About the CommandCentral family

The CommandCentral family includes the following modules:

■CommandCentral Storage: A storage resource management solution that

provides centralized visibility and control across heterogeneous storage

environments while reducing risks and costs.

For more information, refer to the following:

See “About Veritas CommandCentral Storage”on page 8.

■CommandCentral Storage Change Manager: A storage change management

solution that provides insight into storage infrastructure related changes in

your data center, helping you to ensure the availability of your storage

infrastructure, manage service level agreements more effectively, and improve

operational efficiency.

For more information, refer to the following:

See “About Veritas CommandCentral Storage Change Manager”on page 18.

■CommandCentral Enterprise Reporter: Provides a global view of storage assets

mapped to your organization, business insight about inventory and utilization,

on-demand customized reporting, and personalized dashboards.

For more information, refer to the following:

See “About Veritas CommandCentral Enterprise Reporter”on page 20.

About Veritas CommandCentral Storage

Veritas CommandCentral Storage by Symantec represents an entire storage

resource management (SRM) solution, giving you what you need to manage your

storage infrastructure more effectively. It gives you the following capabilities:

■Offers a single console from which data center administrators deploy, manage,

and expand a multi-vendor networked storage environment. The

CommandCentral Storage Console seamlessly integrates performance and

policy management, storage provisioning, and zoning capabilities to ensure

that the storage infrastructure runs as efficiently as possible. The Console

enables users to set policies that automate notification, recovery, and other

user-definable actions.

■Discovers and tracks the utilization and allocation of storage resources down

to the disk level. The reporting features in CommandCentral Storage provide

a complete and detailed view into precisely how and where storage—for office

documents, files, applications, email, and databases—is used in your enterprise.

■Shows usage trends and makes forward projections. You can gather data both

locally and remotely (through a managed host). This means you can get baseline

information without huge deployment costs. Armed with this data, you can

do predictive modeling to analyze the return on your storage investment. You

also have what you need to implement a program of departmental chargeback.

Using CommandCentral Storage together with other Symantec software, IT

managers have the tools they need to perform real, active, end-to-end storage

resource management and make strategic decisions about their future storage

needs.

By actively managing the entire data path from application to array,

CommandCentral Storage helps ensure optimal performance and availability of

business critical applications. CommandCentral Storage also offers customizable

policy-based management to automate notification, recovery, and other

user-definable actions.

About Veritas CommandCentral Storage

What’s new in CommandCentral Storage 5.1

CommandCentral Storage 5.1 contains and builds upon CommandCentral Storage

5.0 functionality, providing several new features.

Management and discovery

CommandCentral Storage 5.1 introduces the following management and discovery

features.

Enhanced agentless discovery of storage resources

If you do not install the CommandCentral managed host on hosts in your storage

network, the CommandCentral Management Server can discover those hosts and

their connections to storage resources through agentless discovery.

The process involves creating a user-created host in order to associate the

unidentified adapter (HBA) discovered through switch discovery to the host to

which it connects. In previous versions of CommandCentral, you could do this

one host at a time. Now, CommandCentral 5.1 provides you with the ability to

create multiple hosts at once and to automate the process by creating rules and

importing information from a CSV file.

For more information about this feature, see the CommandCentral Storage User’s

Guide.

Detection of configuration related changes to storage arrays

In CommandCentral Storage 5.0 MP1, explorers initiate discovery of devices based

on the explorer’s polling interval. The polling interval is the amount of time that

the explorer waits to initiate discovery of the device. For example, the polling

interval might be 180 minutes.

In CommandCentral Storage 5.1, explorers continue to initiate discovery of devices

based on the explorer’s polling interval; however, for certain array explorers, you

can also enable change detection. When you enable change detection, explorers

listen to SNMP traps or frequently poll storage arrays—for example, every 15

minutes—in order to detect configuration related changes to that array—for

example, masking changes. When the explorer detects configuration related

changes to the storage array, the explorer initiates a full discovery of the array.

For example, if you enable change detection for EMC CLARiiON storage arrays,

by default, the explorer listens for SNMP traps from CLARiiON storage arrays.

When the explorer detects changes, it initiates discovery of the array. Because

the explorer discovers the changes in near real-time, CommandCentral Storage

can provide you with more up-to-date information about the storage array. In

contrast, if you do not enable change detection, discovery occurs only when the

9Getting started with the CommandCentral family

About Veritas CommandCentral Storage

explorer polls the storage array using the polling interval—for example, a polling

interval of 180 minutes.

Change detection is available for the following storage arrays:

■EMC CLARiiON

■EMC Symmetrix

■Hitachi HiCommand

■HP EVA

■NetApp unified storage devices

For information about enabling change detection, see the CommandCentral

Hardware and Software Configuration Guide.

Improved Data Module file scanning

In CommandCentral Storage 5.0 MP1, the Data Module file scanner determines a

file’s size by its logical size. Now, in CommandCentral Storage 5.1, the file scanner

also collects a file’s physical size. A file’s physical size provides you with a more

accurate account of space consumption over the logical size. You can use the Data

Module Importer settings and Data Module rules to specify whether you want

summary reports that report on directory size, user consumption, file type usage,

and aging data to display a file’s size by its logical size or physical size.

Additionally, you can drill down into detail reports to display both the logical size

and physical size.

For more information, see the CommandCentral Administrator’s Guide.

Discovery of device groups and composite groups for EMC Symmetrix

storage arrays

CommandCentral Storage now discovers the name of the device groups and

composite groups to which devices from EMC Symmetrix storage arrays belong.

The group names appear when you view an EMC Symmetrix storage array’s Devices

pane.

Discovery of replication objects for HP EVA storage arrays

CommandCentral Storage now discovers the following replication objects for HP

EVA storage arrays:

■Snapshots

■Vsnaps

■Snapclones
