6710.0. "OpenVMS HSZ50 RAID monitor toool?" by VIVIAN::D_BONO () Wed May 21 1997 04:16

        Hi,
    
        I have a customer that would like to monitor his raid arrays from
        OpenVMS. He has the following configuration.
    
        Alphaserver 4100 running OpenVMS V6.2-1H3 no graphics.
        KZPSA to HSZ50
        HSZ50 has 2 X 8 member raidsets with 3 SPARESETS HSOF V5.0Z
    
        He would like to know if a drive fails in one of the raid arrays. 
        Also to be able to monitor the status of the disks from OpenVMS.
          
        From what I can see there is Storageworks Command Console but this
        appears to only support NT and Digital Unix. There is also Storageworks
        HSZ40 Contoller Utility for OpenVMS does this work for HSZ50? Is 
        there a new utility for the HSZ50. The HSZ50 configuration guide 
        talks of SET HOST/SCSI device_name our 6.2 system does not know of
        the /SCSI quilifier and a V7.1 system fails to find
        HSZTERM$SCSIPAD.EXE
    
        Any input appreciated
    
        Thanks Dave Bono (MCS London)
