1.2.8 Support Levels

The scope of the storage management functions of this software that can be used varies with the storage device model being used. For this software, the scope of available functions is represented as support levels, which are used as settings of the fault monitoring function and for other purposes. The table below lists the support levels that can be selected.

Y1: Detail information on device internal elements can be displayed.
*1: The protocols using in the device polling are as follows.

Typical Device Name	Protocol Name
ETERNUS DX series ETERNUS SN200 (except model 250M) PRIMERGY BX600 Fibre Channel switch blade Brocade series Brocade VDX series PRIMERGY BX Ethernet Fabric Switch	SNMP
Server node on which Storage Cruiser's agent is already installed	unique protocol
VMware vSphere 4 or later	VMware dedicated protocol
Other than listed above	ping

*2: The "Detect device in subnet" function is not supported by the devices below. Specify and register the IP addresses.

The following devices that firmware version is V20L20 or later:
ETERNUS DX400 series, DX8000 series
Solaris OS, Windows, Linux, HP-UX, AIX server node on which Storage Cruiser's agent is already installed
VMware server node
ETERNUS LT250,LT270
The following switches may not be able to be detected in subnet depending on the firmware version, etc.
ETERNUS SN200 series, Brocade series, PRIMERGY BX600 Fibre Channel switch blade, Brocade VDX series, PRIMERGY BX Ethernet Fabric Switch

*3: For devices supporting SNMP Traps, this function is enabled by creating a SNMP Trap XML definition file.

*4: For devices supporting LAN, ping monitoring is enabled by specifying an IP address at manual embedding.

*5: SNMP Trap transmission must be set for each device. (This software does not automatically make said setting.)

*6: There are concerns in performance information. Refer to the Note in "7.1.1 Performance Information Types".

*7: For NetApp FAS Series. To refer to the performance information that is collected on the NetApp FAS Series, must be linkage with Systemwalker Service Quality Coordinator. Contact Fujitsu Technical Support for details on performance information.

*8: Only as for devices whose firmware version number is 3.0.1 or later, the performance management function is supported.
*9: The automatic registration function is not supported for devices whose firmware version number is 4.0. Revise the firmware version or register manually.
