What's New

Hitachi Device Manager v.8 is now supported. Please note that the monitoring history will be lost when upgrading to version 8.
The monitoring solution now supports unlimited debug file size. In previous versions, the debug file size was limited to 500 MB.
Volumes Monitoring: it is now possible to disable the monitoring of all the volumes of a system to limit the number of instances created and therefore reduce the system resource consumption.
The monitoring solution now collects data even though the statistics logging is not activated.
The Port Count attribute has been added to the Hitachi Disk Array monitor type to report on the number of ports available on the disk array.
A new monitor type has been added to the monitoring solution: Hitachi Managed Array.
The Collection Status attribute has been added to the Hitachi Device Manager monitor type to indicate the status of the collection.

Changes and Enhancements

The monitoring solution now collects data even though the statistics logging is not activated.
In order to report more accurately on the actual available capacity of a disk array, the calculation method used to determine the Available Capacity attribute of the Hitachi Disk Array monitor type has been modified. The Available Capacity attribute now reflects the capacity available in storage pools plus the total space available for storage pool creation.
