About Events
Most devices and applications identified by Storage Management Appliance
discoveries generate events that let a storage administrator view status
information of various types.
A discovered device or application forwards information about an event to the
Management Appliance where it is logged. See “ About Logs ,” on page 60 for
more information about available logs.
Application Events
You can configure the following management applications to send event
information to the Management Appliance:
■
HP StorageWorks HSV Element Manager
■
HP StorageWorks HSG Element Manager
■
HP OpenView Storage Provisioner V1.0
■
HP StorageWorks Secure Path Manager V4.0
Installing the Storage Management Appliance Software V2.0 update
automatically configures the HSV and HSG Element Managers to send event
information to the Management Appliance. However, be sure to check that the
Management Appliance IP address is correctly shown in the Event Notification:
Host Options for each storage cell in the HSV Element Manager.
If Storage Provisioner and Secure Path Manager were forwarding event
information to the Management Appliance prior to the V2.0 update, they will
continue to do so after the update without manual configuration.
If you install the Storage Provisioner or Secure Path Manager applications after
the V2.0 update, be sure to configure those applications to send information to the
Management Appliance. See the application documentation for detailed
information about this type of configuration.
Device Events
Each device identified by an IP discovery must be manually configured to send
event information to the Management Appliance. Most devices send this
information as an SNMP trap.
