NOTE:

If a firewall exists between the Remote Web Console computer and the SVP, see

Chapter 2 of the HP P9000 Remote Web Console User Guide. In the section “Setting up
TCP/IP for a firewall”, the RMI port numbers listed are the only direct communication settings
required for the Export Tool.

The Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
To be able to use the Export Tool, you must install Java Runtime Environment on your Windows
or UNIX system. If your system runs Remote Web Console, JRE is already installed on your
system and you can install the Export Tool. If your system does not run Remote Web Console
but contains an appropriate version of JRE, you can install the Export Tool on your system.
The JRE version required for running the Export Tool is the same as the JRE version required
for running Remote Web Console.

A user ID for exclusive use of the Export Tool
Before you can use the Export Tool, you must create a user ID for exclusive use of the Export
Tool. Assign only the Storage Administrator (Performance Management) role to the user ID
for the Export Tool. It is recommended that you do not assign any roles other than the Storage
Administrator (Performance Management) role to this user ID. The user who is assigned to the
Storage Administrator (Performance Management) role can do the following:

Save the monitoring data into files

Change the gathering interval

Start or stop monitoring by the set subcommand

For details on creating the user ID, see the HP P9000 Remote Web Console User Guide.
