SMI-S overview

The ability to enable or disable SMI-S is not available on the HP VC 8Gb 24-Port FC module. The SMI-S was
created by SNIA to standardize storage management solutions. SMI-S replaces multiple disparate managed

object models, protocols, and transports with a single object-oriented model for each type of component in

a storage network. SMI-S enables management applications (such as HP SIM) to support storage devices

from multiple vendors quickly and reliably because they are no longer proprietary. SMI-S detects and

manages storage elements by type, not by vendor.
Users must have storage or domain administrative privileges to configure SMI-S capabilities.

System Log screen

The System Log screen displays logged information of events within Virtual Connect Manager.
To access the System Log screen, click on System Log in the left navigation pane, or select System Log from
the Tools pull-down menu.
Events are logged with the most recent event displayed at the end of the list. Use the scroll bar on the right of

the screen to scroll through the list if it is longer than the display box. When the log reaches maximum

capacity, the oldest logged event is automatically deleted as new events are added.
Click Refresh to display the most current information.
