This project is Zenoss extension (ZenPack) that makes it possible to model and monitor HP EVA 4X00/6X00/8X00 devices. It creates a /Devices/Storage/SMI-S/HP/EVA Device Class for monitoring these storage devices.
You must first have, or install, Zenoss 2.5.2 or later. This ZenPack was tested against Zenoss 2.5.2 and Zenoss 3.2. You can download the free Core version of Zenoss from http://community.zenoss.org/community/download
You must first install CIMMon ZenPack.
- delete existing HP EVA Devices from your Zenoss inventory.
- uninstall old HPEVAMon ZenPack
- delete /CIM/HPEVA device class
- install latest HPEVAMon ZenPack
Download the HPEVAMon ZenPack. Copy this file to your Zenoss server and run the following commands as the zenoss user.
zenpack --install ZenPacks.community.HPEVAMon-2.0.egg zenoss restart
If you wish to further develop and possibly contribute back to the HPEVAMon ZenPack you should clone the git repository, then install the ZenPack in developer mode using the following commands.
git clone git://github.com/epuzanov/ZenPacks.community.HPEVAMon.git zenpack --link --install ZenPacks.community.HPEVAMon zenoss restart
- You should now have /Storage/SMI-S/HP/EVA device class.
- Click on the HPEVA class and select Details.
- Click Configuration Properties on the left.
- In the right pane, in both zCIMConnectionString and zCIMHWConnectionString fields replace ${here/manageIp} text with the IP address or hostname of the EVA Command View server. The reason for this is that you'ere going to use the EVA server as a boker to grab data regarding the EVAs themselves, hence you request data about an EVA using it's WWN and that request is fired at the Command View IP/Hostname.
- In the zWinPassword and zWinUser add the correct credentials of a user account that can access the server. (possibly create a new user account in AD and add this account to the CV server)
- Hit Save.
- Click on See All at the top of the left pane.
- Still in the EVA class click on the icon at the top of the main pane to add a new single device. Use Command View get the WWN (without dashes) of your EVA and paste into the Hostname or IP field and click Add.
- Give Zenoss a chance to perform the Add Job, when I first added our EVA the Job service was down and needed starting.
- Once the device has been added, go into it and from the icon on the bottom left select Model Device. At this point I had issues with Zenoss connecting to Zenhub and got timeout errors. It eventually reconnected and carried on sometimes it didn't, just restart the modelling if it fails but give it a chance to retry.
- Once the modelling has completed you should then see a load of objects in the Components menu in the left pane as well as a new hardware tab where the graphical disk view can be found.
Graphing should start almost immediately, you may need to soom in to see it starting. I may have seen an issue involving the renaming of the device from the WWN where graphing stops after the rename...well that's what appears to have happened....so rename at your peril!
