Storade 2.4 and Sun MC 3.5
Greetings,
We have recently deployed Sun MC 3.5 at our organisation, and wish to integrate notifications from Storade 2.4.
I have read the Storade documentation, turned on Sun MC as a provider, specified the Sun MC server, reporting frequency and SNMP notifications on our Stordade central server.
On both the Storade and Sun MC servers, I have installed the SUNWesraa package, but can not manage to get Storade to send any notfications via Sun MC.
We have dropped the notification for Storade to information, but email notifications continue to arrive while Sun MC notifications do not.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Andrew

Ensure you have the latest Storade and SunMC patches.
Did you put SUNWesras and SUNWesraa packages on or just the one?
I had major problems some time ago and found an easy solution to not getting events.
Remove /opt/SUNWstade/DATA/last_sunmc_topo and manually run rasagent -d 3 -r and towards the end you should see Provider information that mentions SunMC. When I say manually run, you must stop rasagent processes that are run from cron.
I bet this will fix the problem.
Cheers
Stephen

Stephen,
We have only installed SUNWesraa on both systems. Do we need SUNWesras? If so, where can I obtain it?
I followed your advice about removing /opt/SUWstade/DATA/last_sunmc_topo and manually running rasagent again. It worked and I can now see the topology/devices within SunMC.
Thank for your assistance.
Regards,
Andrew

If you only have one instance of Storade and SunMC, you don't really need the other package, but it does not hurt to have it. It can be downloaded at http://www.sun.com/download/index.jsp?cat=Systems%20Administration&tab=3 8;subcat=Storage%20Management
On a side note, if you have your Storade system attached to a San fabric via FC, have a look at the programs in the bin or is it sbin directories. They are very interesting. Things like dis_hba, etc kept me happy for days.

Hi,Thanks for your help on this. We have 2xSE6320's, 2x Storade servers and one SUNMC. I have deployed SUNWesras onto the SunMC server and one of the Storade servers.Thanks also for the pointer on the Storade programs - we will definitely look into these.
