Installing the Sun StorEdge SMI-S Provider on a Solaris Host (FC and SATA Only) |
The Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider enables Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage Manager Advanced Applications Management Software for SE3500 (ESM-AA) 3.0 and higher to monitor Sun StorEdge 3510 FC and Sun StorEdge 3511 SATA RAID arrays. This solution requires that you install and configure ESM-AA 4.1, the WBEM Solutions J WBEM Server (from the ESM-AA 4.1 Accessory CD), Sun StorEdge Configuration Service version 2.5, and Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider version 2.4.
This chapter provides procedures for installing the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider. Topics covered in this chapter include:
The following components must be installed and configured before installing the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider:

Before installing the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider, perform the following steps:
1. If an older version of the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider is installed, remove it.
See Uninstalling the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider.
2. If an older version of the WSI CIMOM is installed, remove it.
See Uninstalling the WSI CIMOM.
3. If an older version of the Sun StorEdge 3000 Family software is installed, remove it.
See Uninstalling the Software.
a. To check which version of Sun StorEdge Configuration Service is currently installed, perform the following command:
4. Install Sun StorEdge Configuration Service 2.5.
5. Set passwords for the ssconfig, ssadmin, and ssmon users, if they are not already set.
See Users and Passwords.
6. To confirm that you are able to manage a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC or Sun StorEdge 3511 SATA array, launch a Sun StorEdge Configuration Service console and log in using the ssconfig username.
a. To launch a console, enter the following command:
b. To log in as ssconfig, from the File menu, choose Login, select ssconfig from the Login name drop-list, and enter the password.
7. Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable, if it is not already set.
8. Confirm that Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 or higher is installed.
a. Perform the following command:
To install the WSI CIMOM, insert the Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage Manager Advanced Applications 4.1 Management Software for SE3500 CD and enter the following commands:
# cd <path_to_ESM-AA_Accessory_CD> # pkgadd -d . WSIjapi WSIwslib WSIutils WSIjwsrlog WSIjws # pkgadd -d . WSIjwsdoc WSIjwsmof WSImof WSInpi WSIrmicpa |
Note - The Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage Manager Advanced Applications 4.1 Management Software for SE3500 CD is only available to Enterprise Storage Manager customers. |
To install the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider, perform the following commands:
There are several procedures that must be performed following the installation of the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider. Perform the following steps.
1. Edit the file /opt/SUNW3x10a/config.sh to reflect your local configuration.
The key options which might need modification are:
Note - The /opt/SUNW3x10a/config.sh file is read by shell scripts used by the Provider. Changes to the file must follow normal UNIX shell conventions. |
2. To verify that your changes have the correct syntax, perform the following command:
Check for any error messages or incorrect values. (Note that you will see several additional environment variables which are defined automatically by the ‘bash’ shell. These can be ignored.)
3. Ensure that the config.sh file is protected and cannot be read by users other than root:
4. Complete the installation of the provider by performing the following commands:
Note - Execution of the setup.sh script will take several minutes. Do not interrupt it. If setup.sh takes more than 15 minutes to complete or displays excessive error messages, see Troubleshooting. |
5. Configure the ESM to discover storage managed by the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service agent identified in /opt/SUNW3x10a/config.sh.
To discover storage managed by the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service agent, you must specify the complete URL, including the port number specified by the HTTPPort variable in /opt/SUNW3x10a/config.sh.
For example, if the provider is running on a host with IP address 10.1.2.3, using the default HTTPPort value of 25988, you would specify the following URL when the ESM prompts for the “IP Address/DNS Name” of an element to be discovered:
The following commands read the /opt/SUNW3x10a/config.sh file to determine the correct parameters for starting and stopping the CIMOM. Do not use the start_server and stop_server commands provided in the WSI package.
To stop the SMI-S provider, perform the following command:
To start the SMI-S provider, perform the following command:
To uninstall the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider, perform the following commands.
To remove an older version of the WSI CIMOM, perform the following commands:
# pkgrm WSImof WSIjwsmof WSIjwsdoc # pkgrm WSInpi WSIrmicpa WSIjws # pkgrm WSIjwsrlog WSIutils WSIwslib WSIjapi # rm -rf /opt/wsi |
During the execution of the setup.sh script, the following messages might be displayed. These messages are normal and might occur several times each during installation.
WBEMSolutions_ObjectManager.StopService returned 0 /usr/java/bin/java -server -classpath ... Could not connect to the specified CIM Server |
If the following error message is seen, perform the steps below.
2. Remove entries from the CIMOM database via the following commands:
3. Run the setup script again:
4. If you suspect that the CIMOM database is corrupted, perform the following steps:
a. Remove the WSI packages by removing the /opt/wsi directory:
b. If an older version of the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider is installed, remove it.
See Uninstalling the Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 SMI-S Provider.
c. If an older version of the WSI CIMOM is installed, remove it.
See Uninstalling the WSI CIMOM.
e. Edit the config.sh file to reflect your local configuration.
Perform Step 1through Step 3 in Post-Installation Procedures.
If the ESM does not recognize an array, make sure that the array is manageable via the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service console. If it is not visible in the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service console, it will not be accessible to the ESM.
The CIMOM might need to be restarted if it is not running or new arrays are added which are not recognized by the ESM immediately. To restart the CIMOM, perform the following commands:
