Verifying hardware status

To view status of a hardware component, select the component and review its properties page. See the HP P6000 Command View online help for detailed procedures.

Storage system identity information

The Controller Enclosure Properties page, General tab lists information about your storage system, including model, product number, and serial numbers.

Remote service test

The remote service test sends a management event for the selected storage system. HP remote services, such as WEBES, can use the event to test that HP P6000 Command View notification is working properly. The test does not change the functionality of HP P6000 Command View, nor its response to events. The test is solely for HP P6000 Command View interaction with external HP support tools.

When a test is performed for a storage system, HP P6000 Command View also writes an event to the Windows Application Event Log and cvseh*.log files (if configured to do so) and sends an SNMP trap to hosts that are configured for host notification.

You can start the test from:

•The System Options page

•The Field Service Options page

•The SNMP/Event Log Notification Options page

To run the test from the System Options page:

1.In storage systems point of view navigation pane, select the storage system. The Initialized Storage System page opens.

2.Click System Options.

The system options menu appears.

3.Under Service, select Perform remote service test. The Perform Remote Service Test page opens.
