How to Use the XSCF Web

This chapter describes how to use the XSCF Web.


9.1 Overview of the XSCF Web

The XSCF Web uses https and the SSL/TLS protocols for connection to the server connected to a user network and for web-based support of server status display, server operation control, and configuration information display.

When a configured user establishes a connection with a web browser to the XSCF Web from a client terminal and logs in with an XSCF user account, either a tree index of available pages or another such page is displayed. Select the target page, such as the device status page. For details on creating the user account, see Chapter 2.

TABLE 9-1 outlines each page.


TABLE 9-1 XSCF Web Pages

Basic Page

Description

Login page

XSCF Web console login page. Log in with an XSCF user account from the login page.

Masthead frame

The page on the upper part of the screen. The masthead frame displays the user account name specified at login, the connected host name, and so on. When you log out from the masthead frame, you are returned to the login page.

Menu frame
(Tree frame)

In the page displayed by default after login, there is a frame of the tree navigator to select each page.

There are the following three kinds of tree navigators.

- Menu; The menu of various settings, operations, and state displays that are displayed in the tree.

- Physical; Physical components of the server are displayed in the tree

- Logical; Logical components of each domain are displayed in the tree

Main page

A generic name of the detailed page located at the right of the screen. When you select an item from the menu in the tree frame, the target page is displayed here.

Event frame

(Monitor message frame)

A page that displays the monitoring message located under the screen.

Frame displaying the entire system events.

As for the monitor message frame, the content of the display is regularly refreshed. An initial value at refreshing intervals is 60 seconds. You can change the interval value on the same frame.

Status display

Page displaying the status of the entire system and the domain status. The page display includes the External I/O expansion Unit status.

System/domain operation

Page for operations for the entire system and individual domains. When a setting item is selected by the menu, a target page is displayed. The pages include pages for power operations, domain configuration management, and DR operations.

XSCF settings

Pages for making XSCF operation settings. When a setting item is selected by the tree frame menu, a target page is displayed.

Utility pages

Pages such as firmware update, remote maintenance service, XSCF reset, and XSCF switch (M8000/M9000 servers only).

Log display

Page displaying logs. Error logs, power logs, event logs, console logs, and other logs are displayed.

Standby side page (M8000/M9000 servers only)

Page is displayed when you login to standby Unit.
This page is included for XSCF switch and log collection.


The following figures show examples of these pages in a web browser.

9.2 Start the XSCF Web

This section describes how to start the XSCF Web console with the XSCF Web. To use the XSCF Web, log in via an XSCF-LAN port. This connection cannot be established from a serial port.



Note - The browser window for the XSCF Web is called the XSCF Web console.


9.2.1 Prerequisites

Some settings are disabled in the initial settings of the XSCF Web. To use this function, advance configuration is required as follows:

For details on the settings, see Chapter 2.

9.2.2 Supported Browsers

TABLE 9-2 lists the web browsers supported by the XSCF Web. To use functions in any of the following web browsers, enable the appropriate settings.


TABLE 9-2 Supported Browsers

Browser

Version

Microsoft® Internet Explorer

6.0 and later

Firefox (Oracle Solaris 10)

2.0 and later


The first firmware to support the newer entry-level server is the XCP 1080 firmware. For specific information about minimum OS and firmware requirements, see the latest version of the Product Notes (no earlier than the XCP 1080 edition) for your server.

9.2.3 Functions to be Enabled on the Browser

The following functions are necessary for the browser.

1. Secure Socket Layer Protocol (SSL) Ver. 3,
Transport Layer Security (TLS) Ver. 1

2. JavaScript enabled

3. Cookies enabled for session management

9.2.4 Specifying the URL

When specifying the URL, specify the IP address configured with XSCF or the XSCF host name as the root directory.

Example: URL https://192.168.111.111/ (Note: The IP address of XSCF is input by number)

Alternatively, https://XSCF-host-name/ (Note: Not the host name of a domain)



Note - At the beginning of communication, the browser may request confirmation of a certificate. In such cases, check the contents, and accept the certificate.



9.3 Logging In and Out of the XSCF Web

This section describes how to connect the XSCF Web console.

9.3.1 Logging in to XSCF

The XSCF Web pages are connected by login from the top page. When login is successful, the default page is displayed. In the default page, the tree frame to select each page and one page are displayed.

If Authentication Fails

If login fails, a message indicating that login failed is displayed. Further, event and audit logs are collected.

9.3.2 Access Status Monitoring

The XSCF Web monitors the accounts of XSCF users logged in to XSCF. After successful login to XSCF, if no access is made for a certain period, an authentication timeout occurs and the XSCF Web logs out the user. If the XSCF Web is accessed after the authentication timeout, a dialog box indicating the timeout is displayed and then the top page is displayed. To use the XSCF Web again, log in to XSCF again. The authentication timeout setting can be changed. The authentication timeout is 10 minutes by default. The monitoring interval ranges from 1 to 255 minutes. You can set the monitoring interval ranges at the [Menu]-[Settings]-[Autologout] page.

9.3.3 Logging Out From XSCF

To exit the XSCF Web, log out by selecting "logout" in the page on XSCF Web console.
