Chapter 6 CIM Solution This chapter describes the Fusion-MPT Common Information Model (CIM) Solution and explains how it is used to monitor storage components, including mirrored and striped volumes, in multiple systems on a network. This chapter contains the following sections: • Section 6.1, "Description" • Section 6.2, "CIM Browser Window Description" • Section 6.3, "CIM Installation Instructions for Windows" • Section 6.4, "CIM Installation Instructions for Linux" 6.1 Description The CIM Solution enables the storage system administrator to monitor storage components in multiple systems on a network. The administrator can use the easy-to-navigate CIM interface to quickly detect storage device failures. The CIM Solution also provides information about the topology of the storage network, controllers, and storage devices. The CIM Solution supports IM and IS volumes and the underlying physical disks in these volumes. The LSI Logic CIM Solution is a CIM-compliant management application for Fusion-MPT mass storage elements. The CIM Solution allows you to connect with devices through a TCP/IP based network and to manage the attached Fusion-MPT controllers, devices, and device drivers. The CIM Solution supports many of LSI Logic SCSI and Fibre Channel controllers and their associated host adapters. These include the LSI53C1020, LSI53C1030, LSI53C1035, LSIFC919, LSIFC919X, LSIFC929, and LSIFC929X. Integrated RAID User's Guide 6-1 Version 1.0 Copyright © 2003 by LSI Logic Corporation.

Description
The CIM Solution enables the storage system administrator to monitor
storage components in multiple systems on a network. The administrator
can use the easy-to-navigate CIM interface to quickly detect storage
device failures. The CIM Solution also provides information about the
topology of the storage network, controllers, and storage devices. The
CIM Solution supports IM and IS volumes and the underlying physical
disks in these volumes.
The LSI Logic CIM Solution is a CIM-compliant management application
for Fusion-MPT mass storage elements. The CIM Solution allows you to
connect with devices through a TCP/IP based network and to manage
the attached Fusion-MPT controllers, devices, and device drivers. The
CIM Solution supports many of LSI Logic SCSI and Fibre Channel
