RN-96HIAA000-07 (April 2017)

IAA-06858 If you assign resources from dynamic threshold type

to another target monitoring profile, the existing monitoring profile name can be displayed if that occurs after the reassignment.

Reassign the resources to the old

monitoring profile after the dynamic threshold calculation of the monitoring profile is completed.

Then, assign the resources to the new target monitoring profile.

Review the log to verify an entry for the KNAQ33008-I message that confirms the completion of the dynamic threshold calculation of the monitoring profile.

IAA-06897 The status of a resource is not changed even when the

• If you want to use Oracle JDK instead of Open JDK, perform the following procedure

for each Data Center Analytics server and each Analytics probe server:

1. Log in to the server.

2. Install the Oracle JDK to the target server.

3. Execute the following command to set the default Java installation to the Oracle

JDK.

# alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java <OracleJDK path>/bin/java 1 # alternatives --set java <OracleJDK path>/bin/java # alternatives --install /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0 jre_1.8.0 <OracleJDK path>/jre 1

4. Execute the following command to set the default keytool installation to the

keytool of Oracle JDK.

# alternatives --install /usr/bin/keytool keytool <OracleJDK path>/bin/keytool 1

# alternatives --set keytool <OracleJDK path>/bin/keytool

• To install the Windows-based probe, do the following procedure.

Procedure

1. Run the DCA_Windows_Probe.exe to install the Windows-based probe.

2. If you have the DCA_Windows_Probe_Patch.exe, run the

DCA_Windows_Probe_Patch.exe to install the patch version.

Usage notes

• When you set up the Hitachi Enterprise Storage probe, use the default value for the

RAID Agent collection interval except the "PLC (Pool Configuration)". Set 60 for the

"PLC (Pool Configuration)" collection interval.

When you delete the monitoring target from the Analytics probe server, reboot the

Infrastructure Analytics Advisor server after 24 hours. If you fail to reboot, the

Infrastructure Analytics Advisor server will not show the most up-to-date status of

resources and instead continues to display the status before the deletion of the

monitoring target.

When a virtual machine is migrated by using Hyper-V's live migration function, the

virtual machine before migration and the one after migration are recognized as two

different virtual machines, and information about performance and configuration is

not inherited.

Without intervention, the amount of disk space used by the Data Center Analytics

continues to increase. Therefore, monitor the disk usage and expand it if needed.

The disk usage can be monitored through the Data Center Analytics server. You can

configure an alert notification email when disk capacity runs short.

For instructions on setting up the mail server, refer to "Configuring the SMTP

server" in the Hitachi Data Center Analytics User Guide.

Use the following procedure to monitor disk capacity with Data Center Analytics

server alerts:

1. In the application bar area, click the Alerts menu, and select Definitions.

2. Select the System Alerts tab.

3. Select System Disk Usage and click Subscribe.

4. In the Subscribe for System Disk Usage window, select the Email tab.

5. Enter email addresses separated by commas.

Install the following yum/rpm dependency packages: • perl • perl-CPAN • gcc • java-1.8.0-openjdk update 91 or higher • samba • expect

• openssl-devel • ftp • unzip • wget • glibc.i686 • glibc.x86_64 • libstdc++.i686 • libstdc++.x86_64 • net-tools • tcsh • libyaml • libgcc.x86_64 • nss-softokn-freebl.x86_64 • iproute.x86_64 • ncurses • openssh-clients • nss-3.21.0 or higher • expat-devel • xinetd • sysstat • zip • bc • perl-XML-Simple(*1) • perl-Digest-MD5(*1)

You can install the yum/rpm dependencies from the Linux OS media or Red Hat Enterprise Linux website. The procedure for installing the yum/rpm dependencies using the Linux OS media is as follows: 1. Mount the Linux OS media and obtain the yum/rpm

dependency packages: mkdir /media/OSImage

mount /dev/cdrom /media/OSImage

2. Configure the yum repository: touch /etc/yum.repos.d/OSImage.repo

echo [dvd]>>/etc/yum.repos.d/OSImage.repo

echo name=dvd>>/etc/yum.repos.d/OSImage.repo

echo baseurl=file:///media/OSImage/>>/etc/yum.

repos.d/ OSImage.repo

echo gpgcheck=0>>/etc/yum.repos.d/OSImage.repo

echo enabled=1>>/etc/yum.repos.d/OSImage.repo

3. Run the yum command to install the dependency packages:

yum install perl perl-CPAN gcc java-1.8.0-open

jdk samba expect openssl-devel ftp unzip wg

et glibc.i686 glibc.x86_64 libstdc++.i686 l

ibstdc++.x86_64 net-tools tcsh libyaml libg

cc.x86_64 nsssoftokn-freebl.x86_64 iproute.

x86_64 ncurses openssh-clients nss-3.21.0 e

xpat-devel xinetd sysstat zip

Note: If the environment you are using already has the libstdc

++ package installed, x86_64 (the 64-bit library) and i686 (the 32-bit compatibility library) packages might be different versions. Therefore, installation of libstdc++.i686 might fail with an error message such as the following:

Protected multilib versions: libstdc++-xx.xx.xxxx.xx.el6.i686 !=

libstdc++-yy.yy.yyyy.yy.el6.x86_64

If this happens, update x86_64 (the 64-bit library), and then retry the installation of libstdc++.i686:

#update libstdc++.x86_64

yum update libstdc++.x86_64

Note: The package nss-3.21.0 may not be included in the

Linux OS media of certain versions. Obtain this package from the Linux website or the Linux OS media of version 6.8 or later.

4. Unmount the Linux OS media:

umount /media/OSImage/

rm /etc/yum.repos.d/OSImage.repo
