Management interfaces
You can use various IBM storage management interfaces to manage your storage
system.
These interfaces include DS8000 Storage Management GUI, DS Command-Line
Interface (DS CLI), the DS Open Application Programming Interface, DS8000
RESTful API, IBM Storage Mobile Dashboard, IBM Spectrum Controland IBM
Copy Services Manager.
DS8000 Storage Management GUI
Use the DS8000 Storage Management GUI to configure and manage storage and
monitor performance and Copy Services functions.
DS8000 Storage Management GUI is a web-based GUI that is installed on the
Hardware Management Console (HMC). You can access the DS8000 Storage
Management GUI from any network-attached system by using a supported web
browser. For a list of supported browsers, see “DS8000 Storage Management GUI
supported web browsers” on page 22.
You can access the DS8000 Storage Management GUI from a browser by using the
following web address, where HMC_IP is the IP address or host name of the HMC.
https://HMC_IP
If the DS8000 Storage Management GUI does not display as anticipated, clear the
cache for your browser, and try to log in again.
Notes:
v If the storage system is configured for NIST SP 800-131A security conformance, a
version of Java that is NIST SP 800-131A compliant must be installed on all
systems that run the DS8000 Storage Management GUI. For more information
about security requirements, see information about configuring your
environment for NIST SP 800-131A compliance in the IBM DS8000 series online
product documentation ( http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/
ST5GLJ_8.1.0/com.ibm.storage.ssic.help.doc/f2c_securitybp.html).
v User names and passwords are encrypted for HTTPS protocol. You cannot access
the DS8000 Storage Management GUI over the non-secure HTTP protocol (port
8451).
DS command-line interface
The IBM DS command-line interface (DS CLI) can be used to create, delete, modify,
and view Copy Services functions and the logical configuration of a storage
system. These tasks can be performed either interactively, in batch processes
(operating system shell scripts), or in DS CLI script files. A DS CLI script file is a
text file that contains one or more DS CLI commands and can be issued as a single
command. DS CLI can be used to manage logical configuration, Copy Services
configuration, and other functions for a storage system, including managing
security settings, querying point-in-time performance information or status of
physical resources, and exporting audit logs.
Note:
Java
™
1.8 must be installed on systems that run the DS CLI.
The DS CLI provides a full-function set of commands to manage logical
configurations and Copy Services configurations. The DS CLI is available in the
Chapter 1. Overview
