Integration of CentricStor V3.1 in SNMP

12.1.5.4

Monitoring CentricStor using ping and MIB-II

All objects entered in CA Unicenter are automatically moitored by means of ping and
MIB-II. This requires that the agent “Mib2” works with the right community. The
administrator must make any necessary adjustments in the Pollset Browser of CA
Unicenter.

12.1.5.5

Calling the GXCC from the pop-up menu of CA Unicenter

Clicking on the CentricStor icon with the right mouse button causes a pop-up menu to open.
The item at the bottom contains GXCC, which can then be opened directly.

12.1.6

Monitoring of CentricStor V2/V3.0 and V3.1 with CA Unicenter

If an SNMP Management Station is required to monitor a CentricStor V3.1 and a
CentricStor V2/V3.0 simultaneously, the following applies:

On the Management Station the GUI CD of CentricStor V3.1 is read in and the CA
Unicenter add-ons are installed as described. The V3.1 systems can be monitored as
described. The V2/V3.0 systems are initially recognized as SiemensUX systems and can
then be assigned to the class fscCentricStor as described in the documentation for
CentricStor V2/V3.0.

The traps of CentricStor V2/V3.0 are still recognized and prepared by the installed BS2000
part as described in the documentation for CentricStor V2/V3.0. However, GXCC is now
always called with the popup menu which serves and monitors CentricStor V2/V3.0, too.
Only new V3.1 options of GXCC lead to an error message.

CentricStor V2/V3.0 and V3.1 can thus be monitored by the same Management Station with
minor restrictions for GXCC handling of CentricStor V2/V3.0. If you do not want this,
GXTCC (for CentricStor V2/V3.0) can be installed parallel to GXCC (for CentricStor V3.1)
and can be called manually.

12.1.7

Summary

After the activities described above have been performed, a CentricStor system can be
integrated in any SNMP environment, CA Unicenter being supported in particular by instal-
lation scripts and the editing of traps.
