SNMP configuration The XP family of disk arrays and the SVS 200 support standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for remotely managing arrays. The SNMP agent on the service processor (SVP) performs error-reporting operations requested by the SNMP manager. SNMP properties are usually set from the SVP but they can also be set remotely using XP Remote Web Console or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software. Refer to the applicable user's guide for procedures. Figure 1 SNMP configuration . XP RAID Manager command devices HP StorageWorks XP RAID Manager manages HP StorageWorks XP Business Copy Software or HP StorageWorks XP Continuous Access Software operations from a host server. To use RAID Manager you must designate at least one LDEV as a command device. This can be done with Remote Web Console or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software. Refer to the applicable user guide for information about how to designate a command device. Creating scripts to configure all devices at once may save you considerable time. Installation roadmap Perform the following actions to install and configure the disk array: 1. Installing and configuring the disk array • Setting the host mode and host group mode for the disk array ports • Setting the system option modes • Configuring the Fibre Channel ports 2. Installing and configuring the host • Loading the operating system and software • Installing and configuring the FCAs • Clustering and fabric zoning • Fabric zoning and LUN security for multiple operating systems 3. Connecting the disk array • Defining the paths • Verifying FCA installation • Verifying device recognition XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for HP-UX 9

SNMP configuration
The XP family of disk arrays and the SVS 200 support standard Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) for remotely managing arrays. The SNMP agent on the service processor (SVP) performs
error-reporting operations requested by the SNMP manager. SNMP properties are usually set from
the SVP but they can also be set remotely using XP Remote Web Console or XP Command View
Advanced Edition Software. Refer to the applicable user's guide for procedures.

XP RAID Manager command devices
HP StorageWorks XP RAID Manager manages HP StorageWorks XP Business Copy Software or HP
StorageWorks XP Continuous Access Software operations from a host server. To use RAID Manager
you must designate at least one LDEV as a command device. This can be done with Remote Web
Console or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software. Refer to the applicable user guide for
information about how to designate a command device.
Creating scripts to configure all devices at once may save you considerable time.
