Managing SIMs

Enabling or Disabling SIM Reporting

The Optional Operation window can be used to enable CUs to report SIMs (service information messages) to hosts, or prevent CUs from reporting SIMs to hosts. For detailed information about SIMs, see 0.

To change whether CUs can report SIMs to hosts:

1.Ensure that the Storage Navigator main window is in Modify mode.

For detailed information about how to do this, please refer to Storage Navigator User's Guide.

2.Ensure that the Optional Operation window is displayed.

3.Select LDKC in the tree.

The list shows you whether each CU can report SIMs (see Figure 5-7).

4.Do either of the following to change setting on whether CUs can report SIMs:

To change the setting for all CUs, right-click LDKC in the tree, and then select Change SIM Report from the pop-up menu.

To change the setting for one or more (but not all) CUs, select and right-click one or more CUs in the list, and then select Change SIM Report from the pop-up menu.

The Preview list displays the changes that you have made. Note, however, that the changes have not been applied to the storage system.

5.See the Preview list to verify the changes.

If you want to cancel a change, right-click the change and then select Delete.

Note: When you right-click the Preview list, you will find a command named Modify. This command is grayed out and therefore cannot be used.

6.Select Apply to apply the changes.

Note: If an error occurs, the rightmost column of the Preview list displays the error code. To view detailed information about the error, right-click the error code and then select Error Detail. An error message appears and gives you detailed information about the error.
