• In [Agent Information], set information regarding agent management
(i) Receive SNMP Trap
Select the receiving method in [Receive SNMP Trap]. SNMP trap is information sent from the disk array to
notify the iSM server of state transition of hardware, etc. It is enabled only for disk arrays monitored by
TCP/IP connection.
Don’t Receive: SNMP trap is not received.
Use the SNMP Trap Service: SNMP trap is received via the SNMP trap service.
Receive Directly: The iSM server receives it by using the port 162.
1. When you select [Use the SNMP Trap Service], SNMP Trap Service must be installed. When you select
[Receive Directly], a conflict with application collecting SNMP trap as SNMP Trap Service occurs. In
this case, don’t select [Receive Directly].
2. Disk arrays can be monitored even without SNMP trap being received. Performance may be degraded if
network security is compromised. Therefore, [Don’t Receive] should be selected.
(ii) Remonitoring Check Interval
When a trouble occurs in the connection between iSM server and the disk arrays, iSM server will stop the
monitoring of the disk arrays for a time, and later it will restart monitoring automatically.
In [Remonitoring Check Interval], specify an interval for checking whether the monitoring of disk arrays can be
restarted. The default value is 5 (minutes). A value from 1 to 60 can be specified.
• In [Client Information], specify information regarding the iSM client.
(iii) Connection Port Number
In [Connection Port Number], specify the port number of the iSM server to which the iSM client connects.
For the iSM client, refer to 5.2 “Client Start/Stop” in Part III “Operations”. The default value is 8020. A
value from 1 to 65535 can be specified.
• In [State Monitoring Information], specify information regarding the monitoring of the disk array status.
(iv) Monitoring Interval
In [Monitoring Interval], specify an interval for requesting status monitoring of disk arrays. The default value
is 15 (seconds). A value from 1 to 3600 can be specified.
For status monitoring, refer to 3.2 “State Monitoring” in Part II “Functions”.
(v) Duplicate Nickname Check
Determine whether to make a duplication check on identifiers that are assigned to components in the disk arrays
to be managed by iSM.
In [Duplicate Nickname Check], specify whether or not to execute the duplicated check for the identification
names of the components in the disk arrays that are targets of the iSM management.
Components to be checked in a duplicated manner are as follows:
y Disk Array Name
y Logical Disk Name
