Figure 69 NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager Array Manager Adding Storage Arrays to the Array Manager You can add storage arrays in two ways: Discovering storage arrays automatically Scan the storage network by subnet or range of subnets. See Discovering Storage Arrays Automatically. Adding storage arrays manually Individually add storage arrays based on their controller DNS names or controller IP addresses. See Adding Storage Arrays Manually on page 35. Discovering Storage Arrays Automatically Automatically scanning large storage array environments reduces the overhead of manually adding multiple arrays one-at-a-time. You can scan for storage arrays at any time, including after storage arrays have been added to the Array Manager. Scans do not report storage arrays already added to the Array Manager. A scan identifies whether a storage array has a password in the storage management software. A scan reports the following information about the storage arrays and saves the information in the storage management software. If the Array Manager does not discover the information during a scan, The Array Manager reports the storage array as unavailable. o o o o o o Name of the storage array Status of the storage array IP addresses of controller A and controller B World Wide Name of the storage array Firmware version of the controllers NVSRAM version of the storage array NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide 31

Scanning the Network NOTE A scan might take up to 10 minutes. 1. In the Commands pane in the bottom-left corner of the Array Manager, click Discover Arrays. The Discover Storage Arrays dialog box appears. Figure 70 Discover Storage Arrays Dialog Box 2. In the IP start and IP end text boxes, type the beginning IP address and the ending IP address of the range of storage arrays to discover. You must enter the complete beginning and ending controller IP addresses. The Array Manager verifies the input to ensure that the format is valid. If either the beginning controller IP address or the ending controller IP address is invalid, an error message appears. 3. Click Discover. The Array Manager performs the following actions: Scans the network for the storage arrays in the subnet or range of subnets Determines whether a storage array has a password in the storage management software The Discovered Storage Arrays table shows the storage arrays with IP addresses within the specified subnet or range of subnets. Storage arrays that have already been added to the Array Manager appear in italic typeface, and are not available for selection. 32 NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide

To add all storage arrays, select the Name box. 5. Click Add. 6. To close the Discover Storage Arrays dialog box at any time, click Close. NOTE If you close the Discover Storage Arrays dialog box before you add the storage arrays to the Array Manager, all storage array information is lost. Sorting Storage Arrays You can sort the columns in the Discovered storage arrays table in either ascending or descending order. To sort the Discovered storage arrays table, click in the table column heading. An arrow appears in the table column heading, as shown in Figure 71. To sort in ascending order, click in the column heading. To sort in descending order, click in the column heading. Adding Global Storage Array Settings Global storage array settings are the user-assigned tag keys and tag values that identify the properties of the storage arrays in the Array Manager. You can also enter a password for a storage array. NOTE The password must match the password for the storage array in the storage management software. NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide 33

You can either add the global storage array settings now, or you can wait until after the storage array has been added to the Array Manager. 1. In the lower-right corner of the Discover Storage Arrays dialog box, expand the Global Storage Array Settings pane. Figure 72 Discover Storage Arrays Global Storage Array Settings The Global Storage Arrays Settings text boxes appear. Figure 73 Discovered Storage Arrays Global Storage Array Settings 2. Go to Appendix A, Automatically Scanning and Discovering Storage Arrays, on page 114 to select and add discovered storage arrays according to their combinations of passwords, tag keys, and tag values. No storage arrays have a password, and some or all discovered storage arrays have different tag key and tag value combinations go to Table 4 on page 114 in Appendix A. All discovered storage arrays have the same password, and some or all discovered storage arrays have different tag key and tag value combinations go to Table 5 on page 116 in Appendix A. Some discovered storage arrays have different passwords and different tag key and tag value combinations go to Table 6 on page 118 in Appendix A. 34 NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide

Adding Storage Arrays Manually You can manually add individual storage arrays one-at-a-time based on the DNS names or controller IP addresses. You must use valid DNS names or IPv4 IP addresses. You cannot use IPv6 IP addresses. 1. In the Commands pane in the bottom-left corner of the Array Manager, click Add Array. The Add Storage Array dialog box appears. Figure 74 Add Storage Array Dialog Box 2. In the IP start and IP end text boxes, type the beginning IP address and the ending IP address of the range of storage arrays to discover.

If either the beginning controller IP address or the ending controller IP address is invalid, an error message appears. NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide 35

Adding the Storage Array to the Array Manager You can add the storage array to the Array Manager now or after you have entered the password, tag assignments, or both the password and the tag assignments. To add the password before adding the storage array to the Array Manager, go to Adding the Password for the Storage Array on page 37. To add tag assignments before adding the storage array to the Array Manager, go to Adding Storage Array Tag Assignments for the Storage Array on page 37. To add the storage array to the Array Manager, perform the following actions. 1. In the Add Storage Array dialog box, click Add. a. The Array Manager searches for the storage array and performs the following actions: When the Array Manager cannot find the storage array, or when the IP addresses for controller A and controller B are not valid, the Add Device message appears. Figure 75 Add Device Failed to Connect When the Array Manager already manages the storage array or one of the controllers of the storage array, the Add Device message appears. Figure 76 Add Device Address is Duplicate or Is Already Being Managed When the Array Manager adds the storage array to the Array Manager, the Successfully added message appears on the bottom of the Add Storage Array dialog box. b. When the search is successful, the Array Manager adds the storage array. 2. To close the Discover Storage Arrays dialog box, click Close. The storage array appears in the All Storage Arrays list in the left pane of the Array Manager.

Array Manager Commands Section The Commands pane in the bottom-left corner of the Array Manager contains the following commands. Add Array Manually add storage arrays to the Array Manager in the Array Manager. Discover Arrays Automatically scan and discover all storage arrays simultaneously based on a range of controller IP addresses. Edit Change storage array properties. Refresh Refresh the information in the Array Manager. Add Panel Create panels to organize and classify storage arrays based on common tag keys and tag values. Manage Tags Manage tag keys and tag values for storage arrays. Remove Remove storage arrays from the Array Manager. Storage Array Properties When you add a storage array, either by scanning and discovering it automatically or by adding it manually, you must configure two properties: Storage array password Match the storage array s password in the Array Manager to the storage array s password in the storage management software. Storage array tag assignments Assign tag keys and tag values to the storage arrays, or add the storage array without tag keys and tag values. The decision tables and procedures in Appendix A, Automatically Scanning and Discovering Storage Arrays, on page 114 and Appendix B, Manually Adding Storage Arrays, on page 120 provide detailed instructions for configuring passwords, designating storage array management, and assigning tag keys and tag values when you add storage arrays to the Array Manager. Storage Array Passwords When you either scan the network to discover storage arrays automatically or add a storage array manually, the Array Manager identifies storage array passwords in the storage management software that must be added to the Array Manager. You can enter a password when you add the storage array. You also can enter, change, or remove a password after you have added the storage array. For the Array Manager to recognize a password as valid, the password in the Array Manager must match the password in the storage management software. If the passwords do not match, the Array Manager shows the password status as Invalid. The Password Status column in the Array Manager shows whether the password in the Array Manager is valid or invalid or whether the storage array does not have a password. Figure 79 on page 41 shows the password icons and statuses. The following tables provide detailed information about adding the storage array passwords to the Array Manager when you add the storage arrays to the Array Manager. o Table 5, When All Storage Arrays Have the Same Password, on page 116 o Table 6, When Some Storage Arrays Have the Same Password, and Some Storage Arrays Have Different Passwords, on page 118 40 NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide

When the storage array has a password in the storage management software, you can add the storage array to the Array Manager without the password, and then add and verify it later in the Array Manager. o o Managing Storage Array Passwords on page 49 describes how to add passwords after storage arrays are added to the Array Manager. Verifying Storage Array Passwords on page 49 describes how to verify that the password in the Array Manager matches the password in the storage management software. If a password is incorrect, the Array Manager shows the password status as Invalid. You can remove the password or change the password after the storage array has been added to the Array Manager. When the Array Manager shows no password for a storage array, the Array Manager verifies that the storage management software database contains no password for the storage array. You can add a storage array password to the Array Manager and then add that password to the storage management software. Until the Array Manager verifies that the passwords match, the Array Manager shows the password status as Invalid. Figure 79 Password Status Icons Password status icon Password status Valid password No password Invalid password Organizing the Storage Array Structure in the Array Manager You can use tag keys and tag values to customize the way storage arrays appear in the Array Manager, and you can assign the storage arrays to panels to specify where and how storage arrays appear in the All Storage Arrays panel. Adding Tag Keys and Tag Values to a Storage Array To organize your storage arrays by common properties, you can create and add tag keys and tag values. You can create and add tag keys and tag values either when you first add a storage array to the Array Manager or after the storage array has been added to the Array Manager. To add and assign tag keys and tag values when you add a storage array to the Array Manager, go to Adding Global Storage Array Settings on page 33. To add and assign tag keys and tag values after a storage array has already been added to the Array Manager, go to Adding Tag Keys and Tag Values on page 55.

Table 2 Tag Key and Tag Value Association Matrix Element Association Element A tag key must be associated with a tag value A tag key can be associated with multiple tag values A tag value can be associated with multiple tag keys A storage array can be associated with multiple tag keys and tag values After a storage array has been added to the Array Manager and tag keys and tag values have been assigned to the storage array, you can edit the storage array to add, change, and remove tag keys and tag values. Managing Storage Array Tag Assignments on page 51 describes how to perform the following tasks for tag keys and tag values: Add tag keys and tag values, and assign them to a storage array. The new tag key and tag value are associated only with the storage array to which they are assigned, but they are available for assignment to any other storage array. Remove a tag key and tag value from a storage array. NOTE Removing a tag key and tag value removes their association with the storage array to which they were assigned, but the tag key and the tag value remain in the storage management software. The tag keys and tag values are available for assignment to other storage arrays. Organizing Storage Arrays in Panels To arrange your storage arrays in a logical structure, you can group them in panels in the All Storage Arrays panel. To add a panel, the tag key and the tag value for the panel must have been assigned to at least one existing storage array. You can assign a storage array with multiple tag keys and tag values to multiple panels. Managing Storage Array Tags on page 54 describes how to manage the tag keys and tag values of a storage array in a panel. To create panels, go to Storage Array Panels on page 61.

Figure 86 Managed Storage Arrays Right Pane 3. In the Details section, click Edit. The Edit Storage Array dialog box appears, as shown in Figure 85. Changing the DNS Names or IP Addresses of a Storage Array If network configuration changes require corresponding changes to controller IP addresses of a storage array that was scanned, discovered, and added to the Array Manager, the storage array state in the Array Manager changes from Available to Unavailable. If the DNS names or controller IP addresses in the Array Manager for a storage array do not match the corresponding DNS names or controller IP addresses in the storage management software, the Array Manager shows the storage array status as Invalid. NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide 47

You must update the Array Manager to reflect the controller IP address changes and return the storage array state to Available. Both the old IP addresses and the corresponding new IP addresses are stored in the storage management software. You can update DNS names or controller IP addresses in two ways. When you do not know which storage arrays have changed or what the new controller IP addresses are, perform an automatic rescan. To make multiple changes at one time, you can perform an automatic rescan on a network or a subnet. For a small number of changes, and you know what the changes are, you can manually change the DNS names or the controller IP addresses of individual storage arrays, and then perform a scan to update the Array Manager. NOTE Change the DNS names or controller IP addresses in the Array Manager only when necessary to match the corresponding DNS names or controller IP addresses in the storage management software. If the DNS names or controller IP addresses in the Array Manager do not match the DNS names or controller IP addresses in the storage management software, the Array Manager shows the storage array status as Invalid. Automatically Rescanning the Storage Network A rescan identifies all changed storage arrays, regardless of the number of changes, updates the Array Manager, and returns to storage arrays states to Available. Both the old controller IP addresses and the corresponding new controller IP addresses are stored in the database. Reports generated after the scan are based on the new storage array configurations. Discovering Storage Arrays Automatically on page 31 describes how to scan the storage network automatically. Manually Changing the DNS Names or Controller IP addresses You can manually change individual DNS names or controller IP addresses and rescan the storage network so that the Array Manager detects the changes and generates reports based on the new storage array configuration. The manual scan also detects whether the storage array has a password in the storage management software. Figure 79 on page 41 shows the password icons and their statuses in the Array Manager. NOTE No response time performance information is lost during the change of controller IP addresses 1. In the left pane of the Array Manager, expand the All Storage Arrays folder.

Asynchronous Mirroring Asynchronous mirroring (ARVM) replicates data from source volumes in a primary storage array to a target volume on a remote storage array. You can manage the synchronization process of creating a consistent data set on a remote storage array. ARVM utilizes a PiT replication strategy and supports both iscsi and Fibre Channel connections between the primary storage array and the remote storage array. Asynchronous Mirroring is available in the Array Manager only when the Asynchronous Mirroring premium feature is enabled in the storage management software. Asynchronous Mirror Groups An asynchronous mirror group can contain several mirrored pairs that you can manage as one entity. A mirrored pair consists of a primary local volume and a secondary remote volume that contain identical copies of the same data. A storage array can contain up to four asynchronous mirror groups. An asynchronous mirror group defines and controls the synchronization settings for all mirrored pairs within the group. Each mirrored pair in an asynchronous mirror group shares the same synchronization settings, primary role and secondary role, and write mode. You can synchronize all mirrored pairs in the asynchronous mirror group at the same time. Write operations are performed to the primary volume and then replicated to the secondary volume based on the synchronization settings of the asynchronous mirror group. The local storage array performs the primary role in the asynchronous mirror group. All volumes added to the asynchronous mirror group on the local storage array perform the primary role in the mirror relationship. The remote storage array performs the secondary role in the asynchronous mirror group. All volumes added to the asynchronous mirror group on the remote storage array perform the secondary role in the mirror relationship. To configure asynchronous mirrors within the NetApp SANtricity Plug-in, both the local array and the remote array must be in the Array Manager. If either array is removed from the Array Manager, any asynchronous mirror groups configured between the two arrays do not appear in the Array Manager. Mirrored Pairs A mirrored pair consists of a relationship between a primary volume on a local primary storage array and a secondary volume on a remote secondary storage array. An asynchronous mirror group is associated with the local storage array and remote storage array in the mirrored pair. Both volumes in a mirrored pair contain identical copies of the same data. An asynchronous mirror group groups mirrored pairs as a single entity and controls their replication settings. An asynchronous mirror group can contain several mirrored pairs that you can manage as one entity. Write operations are performed to the primary volume and then replicated to the secondary volume based on the synchronization settings of the asynchronous mirror group. A mirrored pair can be a member of only one asynchronous mirror group. 104 NetApp SANtricity Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 3.1 Array Manager Installation and User Guide

NOTE If the asynchronous mirror group is not resynchronized, data written to primary volumes after the last synchronization is lost and cannot be recovered. For more information about resynchronization go to Manually Resynch on page 108. After a role change, hosts mapped to the former primary volumes in the asynchronous mirror group do not have write access to the mirrored volumes. Hosts in the asynchronous mirror group that was promoted to the primary role have write access to the mirrored volumes. To change roles, perform the following steps: 1. In the Asynchronous Mirror Groups table, select the asynchronous mirror group. 2. Click Change Roles. The Confirm Change dialog box appears.
