CubeView Client
In general case, one management computer installs the CubeView client software which will
periodically check the status of the XCubeDAS series systems attached to the servers via
the CubeView agents. The CubeView client software plays the role of central management
to monitor and manage the XCubeDAS series systems.
CubeView Agent
The CubeView agent software is installed in the servers which are connected to the
XCubeDAS series systems. The CubeView agent software plays the agent role. It receives
the SES command from the CubeView client and communicates with the XCubeDAS series
systems via SES protocol, and then replies to the CubeView client.
CAUTION:
The SAS HBAs or SAS RAID cards must support SES protocol. Otherwise,
the CubeView will not work properly.
INFORMATION:
The CubeView software is running in the client mode by default. Please
refer to the chapter 2.2.5
Agent Mode section in the chapter Getting
Started for the details of agent mode setting.
