EMC XtremIO Storage Systems (WBEM)

The XtremIO Storage System is an all-flash array based on a scale out-architecture. The system uses building blocks called X-Bricks which can be clustered together.
An XtremIO storage system can include a single X-Brick or a cluster of multiple X-Bricks. The storage system is controlled via a dedicated Linux server called XtremIO Management Server (XMS). The XMS can be either a physical or a virtual server.

As part of routine discovery, the EMC XtremIO pattern is triggered on a storage device running a type of OS matching XtremIO Management Server SMI-S Provider. Once discovered, the storage entities are modeled in BMC Discovery.

Prerequisites

  • XtremIO Array version 4.0.15-15 or higher
  • XtremIO Management Server (XMS) version 4.2.1-6 or higher
  • XMS Embedded SMI-S Provider running on port 5989
  • Configure the XMS Embedded SMI-S Provider
  • ECOM credentials. These credentials should be entered as WBEM credentials for the XtremIO Management Server SMI-S Provider IP address.
  • WBEM credentials for the XMS Embedded SMI-S Provider:
    1. In the Add Credential page (Refer to the Adding Credentials page for detailed information):
      • Enter the XtremIO Management Server IP address
      • Enter the Username and Password to connect to the XMS Embedded SMI-S Provider as previously configured in the ECOM Administration and the XtremIO Storage Management Application
      • Select the HTTPS access protocol
      • Select the WBEM HTTPS port 5989
    2. Test the credentials (Refer to the Testing credentials page for detailed information):
      • Open Manage > Device Credentials
      • Select the previously configured XtremIO Device
      • From the Actions, drop-down list, select Test
    3. Scan the XtremIO Cluster (Refer to the Scanning IP addresses page for detailed information):
      • Open Manage > Discovery and click Add New Run.
      • Provide the required information and click OK.
      • Open Discovery Run and check the Discovered Storage Devices / Storage Systems.
