host ports, device ports (physical disk drive ports), and the enclosure. You can also perform actions

See the HP P6000 Command View online help for detailed procedures.

Storage system identity information

The Controller Enclosure Properties page, General tab lists information about your storage system,
including storage system, product number, and serial numbers.

Remote service test

The remote service test sends a management event for the selected storage system. HP remote
services, such as WEBES, can use the event to test that HP P6000 Command View notification is
working properly. The test does not change the functionality of HP P6000 Command View, nor its
response to events. The test is solely for HP P6000 Command View interaction with external HP
support tools.

When a test is performed for a storage system, HP P6000 Command View also writes an event
to the Windows Application Event Log and cvseh*.log files (if configured to do so) and sends
an SNMP trap to hosts that are configured for host notification.

You can start the test from:

The System Options page

The SNMP/Event Log Notification Options page

To run the test from the System Options page:
1.

In storage systems point of view navigation pane, select the storage system.

The Initialized Storage System page opens.
