SMI-S Compliant Disk Arrays Enterprise

Description

This connector discovers the enclosure and the disks of SAN disk arrays, as well as the storage pools and storage volumes. It also discovers and monitors the FC ports of the array and various environment sensors when available (temperatures, fans, power supplies, etc.). It relies on the WBEM technology and supports SMI-S compliant disk arrays only.

This connector is superseded by:

hardware[14] storage[15]

Target

Typical platform: Any SMI-S compliant disk array

Operating system: Storage System

Prerequisites

Leverages: SMI-S Agent provided by the array vendor

Technology and protocols: WBEM

Examples

CLI

metricshub HOSTNAME -t storage -c +SMISDiskArray --wbem -u USER

metricshub.yaml

resourceGroups:
  <RESOURCE_GROUP>:
    resources:
      <HOSTNAME-ID>:
        attributes:

          host.type: storage
        connectors: [ +SMISDiskArray ] # Optional, to load only this connector

Connector Activation Criteria

The SMI-S Compliant Disk Arrays connector will be automatically activated, and its status will be reported as OK if all the below criteria are met:

  • The WBEM query below to the managed host succeeds:
    • Namespace: Automatic
    • WQL Query: SELECT Name,Dedicated FROM CIM_ComputerSystem
    • Result contains: [;|]3|[0-9|]*;$ (regex)
  • The WBEM query below to the managed host succeeds:
    • Namespace: Automatic
    • WQL Query: SELECT DeviceID FROM CIM_DiskDrive
