension. The following symbols cannot be used for the file name: \ / :, ; *? < > and space. File path must be under 255 letters. 400,000 rows Linefeed code must be put in the end of each row. Maximum number of letters in a row is 128 bytes, including the linefeed code at the end. Settings are not case-sensitive, except for WWN and host group. 146 Configuration File Loader

147 Item Format (for more information on the required format, LUN Manager Spreadsheet Settings on page 150) Requirements Host group ID, host mode, LUN, CU, and LDEV parameters should be written in one or two-digit hexadecimal numbers. LUN parameters can be written in up to four-digit hexadecimal numbers. Tab codes and a series of spaces before or after a comma are ignored. Spreadsheet Components The spreadsheet consists of the following components: Spreadsheet Declaration (see Spreadsheet Declaration on page 147) Function tags (see Function Tags on page 148) Configuration definition(s) (see Configuration Definitions on page 149) Comments (see Comments on page 150) Spreadsheet Declaration The spreadsheet declaration is required, and is written at the beginning of the spreadsheet. Certain parts of the declaration will have already been written in the exported current spreadsheet. If the declaration line is incorrect, an error occurs and the spreadsheet file will be rejected. The spreadsheet declaration line is not case-sensitive. Format (variables are shown in italics): #!Version,Version number,program Product,Process mode Example: #!Version 04_00_00,LUN,Change Table 17 describes the spreadsheet declaration components. Table 17 Spreadsheet Declaration Components Component #! Version (One byte space) Version number, (comma with no spaces) Product, (comma with no spaces) Description Indicates the declaration line. Cannot be changed. Indicates that the Remote Method Invocation (RMI) version number follows. Cannot be changed. Required between the version and the version number. RMI version number. Follows the RMI version number Indicates the required product. LUN indicates LUN Manager. Follows the program product XP Remote Web Console User Guide 147

148 Component Process mode Description Indicates the required process mode. The only mode that is currently available is Change, which indicates adding, changing, or deleting. When the downloaded spreadsheet file is opened, the process mode is not yet stated. Function Tags Before you write the settings, you need to state the function of the parameter. This is called a function tag, and is formatted as a string that is in brackets ([ ]). The type and order of the function tag are determined by the product. Function tags have the following characteristics: At least one function tag is required in a spreadsheet. The function tag must be written at the very beginning of the row. If a function tag is already on the current spreadsheet and does not need to be changed, it must be deleted from the new spreadsheet so it is not processed. If the function tag remains in the spreadsheet, and no new settings for the tag are written, the settings are processed as deleted. [CHA], [Port] and [LDEV] tags do not support a delete operation, so if no new setting is written for these functions an error occurs. Any other comments and settings written in the same row as the function tag are ignored. The row after the function tag indicates the required setting items (CHA and PCB Mode in the example) for the function. The setting items are separated by commas. Example: [CHA] #CHA,PCB Mode The existing settings for the function are written. The existing settings row, which starts with #$, is recognized as a comment row. CAUTION: The settings in the rows that start with #$ are not allowed to change. Example: [LUN] #Port,HostGroup,LUN,CU,LDEV (items to be changed) #$1C,0,1,1,1 (existing settings row) An example of the declaration and the function tag is as follows: #!Version 04_00_00,LUN,Change [CHA] [Port] [HostGroup] [WWN] [LUN] [LDEV] 148 Configuration File Loader

149 . Configuration Definitions There are three types of configuration definitions: Adding new settings. You can add new settings if the current settings area of the spreadsheet is blank (see Figure 108). Deleting current settings. You can delete existing current settings by making the new settings area blank. Changing current settings. You can change existing current settings by writing a different setting in the new settings area. The format of the existing setting and the new settings must be the same. The configuration definition consists of the index and the parameter (see Figure 107). The index is fixed for each function tag, so it must be the same for both the current settings and the new settings. By modifying the settings in the parameter, you can add, delete, or change the settings. You can write the configuration definition either between a function tag and another function tag, or between a function tag and the end of the file. A configuration definition allows you to set the parameters (adding, deleting, or changing) for the array. A row of configuration definitions can be divided into the current settings area, a blank column, and the new settings area. Configuration definition settings must comply with the following: The current settings area and the new settings area must be in exactly the same format, with four blank columns in between. The maximum number of columns for the settings depends on the product, and is stated in the declaration row. The number of available columns for each function tag depends on the number of parameters that can be set for each function and on the version of the spreadsheet. When the current spreadsheet file is downloaded, the new settings area is left blank. All of the columns should be separated by commas. You may not change the indexes, and all of the specified index settings indexes must match the actual settings. Do not write the identical index more than once in the same function tag. To change some but not all of the settings on the same function tag, for those settings that you don t want to change you need to copy and paste the current settings to the new settings area. Otherwise, those settings will be processed as deleted. Figure 107 shows an example of index and parameter definition. Figure 107 Sample Index and Parameter Definition Figure 108 shows sample configuration definition settings. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 149

150 . Figure 108 Sample Configuration Definitions Comments You can also type comment rows in the spreadsheet by beginning a row with the # character. The comment row can consists of any characters in any language. A row that includes only a linefeed code is also recognized as a comment row. Example: # (comment) # Change CHA settings (comment) [CHA](function tag) # CHA,PCB Mode (comment) # (linefeed) # (linefeed) CHA-1P,Standard (indicating changes) CHA-1Q,Standard (indicating changes) New Settings Can Affect Other Settings As a general rule, the settings are applied to the array one at a time, in the order they appear in the spreadsheet. This means that the settings of the prior function tags can affect the following function tags. For example, if you were to delete a host group in the [HostGroup] tag, the path settings related to the deleted host group would also be automatically deleted. If you then write the new settings for the automatically deleted path in the [LUN] tag or the [WWN] tag, that would cause an error. LUN Manager Spreadsheet Settings The following LUN Manager functions can be defined by using Configuration File Loader: Channel Adapter (CHA) settings allow you to change the PCB mode. See Setting the CHA Mode on page 152. Port Settings allow you to change the settings for arbitrated loop-physical address (AL-PA), data transfer speed (host speed), and topology. You can also change the Secure Manager XP setting. See Port Settings on page 153. Host Group Settings allow you to create, delete, or change the host group. See Setting the Host Group on page Configuration File Loader

151 WWN settings allow you to add, delete or change the WWN information. See Setting the WWN Information on page 157. LU path settings allow you to add, delete, or change LU paths. See Setting the LU Path on page 157. Command Device settings and set or release the command device and command device security. See Configuring the Command Devices on page 158. Column Format The LUN Manager spreadsheet allows you to write the settings for CHA mode, port, host group, WWN, path definition, and command devices. The format of the LUN Manager spreadsheet is as follows: 1st column to 6th column: Current settings area 7th column to 10th column: Blank columns 11th column to 16th column: New settings area The number of columns used depends on the function tag. If a particular function tag requires less than six columns, the unused columns are left blank. Table 18 describes the format of the LUN Manager spreadsheet. Table 18 LUN Manager Spreadsheet Format Column [CHA] [Port] [HostGroup] Function Tag [WWN] [LUN] [LDEV] 1st CHA Port Port Port Port CU 2nd PCB Mode Security Switch Group ID Group ID Group ID LDEV 3rd Blank AL-PA Name WWN LUN Command Device 4th Blank Fabric Host mode Name CU Command Device Security 5th Blank Connection Host mode option Blank LDEV Blank 6th Blank Channel speed Blank Blank Blank 7th Blank 8th Blank 9th Blank 10th Blank 11th CHA Port Port Port Port CU 12th PCB Mode Security Switch Group ID Group ID Group ID LDEV 13th Blank AL-PA Name WWN LUN Command Device XP Remote Web Console User Guide 151

For detailed information on LUN Manager, including the available values and the relationships between each function, see the HP StorageWorks XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager User Guide for XP12000/XP10000 Disk Arrays and SVS 200: LUN Manager and Volume Manager. LUN Manager spreadsheets must conform to those parameters. Setting the CHA Mode The [CHA] tag allows you to set the channel adapter mode. The [CHA] tag is available only for changing settings. You cannot add or delete the settings with the [CHA] tag definitions. Mainframe settings are not written on the exported spreadsheet. You cannot change the NAS settings using the spreadsheet. However, the current NAS settings are commented on the exported spreadsheet (the rows start with #$ ). IMPORTANT: Do not change the NAS comment rows. When you want to set the initiator/external mix mode for the PCB mode, set HighSpeed the same as when you set the high-speed mode. Table 19 lists the available configuration definitions for the [CHA] tag. Table 19 Available Configuration Values for the [CHA] Tag Column 1st, 11th (Index) Item CHA Available Values One of the following can be set: CHA-1E, CHA-1F, CHA-1G, CHA-1H, CHA-1A, CHA-1B, CHA-1L, CHA-1K, CHA-2Q, CHA-2R, CHA-2T, CHA-2U, CHA-2M, CHA-2N, CHA-2X, CHA-2W 152 Configuration File Loader

HighSpeed (Block-B): The lower four ports of the CHA are the High Speed mode. High Speed mode (32 ports): Standard: Standard mode (all ports) HighSpeed: High Speed mode (all ports) HighSpeed (Block-ABCD): Define four blocks as A, B, C, D, and write only for the High Speed mode in the order of A, B, C, D. For example, when A is High Speed mode, you will write: HighSpeed (Block-A) Another example, when A, B, and D are High Speed mode, you will write: HighSpeed (Block-ABD) 3rd-6th, 13th-16th Blank Port Settings The [Port] tag allows you to set the port information and the change the security switch (Secure Manager XP) to ON or OFF. You can change the [Port] tag definitions, but may not add or delete them. You cannot change the NAS settings using the spreadsheet. However, the current NAS settings are commented on the exported spreadsheet (the rows start with #$ ). CAUTION: Do not change the NAS comment rows. XP Remote Web Console User Guide 153
