Common Information Model (CIM): Provides for the management of the
switch through third-party applications that use the Storage Management
Initiative-Specification (SMI-S). The default is enabled.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP): Provides for transferring files rapidly between
the workstation and the switch using FTP. The default is enabled.
Management Server (MS): Provides for the management of the switch
through third-party applications that use GS-3 Management Server. The
default is enabled.
Call Home: Provides for automated email notification of switch status and
operating conditions based on specified event severity levels. The Call
Home service is enabled by default. The Call Home service requires an
Ethernet connection to at least one Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
server. You must configure the Call Home service to do the following:
Enable primary and secondary SMTP servers and specify their IP
addresses
Specify contact information
Configure one or more Call Home profiles to specify email recipients,
message format, and the event severity level that will initiate a
message.
Furthermore, you can configure periodic event data collection and
processing through the Tech_Support_Center profile for automated status
and trend analysis. With the purchase of a Prime Service contract, you may
designate QLogic Technical Support to receive these notifications, in which
case, QLogic will contact you proactively with recommended corrective
actions whenever component failures or potential system problems are
detected. Contact support@qlogic.com (1+952-932-4040) for assistance
with the setup process and to determine the appropriate level of monitoring
required.
