been
made
to

Overview
What
is
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager?
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
is
an
intelligent
console
for
the
storage
environment
that
provides
a
set
of
policy-driven
automated
tools
for
managing
storage
capacity,
availability,
events,
performance
and
assets
in
your
enterprise
environment,
including
NetWare,
NAS,
SSA,
ESS,
and
Microsoft
Cluster
Server
technologies,
as
well
as
RDBMSs
such
as
Oracle,
Sybase
SQL
Server,
Microsoft
SQL
Server,
and
UDB/DB2.
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
can
help
you
identify,
evaluate,
control
and
predict
your
enterprise
storage
management
assets.
And
because
it
is
policy-based,
through
its
autonomic
self-healing
capabilities,
it
can
detect
potential
problems
and
automatically
make
adjustments
based
on
the
policies
and
actions
you
have
established.
For
example,
it
can
notify
you
when
your
system
is
running
out
of
disk
space
or
warn
you
of
impending
storage
hardware
failure.
By
alerting
you
to
these
and
other
issues
related
to
your
stored
data,
it
enables
you
to
prevent
unnecessary
system
and
application
downtime.
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager’s
user
interface
(UI)
uses
a
familiar
tree-based
navigation
system
similar
to
the
scheme
used
in
Microsoft®
Windows®
Explorer.
This
system
allows
you
to
see
a
hierarchical
organization
of
the
product
and
its
features
in
the
left
pane
of
the
interface
while
viewing
detailed
reports
and
charts
in
the
right
pane.

1
Purpose
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager’s
NAS
support
enables
storage
administrators
to
monitor,
report
on,
and
manage
network-attached
storage
(NAS)
resources.
The
NAS
component
is
seamlessly
integrated
with
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
to
provide
organizations
with
a
universal
view
of
direct
attached
and
network
attached
storage,
from
a
filesystem
or
application
perspective.
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager’s
NAS
functionality
helps
organizations
manage
network
attached
storage
as
an
integrated
part
of
the
enterprise
storage
environment,
reducing
storage
costs,
better
managing
enterprise
storage
resources,
preventing
storage
problems,
and
ensuring
data
and
application
availability.
Architecture
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
is
based
upon
a
three-tier
architecture:
a
UI
component,
a
Server
component,
and
an
agent
component.
v
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
agents
collect
statistics
about
your
storage
and
send
that
information
to
the
centralized
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
Server.
Install
agent(s)
on
Windows
or
UNIX
machines
from
which
the
NAS
filers
you
want
to
scan
are
visible.
You
do
not
install
agents
to
the
NAS
filers
themselves—rather,
you
install
them
to
Windows
and/or
UNIX
machines
that
have
access
to
those
NAS
filers
(for
example,
install
agents
to
Windows
Figure

machines
that
can
access
your
NAS
filers;
install
agents
to
UNIX
machines
that
have
imports
for
the
filesystems
within
your
NAS
filers).
Note:
For
IBM
5196
TotalStorage
Network
Attached
Storage
300G
machines
only,
we
recommend
you
install
the
agent
directly
on
those
machines.
If
the
300G
is
clustered
you
will
need
to
install
an
agent
on
each
local
node.
v
The
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
Server:
–
Receives
information
from
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
agent(s)
and
saves
that
information
in
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
enterprise
repository.
The
enterprise
repository
is
where
all
of
your
storage
information
and
usage
statistics
are
stored.
All
Agent
and
UI
access
to
the
central
repository
is
done
via
a
series
of
calls
and
requests
made
to
the
Server.
–
Receives
user
requests
made
in
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
user
interface
and
retrieves
the
requested
statistical
information
from
the
enterprise
repository.
Users
can
then
use
this
information
construct
and
view
reports.v
The
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
UI
enables
users
to
make
requests
for
information
and
then
generate/display
reports
based
on
that
information.
Note:
All
database
access
is
done
via
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
Server
component
to
maximize
performance
and
to
eliminate
the
need
to
install
database
connectivity
software
on
your
agent
and
UI
machines.
See
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
Installation
Guide
for
more
detailed
information
about
installing
these
components.

IBM

scan
jobs
enable
you
to
gather
detailed
information
about
the
NAS
filesystems
within
your
environment.
To
do
this,
you
must
assign
an
agent
to
each
of
the
filesystems
discovered
by
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
during
the
Discovery
process.
If
agents
were

assign
agents
to
the
filesystems
on
those

You
can
assign
an
agent
to
scan
one

more
filesystems.
However,
keep
in
mind
that
the
size
of
a
filesystem
affects
the
speed
at
which
that
filesystem
is
scanned.
Distributing
filesystem
scanning
responsibilities
among
different
agents
can
greatly
increase
the
speed
at
which
scan
information
is
gathered.
For
example,
if
you
have
three
small
filesystems
and
one
large
one,
you
might
want
to
assign
one
agent
to
each
of
the
three
smaller
filesystems,
and
a
different
agent
to

enable
you
to
gather
detailed

To
do
this,
you
must
assign
an
agent
to
each
of
the
filesystems
discovered
during
the
Discovery
process.
If
IBM
Tivoli

you
will
not
be
able
to
assign

to
the

on
those

You
can
assign
an
agent
to
scan
one

more
filesystems.
However,
keep
in
mind
that
the
size
of
a
filesystem
affects
the
speed
at
which
that
filesystem
is
scanned.
Distributing
filesystem
scanning
responsibilities
among
different
agents
can
greatly
increase
the
speed
at
which
scan
information
is
gathered.
For
example,
if
you
have
three
small
filesystems
and
one
large
one,
you
might
want
to
assign
one
agent
to
each
of
the
three
smaller
filesystems,
and
a
different
agent
to
the
large

again
unless
changes
within
your

require
it
(such
as
changing
the
default

to
represent
the
entities
within
your
organization.
Organizing
the
users,
NAS

within
your
organization
into
groups
enables
you
to
quickly
target
specific
entities
against
which
to
collect
information,
set
quotas
and
constraints,
and
view

you
define
the:

Determine
what
information
you
want
to
gather
about
NAS
filers
and
define
the
appropriate
Monitoring
jobs.
Determining
what
information
you
want
to
gather
about
your
NAS
filers
is
critical
to
helping
you
implement
an
SRM
strategy.
Probes
and
Scans
are
the
Monitoring
jobs
you
can
define
to
collect
information
about
NAS
filers.
The
information
gathered
by
these
jobs
is:
v
used
to
determine
if
alerts
are
triggered
v
reflected
on
the
reports
available
in
the

you
have:
v
assigned
an
agent
to
each
of
the
filesystems
on
the
NAS
filers
discovered
by
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
v
determined
the
types
of
information
you
want
to
collect
about
your
NAS
filers
Once
you
define
a
job
to
collect
specific
information
about
your
storage,
you
do
not
need
to
redefine
that
job
in
the
future
(unless
you
want
to
make
changes
to
it
such
as
adding
new
computers
or
groups)—defining
a
Monitoring
job
is
a
one-time
only
task.
Once
defined,
the
job
will
run
according
the
schedule
that
you
define.

5.
Determine
what
conditions
must
occur
before
you
are
alerted
to
a
problem
within
a
NAS
filer.
Determining
when
and
how
you
will
be
alerted
to
conditions
within
a
NAS
filer
is
important
to
helping
you
maintain
and
administer
your
resources.
Define
Computer,
Filesystem,
and
Directory
Alerts
that
will
notify
you
when
certain
conditions
are
detected
in
a
NAS
filer,
filesystem,
and
directory.
When
a
condition
is
met
and
alert
is
triggered,
you
can
choose
to
be
notified
through
a
SNMP
trap,
TEC
Event,
login
notification,
event
log
(Windows),
syslog
(UNIX),
or
e-mail.
If
you
need
a
way
to
find
and
fix
problems—or
potential
problems—as
alerts
are
triggered,
you
can
use
the
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
Triggered
Action
facility
to
automatically
address
these
problems.
You
should
define
alerts:
v
after
defining
Monitoring
jobs
v
based
on
the
information
gathered
by
Monitoring
jobs
Once
you
define
an
Alert,
you
do
not
need
to
redefine
it
in
the
future
(unless
you
want
to
make
changes
to
it)—defining
an
Alert
is
a
one-time
only
task.
Computer,
Filesystem,
and
Directory
Alerts
are
checked
whenever
a
Probe
or
Scan
job
is
run.
Computer
Alerts
are
triggered
by
Probes.
Filesystem
and
Directory
Alerts
are
triggered
by
Scans.
6.
Determine
the
storage
policies
you
want
to
enforce.
Enforcing
storage
policies
within
your
organization
can
be
critical
to
ensuring
the
proper
and
most
cost-effective
use
of
your
storage
devices.
Use:

to
be
notified
through
a

Define
Quotas
and
Constraints:
v

v
based
on
the
information
gathered
by
Scan
jobs
Quotas:
Once
defined,
a
Quota
will
run
according
to
the
schedule
that
you
specified.
Because
Quotas
look
at
the
information
gathered
by
Scans
to
determine
if
a
quota
is
violated,
you
should
schedule
Quotas
to
run
after
the
appropriate
Scan
job(s).
Constraints:
Constraints
are
automatically
checked
whenever
an
appropriate

7.
Use
the
Reporting
Facility
to
define
reporting
groups
and
view
information
gathered
by
Monitoring
jobs,
Quotas,
and
Constraints.
The
Reporting
facility
enables
you
to
have
a
detailed
or
summary
view
of
all
your
NAS
filers,
enterprise-wide
or
by
age,
operating
system,
computer,
file
system,
and/or
user.
Use
reporting
groups
to
define
a
set
of
resources
and
monitoring
groups
upon
which
you
want
to
report.
All
the
information
available
through
the
Reporting
facility
is
gathered
by
Monitoring,
Alerting,
or
Quota
jobs.
You
should
view
reports
through
the
Reporting

whenever
you
want
to
view

is
designed
to
include
a
number
of
repeating
elements
and
consistent
themes
to
help
you
better
perform
the
critical
storage
management
tasks
related
your
NAS

By
understanding
how
these
elements
and
themes
form
a
logical
pattern
with
the
interface,
you
can
learn
to
quickly
navigate
and
use
the
Monitoring,
Alerting,
Policy
Management,
and
Reporting
facilities
within
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager.
Creatable
Objects
You
can
create
a
number
objects
when
working
in
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
to
help
simplify
the
Monitoring,
Alerting,
and
Reporting
process.
Objects
represent
reusable
definitions
you
can
execute
to
perform
specific
tasks.
Each
object
you
can
create
belongs
to
a
specific
object
type.
The
main
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
object
types
appear
in
the
product
function
tree
and
are
defined
in
the
following
table:
Object
Type
Function
and
Use
Groups
(Monitoring,
Policy
Management)
Create
named
groups
of
computers,
file
systems,
directories,
users,
and
OS
user
groups
within
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager.
This
allows
you
to
more
easily
refer
to
those
entities
when
you
are
defining
things
like
monitoring
jobs.
Discovery
(Monitoring)
Run
Discovery
jobs
to
search
for
NAS
filers
and
their
associated
filesystems
that
are
not
yet
being
monitored
by
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager.
Probes
(Monitoring)
Create
Probe
objects
to
itemize
and
create
and
inventory
of
your
storage
assets,
such
as
NAS
filers,
controllers,
disk
drives,
file
systems,
logical
units,
etc.
Scans
(Monitoring)
Create
Scan
objects
to
monitor
the
usage
and
consumption
of
your
storage.
Profiles
(Monitoring)
Create
Profile
objects
to
define
what
files
you
want
to
scan
and
what
statistical
information
you
want
to
gather.
Quotas
(Policy
Management)
Create
Quota
objects
to
control
how
much
space
a
user,
or
group
of
users,
can
consume.
This
consumption
can
be
controlled
at
three
levels:
the
filesystem
level,
the
computer
level,
or
the
entire
network
level.
Constraints
(Policy
Management)
Create
Constraint
objects
to
define
what
are
“acceptable”
and
“unacceptable”
file
types,
file
sizes,
and
file
owners
on
a
computer
or
a
set
of
computers
in
your
environment.
This
allows
you
to
do
things
like
restrict
users
from
storing
files
such
as
MP3
files
on
servers.
Alerts
(Alerts)
Create
Alert
objects
to
define
events
for
which
you
want
to
be
notified.
By
defining
the
events
that
you
want
to
be
alerted
about,
you
will
be
notified
by
the
product
in
the
manner
you
specify
when
one
of
those
events
occurs.
Schedulable
Jobs
Another
type
of
creatable
object
are
Schedulable

runs
for
that
object
are
displayed.
For
example,
the
monitoring
jobs
that
you
create
will
run
according
to
the
schedule
that
you
specify
when
you
define
the
object.

How
Quotas
Work
1.
A
Scan
gathers
extensive
information
about
the
NAS
filers,
filesystems,
and
directories
within
an
enterprise.
This
information
is
stored
in
the
enterprise
repository.
2.
When
a
Quota
job
runs,
it
checks
the
information
in
the
enterprise
repository
to
determine
if
any
Quota
violations
exist.
3.
If
there
are
any
violations,
an
alert
is
triggered
and
the
appropriate
action
is
taken.
Note:
Because
the
information
analyzed
by
Quotas
is
provided
by
scans,
you
should
schedule
a
Quota
to
run
after
all
the
corresponding
scans.
This
ensures
that
Quotas
are
using
the
latest
information
to
determine
violations.

1.
Run
a
Scan
job
against
the

Working
with
Scripts
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager’s
has
two
facilities
that
enable
you
to
execute
scripts
against
your
storage
devices:
v
The
Triggered
Action
facility
enables
you
to
define
thresholds
and
constraints
that
result
in
notification
or
action.
v
The
Scheduled
Action
facility
enables
you
to
schedule
scripts
to
run
against
selected
NAS
filers
and
NAS
filer
groups.
Both
facilities
are
script-based,
allowing
you
to
use
any
third-party
tools
for
actions,
such
as
archiving,
backup
and
recovery,
or
provisioning.
How
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
Runs
Scripts
During
installation,
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
creates
a
directory
on
every
Server
and
agent
machine
called:
\<install_directory>\scripts,
where
<install_directory>
represents
to
the
directory
where
the
agent
or
Server
is
installed.
The
default
installation
directory
for
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
components
is:
v
(Windows)
\Program
Files\Tivoli\TSRM
v
(UNIX)
/opt/Tivoli/TSRM
or
/usr/Tivoli/TSRM
When
a
script
is
run:
1.
The
Server
looks
in
its
local
\scripts
directory.
2.
If
the
Server
can
resolve
that
script
name,
it
loads
that
script
and
sends
it
to
the
agent
where
you
designated
the
script
to
be
run.
When
running
a
script
against
a
NAS
filer,
the
script
is
run
from
the
agent
assigned
to
the
filesystem
where
the
triggering
condition
occurred.
3.
The
agent
receives
the
script,
names
it
as
a
temporary
file,
and
runs
it.
4.
After
the
agent
has
finished
running
the
script,
the
temporary
file
is
deleted.
How
the
Server
and
Agent
Resolve
Script
Names
An
IBM
Tivoli
Resource
Manager
Server
processes
requests
for
both
UNIX
and
Windows
agents.
When
associating
and
running
scripts
with
triggered
and
scheduled
actions,
the
Server
resolves
the
names
of
those
scripts
based
on
the
following:
1.
the
OS
under
which
an
agent
is
running
2.
how
the
script
name
is
specified
on
the
Specify
Script
dialog
box
Agent
and
Operating
System
The
operating
system
under
which
an
Agent
runs
determines
the
scripts
that
can
be
run
by
that
agent:
v
UNIX.
An
agent
running
under
a
UNIX
operating
system
will
not
run
or
receive
(from
the
server)
scripts
that
have
an
extension.
UNIX
agents
only
accept
and
run
script
files
that
do
not
contain
an
extension
within
their
name.
The
first
line
in
a
script
file
determines
what
UNIX
interpreter
is
needed
to
run
the
script.
v
Windows.
An
agent
running
under
a
Windows
operating
system
will
only
run
or
receive
(from
the
server)
scripts
that
have
an
extension.
The
extension
of
a
script
file
determines
what
interpreter
is
needed
to
run
the
script.
Specifying
a
Script
Name
38
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager
NAS
Component:
User’s
Guide
Use
the
Specify
Script
dialog
box
when
associating
a
script
with
a
triggered
or
scheduled
action.
Enter
the
name
of
a
script
on
the
Script
Name
field
to
associate
that
script
with
the
action
you
want
to
perform.
The
name
of
the
script
you
enter
might
or
might
not
contain
an
extension
(including
an
extension
is
optional).
Depending
on
the
Agent
that
receives
the
script,
the
following
occurs
after
a
triggered
or
scheduled
action
that
contains
a
script
is
run:
v
UNIX
agent.
If
the
specified
script
name
contains
an
extension,
the
agent
ignores
the
extension
and
searches
for
a
file
of
the
same
name
(without
an
extension).
For
example,
if
you
enter
backup.vbs
in
the
Script
Name
field,
a
UNIX
agent
will
search
for
a
file
with
the
name
backup.
If
the
script
exists,
UNIX
will
read
the
first
line
of
the
script
and
use
the
appropriate
interpreter
to
run
the
script.
If
the
file
does
not
exist,
the
triggered
or
scheduled
action
will
not
run
the
script.
v
Windows
agent.
If
the
specified
script
name
contains
an
extension,
the
agent
will
search
for
a
file
of
the
same
name/extension.
For
example,
if
you
enter
backup.vbs
in
the
Script
Name
field,
a
Windows
agent
will
search
for
a
file
with
the
name
backup.vbs.
If
the
script
does
exist,
the
Windows
agent
will
determine
what
interpreter
is
needed
to
run
the
script
based
on
its
extension.
If
the
file
does
not
exist,
the
triggered
or
scheduled
action
will
not
run
the
script.
If
the
specified
script
name
does
not
contain
an
extension,
a
Windows
agent
will
look
for
the
file
name
in
the
following
order
(based
on
its
extension):
.com,
.exe,
.bat,
.cmd,
.vbs,
.vbe,
.js,
.jse
The
IBM
Tivoli
Storage
Resource
Manager’s
process
for
script
name
resolving
enables
you
to
run
scripts
with
the
same
name
across
multiple
operating
systems.
To
run
a
script
on
both
a
UNIX
and
Windows
operating
systems,
you
must
have
two
versions
of
that
file
on
either
the
Server
or
the
Agent.
For
example,
if
you
want
to
run
a
provisioning
script
against
a
UNIX
and
Windows
agent,
you
must
have
two
versions
of
that
file
(provision.bat
and
provision)
stored
in
the
\scripts
directory
on
either
the
server
or
agent.
Running
scripts
in
response
to
an
Alert
When
you
define
an
Alert,
you
can
define
a
script
to
be
run
when
the
triggered
condition
is
met.
1.
Check
Run
Script
on
the
Alert
tab.
2.
Press
Define.
The
Specify
Script
dialog
box
displays.
3.
Enter
the
name
of
the
script
in
the
Script
Name
field.
Note:
This
script
name
is
used
to
tell
the
Server
what
script
to
send
to
the
agent.
If
the
script
sent
by
the
Server
is
run
by
the
agent,
the
name
of
the
script
will
not
be
the
name
you
specify
in
the
Script
Name
field.
Instead,
the
agent
names
the
script
as
temporary
file,
runs
it,
then
deletes
it
after
the
script
has
run.
Because
of
this,
you
should
not
have
code
in
your
script
that
depends
on
this
script
name.
4.
Specify
where
you
want
the
script
to
run
in
the
Where
to
Run
field.
You
can
select
a
specific
agent,
or
the
triggering
computer.
For
example,
if
a
constraint
is
violated
on
a
filesystem
on
a
specific
machine,
you
would
typically
want
the
script
to
run
the
machine
that
triggered
the
constraint
violation.
(For
some
types
of
alerts
such
as
Job
Failed,
you
will
not
have
the
option
to
run
the
script
on
the
triggering
computer.
Here
you
can
run
the
script
on
any
agent
you
choose.)
Note:
If
you
want
to
run
script
against
a
filesystem
on
a
NAS
filer,
you
must
select
the
agent
that
is
assigned
to
the
filesystem
from
this
field.

Reporting
Groups
A
Reporting
Group
is
a
user-defined
set
of
resources
and
groups
upon
which
you
want
to
report.
When
you
generate
a
report,
storage
statistics
about
a
reporting
group
will
appear
in
the
corresponding
″By
Group″
clause
for
that
report.
For
example,
if
you
generate
a
Disk
Capacity
>
By
Computer
Group
report,
that
report
will
display
information
about
the
computer
reporting
groups
you
have
defined.
Unlike
monitoring
groups,
a
resource
can
appear
in
one
or
more
reporting
groups.
Use
reporting
groups
to
view
storage
information
about:
v
resources
that
appear
in
different
monitoring
groups.
Because
a
resource
can
appear
in
only
one
monitoring
group
at
a
time,
you
can
use
reporting
groups
to
include
resources
from
different
monitoring
groups
and
view
reports
on
them
v
a
subset
of
resources
within
a
monitoring
group.
For
example,
you
can
create
a
reporting
group
for
a
specific
subset
of
computers
with
the
Payroll
monitoring
group
and
generate
a
report
containing
information
about
those
computers
You
can
create
reporting
groups
for
computers
and
filesystems.
Within
a
computer
reporting
group,
you
can
include
computer
monitoring
groups,
specific
computers,
and
other
reporting
groups.
Within
a
filesystem
reporting
group,
you
can
include
filesystem
monitoring
groups,
specific
filesystems,
and
other
reporting
groups.
