Discovery Experience with IBM Storage

[SNFan]

Hi - Has anyone successfully used (CIM) discovery against the following SAN gear? Any experiences to share?

• IBM V7000
• IBM XIV
• IBM SVC
• IBM Flash 840

[marius_horja]

Awesome! Thanks a lot for your replay ! I am in process of implement and test discovery. (i will ship a TON of beers after Discovery will work )

I imported .xml file who worked like a charm.

I run Discovery after, on 3 SVC Clusters.

On Ecc I receive an Error on SMI -Storage Server:   The <a href='discovery_sensor.do?sys_id=3101674e0f1f7904bf51059ce1050eb2'>sensor</a>'s major version = 1 while its <a href='discovery_probes.do?sys_id=null'>related probe</a>'s major version =

In this ECC Error i have also an attachment of 6 MB called payload.txt and contains something like below:

On discovery log i can see below error:

Error       Sensor error when processing <a href='ecc_queue.do?sys_id=0350a6c20f9c8600bf51059ce1050efe'><u>CimProbe/10.xx.92.xxx</u></a>: The <a href='discovery_sensor.do?sys_id=3101674e0f1f7904bf51059ce1050eb2'>sensor</a>'s major version = 1 while its <a href='discovery_probes.do?sys_id=null'>related probe</a>'s major version =

and 2 warnings:

Warning       CIMOM information not provided. Skipped CI.       MultiProbe

IBMTSSVC_Cluster{CreationClassName='IBMTSSVC_Cluster',Name='000002006041C62A:000002006041C62A'}.CIM_HostedShare.* - CIM_HostedShare - CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: CIM_HostedShare       CimProbe

Do you have a modified sensor also ? Or have any ideea what's the problem ?

payload.txt some contain:

Probes used:

[stevefrancis]

Did you add a new classifier after my first response?   If so, did you delete it?   I don't have a sensor with the sys_id 3101674e0f1f7904bf51059ce1050eb2.

You shouldn't need to modify any sensors.   We're just trying to get the right probes triggered (storage pools, file shares, etc.)

[marius_horja]

I wasn't been able to add the new classifier and i imported the provided update set. I perform a post check to see if everything looks ok in CI Classification SMI Storage Server, and after performed some Discovery.

Can you please let me know if in: SMI - Storage Server, CIM Queries Tab do you have something in plus or something different that:

controllerForLunAssociations       CIM_ProtocolControllerForUnit.*      

diskDrives       ${instance}.CIM_SystemDevice{{ResultClass:'CIM_DiskDrive'}}.*      

diskMedia       $(diskDrives).CIM_MediaPresent{{ResultClass:'CIM_StorageExtent',Primordial='true'}}.*

Yah, that's exactly what I have.

Where does the "sensor" link in the log take you?

Did you happen to look to see if the device was discovered?
