P4000 CLI
.
Cluster
A cluster is a grouping of storage nodes that create the storage pool from which you create
volumes.
Health Check
The LeftHand Networks Health Check Utility is used to send monitoring log file information from
customer sites to LeftHand Networks for troubleshooting and proactive health monitoring. See
Service Console
.
Hosting Device
A supported Windows ProLiant server that hosts the HP Insight Remote Support Standard
management software, collects event and configuration information from the Managed Systems,
and transmits this information to HP for analysis.
HP Systems Insight
Manager (HP SIM)
HP SIM is a unified server and storage management platform. From a single management console,
administrators can manage their complete HP server and storage environment with a secure
management tool set.
Login Credentials
Login and password parameters passed to the command line interface (P4000 Integration Module)
to authenticate the Centralised Management System with the P4000 Storage System Management
Group.
Managed System
Any system managed by Insight Remote Support, such as servers, desktops, storage systems, and
Remote Insight Boards (RIBs).
Management
Group
A collection of one or more storage nodes which serves as the container within which you cluster
storage nodes and create volumes for storage.
Node
A P4000 SAN is a cluster of Storage Nodes that create the storage pool from which virtualized
volumes are created.
P4000 CLI
The P4000 CLI is the command line interface that is used to interface with the P4000 Storage
Systems from the Hosting Device. The P4000 CLI is installed with Insight Remote Support Advanced.
Note that the P4000 CLI is sometimes referred to as
cliq
, which is the name of the command
used within the P4000 CLI.
Service Console
The Service Console is the legacy software that enabled remote hardware and software support
for P4000 Storage Systems. This functionality is now provided by Insight Remote Support. See
Health Check
.
Virtual Node
The P4000 Virtual SAN Appliance uses captive server disk drives to build a virtual iSCSI SAN
consisting of Virtual Nodes that create the storage pool from which virtualized volumes are
created. Virtual Nodes can be discovered and managed in the same manner as physical Storage
Nodes.
Volume
A logical entity that is made up of storage on one or more storage nodes. It can be used as raw
data storage or it can be formatted with a file system and used by a host or file server.
