About the Navisphere Host Agent
The host agent registers the server’s HBA (host bus adapter) with the
attached storage system when the host agent service starts. This action
sends the initiator records for each HBA to the storage system. Initiator
records are used to control access to storage-system data. For legacy
storage systems, the host agent will send the initiator records only if
Access Logix™ software is installed.
The agent can then retrieve information from the storage system
automatically at startup or when requested by Manager or CLI.
The host agent can also:
Š Send drive mapping information to the attached CLARiiON®
storage systems.
Š Monitor storage-system events and can notify personnel by email,
page, or modem when any designated event occurs.
Š Retrieve LUN WWN (world wide name) and capacity information
from Symmetrix® storage systems.
The host agent runs on servers attached to CX3–series and CX–series. It also
runs on servers attached to AX-series storage systems that have been upgraded
to Navisphere Manager, that is, that have the Navisphere Manager enabler
installed.
