Prerequisites for monitoring EMC VNX(Block)

emc raid

OpStor uses command line utility (NaviCLI.exe/NaviSecCLI.exe) available as part ofNaviSphere suite of EMC VNX(Block)

  • NaviCLI/NaviSecCLI should be installed in the server in which OpStor is installed.
  • Include the directory containing NaviCLI.exe/NaviSecCLI.exe in the PATH system environment variable. (This is normally C:\Program Files\EMC\Navisphere CLI\ ) by going into My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> Environmental Variables
  • Ensure that OpStor is restarted (shutdown & started) after including NaviCLI/NaviSecCLI in the path. This is required for the latest path changes to take effect for OpStor
  • Now open a command prompt to execute the navicli command to check for the proper response from EMC VNX(Block)
    • Command : navicli -h <array name> getall (for systems with NaviCLI installed)
    • Command : naviseccli -h <array name> -scope 0 -user <storage system username> -password <storage system password> getall (for systems with NaviSecCLI installed)
    • Command: naviseccli -h <array name> -scope 0 -user <storage system username> -password <storage system password> storagepool -list (for systems with NaviSecCLI installed)
    • Command: naviseccli -h <array name> -scope 0 -user <storage system username> -password <storage system password> lun -list (for systems with NaviSecCLI installed)
  • Ensure that, OpStor Installed machine is reachable from the Storage system

Steps to add EMC VNX(BLock) in OpStor

  • In the OpStor client go to Admin Tab –> ‘Discovery’ Tab
  • Provide IP Address of EMC VNX Storage Processor
  • Choose the Device Type as ‘RAID’
  • Choose the Vendor as ‘EMC’
  • Choose the Model as ‘VNX-BLOCK’
  • Provide the NaviSecCLI Username and Password
  • Change the Timeout if needed
  • Click on Add Device
  • Repeat the above procedure to add the second array IP in case of dual Storage Processors

Note : If the Ping facility is disabled for the device, then please uncheck ‘Ping the given IP’ field.
Note : In case of non discovery of the device, please follow the troubleshooting tips displayed in the webclient and try re-adding the device.
