HP 3PAR System Reporter Software - Manual (Page 46)

6. Install the sysrptwebsrv package by mounting the System Reporter CD, changing to the directory
on the CD that includes the rpm packages and running:
rpm --install sysrptwebsrv-3.1-2.i386.rpm
7. Edit the /var/www/cgi-bin/3par-rpts/config.tcl and /var/www/cgi-bin/
3par-policy/config.tcl
files following the directions in those files. If previous versions
of the file were saved, you may keep the previous settings and simply replace the files with
the saved versions. If the configuration files are correct, you should be able to open the web
page
http://hostname/3par .
Once all the tables have been created, the main web page for system reporter should be accessible
at http:///3par, where is the name of the server where Apache and
System Reporter are installed.
Adding Storage Systems
Follow these instructions for adding HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems to be sampled.
1.
Open a Web browser and point it at http:///3par/ where
is the Web server where Apache HTTP Server is installed.
The HP 3PAR System Reporter window appears.
2. Click Policy Settings in the Extras Menu area.
The System Reporter Policies window appears.
NOTE: If you upgraded from a previous version of System Reporter (and you changed the
location of the CLI password directory with that previous release) you must first remove, and
then re-add your HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems.
3. Choose the InServ Systems tab.
4. Click Add InServ.
5. In the Add InServ System to be Sampled window, type the IP Name or address of a storage
server you wish to add, your CLI User name, and CLI Password.
NOTE: If you do not plan on using the capabilities offered by the optionally licensed Adaptive
Optimization feature, you can specify a Browse level access since no special privileges are
required to view reports. However, if you are using Adaptive Optimization to perform system
optimization, you should specify an Edit level user access. Specifying a Super level privilege
is not required or recommended. For HP 3PAR OS 3.1.1 systems, users can have the 3PAR_AO
role instead of the edit role. This role has browse level privileges plus the ability to move
regions between Common Provisioning Groups (CPGs).
6. Check the Use SSL box if the CLI connection should be over SSL.
7. Leave the Skip LD Performance data box checked if you do not need to collect performance
data for Logical Disks (LDs). If you intend to configure Adaptive Optimization for the HP 3PAR
StoreServ Storage, you should uncheck the box since Adaptive Optimization uses LD
performance data.
8. Check the Sample Adaptive Optimization Data box if you want to collect performance statistics
for the optional Adaptive Optimization component. When choosing this option, you must
make sure that the Skip LD Performance data check box is unchecked, otherwise an error
message is generated.
9. You have the option of specifying the amount of time to retain certain types of data or you
can accept the default values:
•
Hours to keep High Res Data -- Specifies the amount of time (in hours) to keep High Res
data.
•
Days to keep Hourly Data -- Specifies the number of days to retain hourly data.
