Using the Storage Console

See Section 2.5.9, Setup and Installation for UnixWare* for DMI installation details.

4.2.1.4SNMP Management

Select this option to install the SNMP Extension Agent for SRCU31. This allows the SRCU31 subsystem to be managed from an SNMP Console such as HP OpenView Network Node Manager. An SNMP Service must already be installed on the machine before the Extension Agent will load and function. Install the SRCU31 SNMP Extension Agent using the procedure below.

SNMP Installation for NT Server

Note: You must have administrative level permissions to install SRCU31 SNMP software.

1.Insert the SRCU31 CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive. (If the RAID Installer Menu does not appear, then run the setup.exe file that resides at: <CD-ROMroot>\os_setup\winnt\setup.exe on the CD-ROM).

2.Click on the Setup button and follow the prompts to the Preselected Components window.

3.Three components in the Preselected Components window below are preselected. See Figure 4-1. If the RAID device drivers, RAID monitor or local or remote storage console are already installed, then uncheck the appropriate boxes. If the RAID device drivers, RAID monitor or local or remote storage console are not installed, then proceed to step 4.

4.Select the SNMP Management checkbox to install the SNMP Management agent. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete installation.

SNMP Installation for NetWare

4.2.2Using Intel Server Control (ISC) to Monitor RAID Events

Intel Server Control (ISC) is a server-management tool targeted for the departmental LAN Environment, such as file, print, and/or application servers. ISC is provided with the CD that ships with your Intel server baseboard. ISC has many server-based monitoring and management functions, however, this section focuses on its ability to monitor events from the SRCU31. A brief overview of ISC is provide below followed by instructions on viewing RAID events from the SRCU31 via ISC. Use the documentation provided with your Intel server board for detailed instructions on installing and using ISC.

4.2.2.1Overview of ISC

ISC uses the Desktop Management Interface (DMI) 2.0 framework to manage Windows NT, NetWare, and UnixWare server hardware components. ISC provides real-time monitoring and alerting for server hardware sensors. ISC has two main software components:
