Storage Management Appliance Software User Guide
If Storage Provisioner and Secure Path Manager were forwarding event
information to the Storage Management Appliance prior to the v2.1 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 v2.1 update, be sure to configure those applications to send information to the
Storage Management Appliance. See the application documentation for detailed
information about this type of configuration.
Note:
The Storage Management Appliance does not receive events from Secure Path
Manager installed on other hosts.
Device Events
Each device identified by an IP discovery must be manually configured to send
event information to the Storage Management Appliance. Most devices send this
information as an SNMP trap.
Supported Devices The Storage Management Appliance can decode SNMP trap
information for some devices and as a result can provide a detailed description of
what happened. Such devices are called supported devices. Supported devices
have a detailed definition for each event type that the device can generate. See the
Storage Management Appliance Software Event Code Definitions Application
Notes for a complete list of supported devices and the event code definitions
available for each device type. This document is available at the following
website:
