How to monitor Hitachi Storage Arrays with Cacti

[clearthought]

Was really frustrated with low quality software from Hitachi. Hacked together some perl scripts with cacti and now have a really good monitoring system for the SUN SE9985 which is the HDS NSC55.

The HOWTO is here http://www.clearthoughtinc.us/kb/index. ... ctihitachi


Hope this post helps someone out there !!!!

Hi Vinod

I had setup the scripts as suggested and imported the data/graph templates into cacti. How do I setup the host, since there is no host-template? Do i point it to the SVP and use the generic snmp/ucd?

Thanks

I am getting error while running the perl script. The command.txt file has the login name as root but there is no field for password. Is there a way to add it to the file? The error log terminates with "login failed [line=2]"

Thanks

. Find Exception = java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:

java.io.EOFException: Attempt to read primitive data, but no data block is active.

Is there something I am missing? This is a 9990v

Can this be used with WMS/AMS line?
