Cisco UCS Director supports EMC VNX block, file, and unified storage accounts. Block supports block data, file supports file data, and unified supports both block and file data. See the Compatibility Matrix for all supported EMC VNX versions.
For a VNX Block account, you can manage the following:
The reports for VNX Block accounts also include details on all of these items, and on storage processors, ports, meta LUNs, hosts, ports, and disk devices.
For a VNX File account, you can manage the following:
Data Movers
Storage Pools for File
Volumes
Filesystems
Common Internet File Servers (CIFS) servers
Common Internet File Servers (CIFS) shares
Network File System (NFS) exports
Data Mover Interfaces
DNS Domains
The reports available for VNX File accounts include details on the above items, and system overview summaries.
For a VNX File new account, you create either Common Internet File Servers (CIFS) or Network File System (NFS) Export.
For NFS Export, you create the following:
For a VNX unified account, which combines VNX block and VNX file accounts, you can perform all the steps needed for both VNX block and VNX file accounts.
To communicate with VNX, Cisco UCS Director supports Windows-based EMC NaviSphere and Linux-based EMC Navisphere.
Before using NaviSphere, you must install and configure a Secure Shell (SSH) server on it.
Installing and Configuring Windows-Based Navisphere
Ensure that you install the openssh, openssl, and TCL Cygwin packages on a Windows host.
To set up an SSHD server, we recommend that you install Cygwin version 1.7.27, and use the SSH daemon on the host. Cygwin provides a Linux-like environment on Microsoft Windows.
After you install the SSHD server on the Windows-based EMC NaviSphere, modify the Path variable under System Variables to include the NaviSphere bin folder. This update ensures that anyone who uses SSH to access Windows-based NaviSphere can execute VNX commands.
After you configure the SSHD server, set up new default paths to enable the user-installed software to override the system software.
Ensure that you can run the naviseccli commands without providing the absolute path at the command prompt. You can use any SSH client to verify SSH access.
By default, Cisco UCS Director executes NavisecCLI commands with an explicit path that does not exist in Windows. You must create a softlink to that path through the Cygwin shell.
Step 1 | Open the Cygwin shell on the Windows server where Navisphere is installed. |
Step 2 | In the Cygwin shell, create the following directory: /opt/Navisphere |
Step 3 | Create a softlink for the Navisphere directory. Example: For example. if you installed Navisphere in the C:\Program Files (x86)\EMC\NavisphereCLI directory, execute the following command to create a softlink: ln -s /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/EMC/NavisphereCLI /opt/Navisphere/bin cd /opt/Navisphere/bin chmod 775 NaviSECCli.exe |
You must complete this step before you add a VNX Storage Array as an account in Cisco UCS Director.
In Cisco UCS Director you can add the following types of VNX accounts:
VNX file account—X-Blade enclosure, two to eight blades, configurable failover options, and flexible I/O connectivity. You can have one data mover per license.
VNX block account—Storage or data processor enclosure, dual active storage processors, automatic failover, and flexible I/O connectivity. You can have two service providers per license.
VNX unified account—Single platform for VNX file and VNX block. You can have two service providers per license.
Cisco UCS Director tests the connection to the VNX control station. If that test is successful, it adds the VNX file account and discovers all infrastructure elements in the storage system that are associated with that account. This discovery process and inventory collection cycle takes few minutes to complete.
The polling interval configured on the System Tasks screen on the page specifies the frequency of inventory collection.

The polling interval configured on the System Tasks screen on the page specifies the frequency of inventory collection.
For VNX block (and VNX unified) accounts, you manage the following pools, groups, devices, and views:
Storage pools—Name, description, RAID type (RAID 1/0, RAID-5, RAID-6), disks, and percentage of the full threshold
RAID groups—RAID group ID, RAID Type (RAID 1, 0, 3, or 5, disk, hot spare), expansion, or defragmentation priority, disks. You have options to automatically destroy a RAID group after the last LUN is unbound, and for power saving.
Host initiators—Add to new or existing host, hostname, WWN/IQN, SP port, initiator type (CLARiiON Open, HP Auto Trespass, HP No Auto Trespass, SGI, Fujitsu Siemens, Compaq Tru64), and failover mode (Active-Active mode -Failover Mode 4, Active-Passive mode (PNR)-Failover Mode 1, AIX Active-Passive mode (PAR)-Failover Mode 3, Legacy Failover Mode 2, Legacy Failover Mode 0). You add hosts to the storage groups.
Storage groups—Name
Logical unit numbers (LUNs)—Storage pool type (pool, RAID group), RAID type (1_0, 5), storage pool for new LUN (new or existing pool), user capacity, capacity units (MB, GB, TB, Blocks), alignment offset (LBA), default owner, initial tier placement (optimize for pool performance, highest available tier, lowest available tier), and options for automatically assigning LUN IDs as LUN names, LUN ID autogeneration, and Thin or Maximum provisioning. You mount LUNs as Datastores and also add them to the storage groups.
