SMI-S Compliant SAN Switches

Description

This connector discovers the enclosure and fiber-channel ports of SAN switches as well as the various environment sensors (temperatures, fans, power supplies, etc.). It relies on the WBEM technology and supports SMI-S compliant switches only.

Connector ID: SMISSwitch

This connector is superseded by:

Target

Typical platform: Any SMI-S compliant SAN switch

Operating system: Storage System

Prerequisites

Leverages: SMI-S Agent provided by the switch vendor

Technology and protocols: WBEM

Examples

CLI

hws HOSTNAME -t storage -f SMISSwitch --wbem -u USER

hws-config.yaml

hosts:
- host:
    hostname: <HOSTNAME> # Change with actual host name
    type: storage
  selectedConnectors: [ SMISSwitch ] # Optional, to load only this connector
  wbem:
    protocol: https
    port: 5989
    username: <USERNAME> # Change with actual credentials
    password: <PASSWORD> # Encrypted using hws-encrypt
