5 5 Introduction to Unified Manager installation and setup on Red Hat Enterprise Linux You can install Unified Manager on both physical servers or virtual servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Unified Manager supports monitoring of clustered Data ONTAP 8.3 and 8.2.x systems. Unified Manager also supports features, such as vaulting, nondisruptive operations, and Storage Virtual Machines (SVMs) with Infinite Volume. If you configure a connection with a Performance Manager server, you can track the performance incidents discovered by that Performance Manager from within the Unified Manager web UI. If you pair Unified Manager with the Workflow Automation (WFA) server, you can enable automated SnapMirror and SnapVault based data protection operations through Unified Manager. Unified Manager can also be downloaded and installed as a virtual appliance on a VMware ESXi Server. For more information on this type of deployment, see the OnCommand Unified Manager Installation and Setup Guide for VMware Virtual Appliances. For the most current compatibility information, see the Interoperability Matrix. Related tasks Setting up a connection between Performance Manager and Unified Manager on page 34 Setting up a connection between OnCommand Workflow Automation and Unified Manager on page 38 Related information NetApp Interoperability Matrix Tool How Unified Manager works with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a commercial-grade operating system. It is one of the supported systems on which you can install and run Unified Manager to monitor and manage your clustered Data ONTAP storage domain. The Red Hat Enterprise Linux server on which you install Unified Manager can be running either on a physical machine or on a virtual machine running on VMware ESXi Server or Microsoft Hyper-V. To install Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you must first download and run Red Hat package manager modules (RPMs), which are the package formats most often used for installing software applications on the Red Hat OS.

6 6 OnCommand Unified Manager 6.2 Contents of the Unified Manager installation package for Red Hat Enterprise Linux The Unified Manager download web page enables you to download two zipped bundles to install Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux: an optional third-party-dependencies bundle, and the main Unified Manager bundle. Contents of the Unified Manager bundle The Unified Manager bundle includes all the modules necessary to install the Unified Manager software on top of the required vendor software not made by NetApp. The contents of this zipped bundle includes the following RPM modules: ocie-serverbase rpm ocie-server rpm ocie-au rpm netapp-ocum rpm Contents of the third-party-dependencies bundle The third-party-dependencies bundle is a zipped file that contains packages for installing Java, MySQL, and other vendor utilities. These utilities are not made by NetApp, but they are necessary to support Unified Manager. If your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system is not already installed with the required utilities and the versions of Java and MySQL necessary to support a Unified Manager installation, you can download and install the contents of this bundle to ensure a successful installation. The contents of this bundle includes RPM packages for the following products: JRE 1.7 MySQL 5.6 Enterprise Edition p7zip rrdtool Related information NetApp Support What the umadmin users do For each instance in which Performance Manager or Unified Manager is installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, an initial user, always named "umadmin," is automatically created. The umadmin users are the initial users used to access the Performance Manager web UI or the Unified Manager web UI after installation and from there perform configuration and management functions. umadmin users and customized passwords The name umadmin, whether created for Performance Manager or for Unified Manager, can never be changed; however, the password assigned to each umadmin user can and should be customized immediately after installation. For example, in a storage management infrastructure consisting of a Unified Manager server and two Performance Manager servers, access to the three objects might be configured as follows:

7 Introduction to Unified Manager installation and setup on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 The umadmin user for Unified Manager can log in as umadmin but authenticate with a customized password like "UMx9x947." The umadmin user for Performance Manager server 1 will log in as umadmin authenticate with a customized password like "PMz8z831." The umadmin user for Performance Manager server 2 will log in as umadmin authenticate with a customized password like "PMz468RT." The umadmin user OnCommand Administrator role and maintenance user type During an installation of Unified Manager or Performance Manager on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux machine, the associated umadmin user is assigned an OnCommand Administrator user role and configured as the maintenance user type. As such, each umadmin user can perform functions reserved for that role and that type. Performance Manager umadmin user abilities The umadmin user created during Performance Manager installation can perform the following functions: In the OnCommand Administrator role in Performance Manager allows the umadmin user to log in to the Performance Manager web UI and perform all the performance monitoring and troubleshooting operations supported through that interface. As the maintenance user type, the umadmin user can perform the following operations. Start the initial configuration of the Performance Manager web UI. Access the Performance Manager maintenance console and perform all menu operations displayed through that interface, including configuring a connection between Performance Manager and Unified Manager. Unified Manager umadmin user abilities The umadmin user created during Unified Manager installation can perform the following functions: As the OnCommand Administrator, log in to the Unified Manager web UI and perform all the monitoring and configuration operations supported through that interface. As the sole user assigned the maintenance user type, the umadmin user alone is authorized to start the initial configuration of Unified Manager. What AutoSupport does With the help of the AutoSupport feature, Unified Manager sends information to technical support to help with troubleshooting. AutoSupport messages are scanned for potential problems and are available to technical support when they assist you in resolving issues.

8 8 Requirements for Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux To ensure successful installation of Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you must confirm that the system on which Unified Manager is being installed meets certain system and software requirements. System requirements The Red Hat Enterprise Linux system on which you install Unified Manager requires that the following additional capabilities and capacities be reserved to support Unified Manager: Note: These requirements must be met whether the target machine is a virtual machine, running on VMware ESXi Server or Microsoft Hyper-V, or a physical machine. Reserved CPU cycle capacity: 9572 MHz Reserved RAM: 12 GB Reserved free hard disk space: 150 GB, where the capacity is allotted as follows: 50 GB allotted to the root partition of the target system 100 GB of free disk space allotted to the /data directory, which is mounted on an LVM drive or on a separate local disk attached to the target system Important: Mounting the /data directory on an NFS or CIFS share is not supported. This configuration enables you to use a Red Hat Enterprise Linux machine with a smaller root partition and also enables you to expand /data directory storage if required at a later time. If the Red Hat Enterprise Linux target machine has a pre-existing configuration in which the /opt directory and /var/log directory are mounted on a separate partition, you must follow these sizing guidelines: Allocate at least 15 GB for /var/log Allocate at least 5 GB for /opt Allocate at least 12 GB for /tmp Allocate at least 100 GB for /data With this configuration, you can allocate space for root partition as per the best practice guidelines for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Host connectivity requirement The Red Hat Enterprise Linux physical or virtual system on which you install Unified Manager must be FQDN-configured in such a way that you can successfully ping the host name from the host itself. You can use the host name (or the host IP address) to access the product web UI. If you configured a static IP address for your network during deployment, then you would have designated a name for the network host. If you configured the network using DHCP, the host name should be taken from the DNS.

9 Requirements for Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 Software requirements The Red Hat Enterprise Linux system on which you install Unified Manager requires the following versions of the operating system and supporting software installed: Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 6.5 (64-bit) Oracle JRE 1.7.0_79 MySQL Enterprise Edition This version must be supplied by Oracle Corporation or by the downloaded Unified Manager third-party-dependencies bundle. p7zip rrd tool and libraries If you do not have the listed software installed, downloading, unzipping, and installing the thirdparty-dependencies bundle automatically installs these packages. User authorization requirements To perform Unified Manager installation on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you must be logged in as the root user on the target Red Hat Enterprise Linux system. Restriction: Installation by non-root users using the sudo command is not supported. License requirements No special licenses are required to install Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Dedicated use requirement The Red Hat Enterprise Linux physical or virtual system on which you install Unified Manager must be used exclusively for Unified Manager and not shared with other applications. Important: This restriction includes Performance Manager. Performance Manager cannot be installed on the same Red Hat Enterprise Linux server on which you are installing Unified Manager. Supported browsers and platforms To use the Unified Manager GUI, you must use a supported browser that runs on a supported client platform. Unified Manager has been tested with the following browsers and client platforms; other browsers might work but have not been qualified. See the Interoperability Matrix at mysupport.netapp.com/ matrix for the complete list of supported browser versions. Supported browsers Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 (Standards mode) or later Google Chrome, versions 36 or later Mozilla Firefox, versions 24 ESR and 31 ESR or later Apple Safari version 7 or later

Configuring initial settings After the installation of Unified Manager on Red Hat Enterprise Linux is completed, you can access the Unified Manager web UI to configure initial details about the umadmin user and the cluster that user is to manage and monitor. At the end of Unified Manager installation on the target Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, you have the following information: An IP address or URL at which to access the login window to Unified Manager web UI An assigned user name (umadmin) A password for the user umadmin You can specify the following maintenance user information: An address at which the user umadmin can receive alerts and AutoSupport messages The host name of the associated SMTP mail server If you want to specify a cluster for Unified Manager to manage and monitor, you have the following information available about that cluster: Host name or cluster management IP address The host name is the FQDN or short name that Unified Manager uses to connect to the cluster. This host name must resolve to the cluster-management IP address. The cluster-management IP address must be the cluster-management LIF of the admin Storage Virtual Machine (SVM). If you use a node-management LIF, the operation fails. The type of protocol (HTTP or HTTPS) that can be configured on the cluster and the port number of the cluster The port number of the cluster 1. Use a web browser to log in to the Unified Manager web UI, using the IP address or URL, the umadmin user name, and password that you assigned to umadmin during the installation procedure. 2. In the Unified Manager Initial Setup dialog box, choose Yes to enable AutoSupport capabilities and click Continue.

23 Configuring after installation 23 While enabling AutoSupport is a best practice, it is not mandatory. If you do not enable AutoSupport when configuring the initial setup, you can enable it later using the Setup Options dialog box. 3. Type an address for umadmin, the SMTP server host name, and any additional SMTP options, and click Save. The Get Started area appears. 4. To add clusters for monitoring, click Add Cluster. Adding a cluster enables Unified Manager to monitor your cluster components, but alert notifications are not sent until they are configured. After you finish If you choose not to add clusters while configuring initial settings, you can configure additional options, such as alerts and thresholds, and then add clusters for monitoring. Configuring your environment after initial setup After you perform initial setup of the software, there are several configuration tasks that you might want to perform before you start monitoring your clusters, such as adding users, enabling user authentication, and adding alerts. Configuring Unified Manager to send alert notifications You can configure Unified Manager to send notifications that alert you about events in your environment. Before notifications can be sent, you must configure several other Unified Manager options. You must have the OnCommand Administrator role. About this task After deploying Unified Manager and completing the initial configuration, you should consider configuring your environment to trigger alerts and generate notification s or SNMP traps. 1. Configure notification settings on page 24 If you want alert notifications sent when certain events occur in your environment, you must supply an address from which the alert notification can be sent. If your configuration uses an SMTP server for authentication, then you must provide the user name and password for the server. If you want to use SNMP traps, you can select that option and provide the necessary information. 2. Enable remote authentication on page 24 If you want remote LDAP or Active Directory users to access the Unified Manager instance and receive alert notifications, then you must enable remote authentication. 3. Add authentication servers on page 26 If you enable remote authentication, then you must identify authentication servers. 4. Edit global threshold settings on page 27

24 24 OnCommand Unified Manager 6.2 You can modify the threshold settings for aggregates, volumes, and certain types of protection relationships. These settings determine when an event should be generated, which can affect when an alert notification is sent. 5. Add users on page 29 You can add several different types of local or remote users and assign specific roles. When you create an alert, you assign a user to receive the alert notifications. 6. Add alerts on page 31 After you have added the address for sending notifications, added users to receive the notifications, configured your network settings, and configured SMTP and SNMP options needed for your environment, then you can assign alerts. Related concepts What AutoSupport does on page 7 Configuring notification settings You can configure the settings for the Unified Manager server to send alert notifications when an event is generated or when it is assigned to a user. You can configure the corresponding mail server to be used and various notification mechanisms for example, alert notifications can be sent as s or SNMP traps. The following information must be available: address from which the alert notification is sent Host name, user name, password, and default port to configure the SMTP server SNMP version, trap destination host, outbound trap port, and community to configure the SNMP trap You must have the OnCommand Administrator or Storage Administrator role. 1. Click Administration > Setup Options. 2. In the Setup Options dialog box, click General Settings > Notification. 3. Configure the appropriate settings. You can specify the address and SMTP server from which the alert notifications are sent, and enter the SNMP trap settings. Tip: If the host name of the SMTP server cannot be resolved, you can specify the IP address of the SMTP server instead of the host name. Enabling remote authentication You can enable remote authentication, using either Open LDAP or Active Directory, so that the management server can communicate with your authentication servers and so that users of the authentication servers can use Unified Manager to manage the storage objects and data. You must have the OnCommand Administrator role.

25 Configuring after installation 25 About this task If remote authentication is disabled, remote users or groups can no longer access Unified Manager. The only two supported remote authentication methods are Active Directory and Open LDAP. LDAPS is not supported. 1. Click Administration > Setup Options. 2. In the Setup Options dialog box, click Management Server > Authentication. 3. Select Enable Remote Authentication. 4. In the Authentication Service field, select either Active Directory or Open LDAP. If you are using Active Directory as the authentication service, enter the following information: Authentication server administrator name (using one of following formats): domainname\username Bind Distinguished Name (using appropriate LDAP notation) Administrator password Base distinguished name (using the appropriate LDAP notation) If you are using Open LDAP as the authentication service, you can enter the following information: Bind distinguished name (using appropriate LDAP notation) Bind password Base distinguished name If authentication of an Active Directory user takes a long time or times out, the authentication server is probably taking a long time to respond. Disabling support for nested groups in Unified Manager might reduce the authentication time. 5. Optional: Add authentication servers and test the authentication. 6. Click Save and Close. Disabling nested groups from remote authentication If you have remote authentication enabled, you can disable nested group authentication so that only individual users and not group members can remotely authenticate to Unified Manager. You might disable nested groups when you want to improve Active Directory authentication response time. You must be logged in as an Active Directory domain user to perform this task. Logging in as an Active Directory administrator is not required. About this task Disabling support for nested groups in Unified Manager might reduce the authentication time. If nested group support is disabled and if a remote group is added to Unified Manager, individual users must be members of the remote group to authenticate to Unified Manager.

26 26 OnCommand Unified Manager Click Administration > Setup Options. 2. In the Setup Options dialog box, click Management Server > Authentication. 3. In the Authentication Service field, select Others. 4. In the Member field, change the member information from member: : to member. 5. Click Save and Close. Adding authentication servers You can add authentication servers and enable remote authentication on the management server to enable remote users within the authentication server to access Unified Manager. The following information must be available: Host name or IP address of the authentication server Port number of the authentication server You must have enabled remote authentication and configured your authentication service so that the management server can authenticate remote users or groups in the authentication server. You must have the OnCommand Administrator role. About this task If the authentication server that you are adding is part of a high-availability pair (using the same database), you can also add the partner authentication server. This enables the management server to communicate with the partner when one of the authentication servers is unreachable. 1. Click Administration > Setup Options. 2. In the Setup Options dialog box, click Management Server > Authentication. 3. In the Servers area, click Add. 4. In the Add Authentication Server dialog box, specify either the host name or IP address of the server, and the port details. 5. Click Add. Result The authentication server that you added is displayed in the Servers area. After you finish Perform a test authentication to confirm that you are able to authenticate users in the authentication server that you added.

27 Configuring after installation 27 Testing the configuration of authentication servers You can validate the configuration of your authentication servers to ensure that the management server is able to communicate with them. You can validate by searching for a remote user or group from your authentication servers and authenticate them using the configured settings. You must have enabled remote authentication and configured your authentication service so that the OnCommand Unified Manager server can authenticate the remote user or group. You must have added your authentication servers so that the management server can search for the remote user or group from these servers and authenticate them. You must be assigned the OnCommand Administrator role to perform this task. About this task If the authentication service is set to Active Directory and if you are validating the authentication of remote users who belong to the primary group of the authentication server, information about the primary group is not displayed in the authentication results. 1. Click Administration > Setup Options. 2. In the Setup Options dialog box, click Management Server > Authentication. 3. In the Authentication Setup Options dialog box, click Test Authentication. 4. In the Test User dialog box, specify the user name and password of the remote user or group, and then click Test. If you are authenticating a remote group, you must not enter the password. Editing global threshold settings You can configure global threshold conditions for capacity, growth, Snapshot reserve, quotas, and inodes to monitor your aggregate and volume size effectively. You can also edit the settings for generating events for exceeding lag thresholds. About this task Global threshold settings apply to all objects with which they are associated, such as aggregates, volumes, and so forth. When thresholds are crossed, an event is generated and, if alerts are configured, an alert notification is sent. Threshold defaults are set to recommended values, but you can modify them to generate events at intervals to meet your specific needs. When thresholds are changed, events are generated or obsoleted in the next monitoring cycle. Global threshold settings are accessible from the Setup Options dialog box. You can also modify threshold settings for individual objects, from the inventory page or the details page for that object. Choices Configuring global aggregate threshold values on page 28 You can edit the threshold settings for capacity, growth, and Snapshot copies for all aggregates to track any threshold breach.
