Chapter 1 SystemWalker/StorageMGR Web Client
This chapter explains the window structure of the SystemWalker/StorageMGR Web client and how to operate the initial window.
1.1 Web Client and Window Structure
SystemWalker/StorageMGR, which provides efficient operation of distributed storage, uses a Web browser for centralized management of storage. The management function offered with Web client of this product is as follows: · Security management · Backup management · SAN management · Space management Each management window is activated from the SystemWalker/StorageMGR initial window. On the initial window the user can define a storage management server, storage server for storage management, and device information.
Figure 1.1 shows the SystemWalker/StorageMGR window structure.
[Figure 1.1 SystemWalker/StorageMGR initial window]
Figure 1.2 shows an example system environment configuration.
1
[Figure 1.2 Example system environment configuration]
The initial window and management windows of SystemWalker/StorageMGR are executed via the Web browser. Therefore, Java Plug-in 1.3.1_01 or newer must be installed in the client. For details of the installation, see Chapter 1.2.12, "Download."
1.2 Initial Window
Activate the initial window by selecting the SystemWalker/StorageMGR URL on the Web browser.
[SystemWalker/StorageMGR URL]
To access the Storage management server by its physical IP address, enter:
http://storage-management-server-physical-IP-address-(:port-number)/swstorage/index.html
To access the Storage management server by its logical IP address (ex. in cluster operation), enter:
http://storage-management-server logical-IP-address (:port-number)/swstorage/index.html
When the default (80) is set as a service target port number in the Web server setup, no port number need be specified. When a value other than the default is set, specify a port number.
2
If Internet Explorer 4.X is used and the window height too low, operation may be abnormal because not all buttons are visible. If this is the case, adjust the window height and repeat the operation (operation is normal when the copyright is displayed completely on the Web browser).
1.2.1 User authentication
When [SystemWalker/StorageMGR URL] is selected on the Web browser, the authentication dialog box is displayed. Enter the name and password of a user or privileged user registered with the SystemWalker/StorageMGR authentication feature (i.e. startup account in SystemWalker/StorageMGR installation), and select [OK].
See Chapter 2, "Authentication Feature Window Operation"for the user registration method and access permission.
If user authentication fails, an error dialog is displayed as shown below. Enter the correct user name and password. · If a user name not registered in the system or an incorrect password is enter, the following error message is
displayed:
· A user name registered in the system was entered, but this user name is either not recorded in the
SystemWalker/StorageMGR authentication system or has not the required write, execute, or read permission.
A display item type, item sequence, and item display width set with a user on the initial window are held for the user and are valid on the window when it is reactivated by the user. The preceding setup is valid when the same user name is used.

Chapter 2 Authentication Feature Window Operation
This chapter describes the Authentication Feature functions of the StorageMGR management and how to use theStorageMGR window.
2.1 Security Management with Authentication Feature
When SystemWalker/StorageMGR Web-GUI is used, Backup management function/space management function/SAN resource management function can be easily done only by the operation of the mouse. Therefore, a careless or accidental click of the mouse can destroy data.
SystemWalker/StorageMGR supports a function (Authentication Feature) to set the following permissions for each user: · Write permission
With this permission, all windows can be operated/displayed. Backup Management/Space management/SAN resource management information can also be changed. This permission is higher than the other two. This permission can be set only for a user belonging to the Administrators group.
· Execute permission With this permission, all windows can be operated/displayed.
· Read permission With this permission, all windows can be displayed but none of them can be operated.
At the end of SystemWalker/StorageMGR-M installation, only users that were defined with startup accounts are registered as authentication feature users. They are not displayed on the authentication feature management window. The write permission is set unconditionally for these startup accounts.
Addition, deletion and access permission changes are possible only for users defined with startup accounts specified during SystemWalker/StorageMGR-M installation.
Only users satisfying the following conditions can use SystemWalker/StorageMGR: · The user name consists of 20 or less alphanumeric characters. · The password consists of 14 or less alphanumeric characters. The Read permission or the Execute permission is given to the user who does not belong to the Administrators group. Afterwards, When a user becomes a member of the Administrators group, that user receives the write permission unconditionally.
Observe the following regarding operation in Windows(R) 2000: · NetBIOS over TCP/IP setup
Make sure NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled. It defaults to enable during Windows(R) 2000 installation. If it is disabled, enable it again in the details setup as follows:
1. On the control panel, open [Network and Dial-up Connections], [Local Area Connection], [Properties]. 2. Select [Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties], and then click on [Properties]. From the General

4.2.2 Description of menu
This chapter explains the enable menu on All View. These commands in this menu are displayed. Moreover when pop-up menu is selected by right clicking on the device, they are displayed and the selection and execution can be possible.
4.2.2.1 File(F)
· Detect Device in Subnet(B) or [Shift]+[F5] The device is detected automatically for the same subnet as the SAN resource management server. When the device has already been supported by the SAN resource management is detected, the device is displayed as an unregistered device in the map. The SAN resource management server internally issues SNMP on the network by the broadcast. It is also possible to detect another subnet at the same time. Please refer to the operator's guide for details.
· Retrieve Information (R) Information managed by the SAN resource management can be retrieved. (When only All View function is selected, and when the device icon is selected, this operation cannot be executed.) The dialog for retrieval of information is displayed. Please select one attribute (device/ Vender ID/product ID/IP address/device management software/WWPN/WWNN/FC port Vender ID/FC port product ID) in "Select Attribute" to retrieve. Please input data in Name Field, which wants to be retrieved. Information is even partially possible. For Example, when the device of "olden" is retrieved, it is "den" or "gold" possible. Moreover, when "Load Related Information" button is clicked, and a right pull-down-button is selected, all data concerning the attribute managed by the SAN resource management is displayed. It is also possible to select a target name from among this. The retrieval begins in the SAN resource management by selecting "Find" button. When the SAN resource cannot be retrieved a message box would be displayed. When detected the icon and it's information will be shown in the map and the list will be displayed as shown on the figure. Please execute the confirmation of detailed information with each View.
70
· Performance Management Window(W)
It shows the performance management window containing performance data. The plural windows can be shown. Please refer to "4.7 explanation of performance management screen" about details.
· Page Setup(F) It carries out a page setup at the time of printing.
· Print(F) It prints.
· Exit(X) It exits SAN management screen. It also exits when the performance management screen is simultaneously open. Please keep in mind that an icon position returns next time at the time of starting when not saved after icon position change.
4.2.2.2 Device(D)
· Change Device Management Name(N) It is possible to input the device name to control in SAN resource management.(Effective only when device icon is selected.) The dialog to input device management name is shown. Please set up a unique name within SAN resource management within 24 characters. It does not support Japanese words. You can change again and again. And, this name is not influential against real device. It is a name only on SAN resource management.
· Change Account Information for Device Management(C)
You set up user name and password for management to device of the SAN resource management again.(Effective only when device icon which needs password to control is selected.) There are some devices which need to login in order to acquire the information on device when information of the device is read and setup is processing in the devices of controlling with SAN resource management. SAN resource management is processing device information acquisition/setup by set up user name/password to login the device when registering device. Therefore, when it is changed after registering of this user name/password, it is necessary to re-set it in SAN resource management.
71
Please input the new user name/password from dialog. · Performance Management Setup(S)
It is possible when managing the performance of device.(Effective only GR720 or more and when switch icon is selected.) In GR(FUJITSU GR series disk array unit), please input the minimum and maximum values of OLU(open logical unit) (LUN_V) that serves as a target for performance secured here. The influence on the disk domain that stores performance data and the mitigation for which performance information acquisition is improper by not carrying out the LUN reservation of those other than necessity are one of reasons for carrying out a LUN setup. Therefore, we recommend you to input the minimum OLU range which performance data needs. In addition, in order to secure a performance per 64LUN internally, the performance information on LUN before and after inputting here is also secured.(For example, when OLU (LUN_V) is set up on a screen in 70-80, the information on OLU from 64 to 127 is secured internally.) In the case of both GR and switches, the interval that acquires performance information is inputted. The interval can be specified for 30/60/300 seconds. However, when securing OLU 2048 or more by GR, it becomes only a setup for 60/300 seconds. If "start" is carrying out in this dialog, the performance secured directions are published to a performance secured part (refer to (a) performance secured directions of the figure), and a performance secured part secures the performance information on device via LAN, and stores as performance data. In addition, since a performance secured part is started as a demon of a Storage management server, it continues securing a performance without starting of a SAN management screen in under Storage management server starting. The logical composition of device is recognized to GR and performance reservation is started. Therefore, it takes logic composition secured time (from dozens of seconds to several minutes) to actual performance reservation for the first time to selected GR when a performance secured start.
· Call Management Software(W) Device side management software is called from the device icon of a SAN resource management function. URL of device management software is called about GR and fiber channel switches. Please carry out a call cooperation setup with reference to "4.8 explanation of property".(It supports both URL call and direct command execution.)
· Property(P) It shows property of the device.(Effective only when the device icon is selected.) Please refer to "4.8 explanation of property" about details of property.
· Refresh(R) or [F5] It secures the state of the device registered by SAN resource management via LAN and displays it. Processing time has this dozens of seconds case from execution to a display, although it is dependent on the state of LAN and the number of device. Especially when the device that has disappeared on LAN exists, since internal retry is performed several times to the device, processing time becomes long. It is recommended to delete the device from SAN resource management that does not need to be managed.
4.2.2.3 Operation(C)
· Device - Add(A) Non-registered device is registered in order to manage by SAN resource management.(Effective only when non-registered device icon is selected.) Please refer to "7.4.2 registration of SAN resource" of the management guide for the management method of this function.
· Device - Delete(D) This device managed by SAN resource management is deleted for SAN resource management.(Effective only when registered device icon is selected.) Nothing is carried out from SAN resource management to this device. Please refer to "7.4.10 registration deletion of SAN resource" of the management guide for the management method of this function.
· Device - Find(F) SAN resource management searches using the specified IP of the device connected via LAN. (Effective only when registered device icon isn't selected.) Please refer to "7.4.1 detection of SAN resource" of the management guide for the management method of this function.
4.2.2.4 View(V)
· Change Screen It is set as one view of the followings about a map/list view. [Map View(M)] signifies that the screen viewing is in map view [List View(L)] signifies that the screen viewing is in list view [MAP/LIST View(D)] signifies that map and list view are performed simultaneously on a screen.
