4.5 VD800 Virtual Disk Controller

This software supports fault management and management software linkage for the VD800 virtual disk controller.

Hierarchical control processor settings
Softek Storage Cruiser 1.2.1 (hereafter referred to as SSC) Agent is installed on the hierarchical control processor (server node) contained in the VD800.
To monitor the hierarchical control processor as a server node monitored by this software, make the following settings to register the hierarchical control processor with this software:
1. Make a setting in /etc/services.
  SSC Agent communicates with the Management Server through LAN port number 4917 by default.
  Therefore, include this port number in the /etc/services file as shown below to declare use of the port number.
  If no port number is specified, SSC Agent is started with port number 4917.
  Example
  Contents of /etc/services file setting
```
# service name   port number/protocol name
sscruisera       4917/tcp
```
  If the port number is already being used, change the port number to one that is not.
  If changing the port number, however, use the one corresponding to the same service name set on the Management Server.
2. Make a setting in the /etc/hosts file.
  Include an IP address that enables communication with the Management Server (manager).
  In an environment in which IP addresses are converted (such as NAT), specify an IP address that enables communication from the Management Server, instead of the IP address of a server node.
  Example
  Example of /etc/hosts file setting:
```
10.10.10.10 spm-0-ext
```
3. Specify the SSC Agent startup IP address.
  Specify an IP address that enables communication with the Management Server (manager).
  Specify the IP address defined in the /etc/hosts file of b. as the startup address in the following command:
```
# /opt/FJSVssagt/bin/setagtip -i startup IP address
```
  After executing the above command, stop and restart SSC Agent.
  Execute the following commands to stop and restart SSC Agent.
  Stopping SSC Agent:
```
# /opt/FJSVssagt/bin/pstorageagt
```
  Starting SSC Agent:
```
# /opt/FJSVssagt/bin/sstorageagt
```
4. Search for and register the hierarchical control processor.
  Register the hierarchical processor as a server device using the Web Console.
  Specify the SSC agent startup IP address as the IP address which is set during this registration.
