2. Basic Functions
Operation Management/Device Monitoring
Information transfer
•
This function sends information such as logs and configuration information to be used when
checking a failure. This shortens the time to collect the information that is necessary to check er-
rors.
Firmware download
•
The latest firmware in the remote support center is automatically registered in the ETERNUS DX.
This function ensures that the latest firmware is registered in the ETERNUS DX, and prevents
known errors from occurring. Firmware can also be registered manually.
However, NAS system firmware is not automatically downloaded.
●
Host Sense
The ETERNUS DX returns host senses (sense codes) to notify specific status to the server. Detailed
information such as error contents can be obtained from the sense code.
• Note that the ETERNUS DX cannot check whether the event log is successfully sent to the sy-
slog server. Even if a communication error occurs between the ETERNUS DX and the syslog
server, event logs are not sent again. When using the syslog function (enabling the syslog func-
tion) for the first time, confirm that the syslog server has successfully received the event log of
the relevant operation.
• Using the ETERNUS Multipath Driver to monitor the storage system by host senses is recom-
mended.
Sense codes that cannot be detected in a single configuration can also be reported.
