The Root Agent Setting option is shown in Figure 4-16.
Figure 4-16: Root Agent Setting
• Administrator Password: This allows you to set an administrator’s
password. This is the port number the RAIDWatch centralized
manager station will use to communicate with the Root Agent. The
default for Administrator is “root.” There is no default password for
login as Guest.
NOTE:
This password is independent from the password set for the
“Configuration” login to start the RAIDWatch management program.
• Guest Password: This is selected to enable a user logging in as
“Guest” to view the status of RAID arrays currently being managed
by the Configuration Client utility.
4.3.2 Adding RAID Agents IPs (Associating Root Agent
with Multiple RAID Arrays)
RAID Agents are the sub-modules of RAIDWatch or the Configuration
Client utility used to communicate with a RAID subsystem. Multiple
RAID Agents can be associated with a Root Agent. A Root Agent then
summarizes and presents these RAID Agents to the Configuration Client
so that system administrators can be notified of system alerts if any faulty
conditions are detected within these RAID arrays.
Step 1. RAID Agents currently being managed by a Root Agent are
listed in the lower right corner of the RAIDWatch screen.
Step 2. To add or delete RAID Agents, click the Create button next to
the Root Agent pull-down list to open an Add Monitor
Controller window. (See Figure 4-17) The same command can
also be activated by right-clicking on the agent list under
Current Value section. (See Figure 4-18)
