This page provides details about storage products that are supported with Tivoli Storage Productivity Center version 5.1
Content
Important:
|
Firmware levels newer than what is listed here are considered untested but are expected to work similarly and can be used. Newer levels are often recommended to pick up the latest fixes and functionality. If issues arise while using the newer levels, open a PMR and IBM Support will investigate the problem and attempt to resolve it, but resolution is not guaranteed. An upgrade to a later version of Tivoli Storage Productivity Center may be required. Any issues will be documented as they are identified. This applies to the IBM devices using a native interface only.

2 Specify a user ID and password of an administrator on the cluster that has sufficient privileges to maintain the SSH keys.
3 With Data ONTAP SMI-S Agent, performance monitoring is supported for volumes and front end ports. It is not supported at the top storage system level.
4 The Open HyperSwap functionality for Tivoli Storage Productivity Center for Replication requires a minimum version of R5.1 with DS8700. It also requires SDDPCM driver 3.0.0, which is available for download.
5 Tivoli Storage Productivity Center communicates with DS8000, XIV, SAN Volume Controller, and Storwize V7000 storage systems through their native interfaces rather than with CIM agents. The native interfaces have replaced any prior use of CIM agents as data sources for these storage systems.
6 Support for XIV enhanced performance metrics is available starting with XIV 10.2.4.
7 The embedded CIMOM for IBM TS3500 with firmware A430 or higher is not supported. Refer to the technote for details.
8 The TIMECOUNTERSUPPORTED variable for the SMI-S Provider for E-Series version 10.10.GG.62 is set to FALSE by default. If that has been set to TRUE to collect response time metrics, the performance monitoring jobs may experience data continuity (HWNPM2124) errors and discard some data records. If you would like to use TIMECOUNTERSUPPORTED set to TRUE, you must be using SMI-S Provider for E-Series version 10.19.GG.21 or higher.
9 Support for Data ONTAP 8 is limited to volumes with a maximum size of 1 TB.
10 SVC and Storwize R7.1 and R7.2 support is available only when a fix for APAR IC90221 has been applied on top of Tivoli Storage Productivity Center 5.1.1.1 (build 20130426-0703). This was available as a hotfix for Tivoli Storage Productivity Center 5.1.1.1 and is now available in the 5.1.1.2 and later fix packs. Storage Optimizer support for R7.1 is only available with the 5.1.1.2 or later fix packs. Storage Optimizer support for R7.2 is not available at this time.
By Vendor:
Dell, EMC, Engenio, Fujitsu, Hitachi Data Systems, Hitachi Limited, HP, NetApp, Silicon Graphics, StorageTek, Sun, 3PAR
Tivoli Storage Productivity Center is SMI-S 1.1.0, 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 certified by SNIA for Disk functionality and supports the functions of providers that have also been certified at these levels. SMI-S standards higher than SMI-S 1.1 are backward compatible. Efforts are made to test many of these provider versions to provide confirmation that the results with Tivoli Storage Productivity Center will be as expected. The function within Tivoli Storage Productivity Center will depend on the SMI-S version, provider version, firmware level on the device and which subprofiles have been certified. The SNIA Conformance Testing Program Web site has details to identify available providers for the vendors listed below, along with details about their SMI-S versions, supported devices, and which profiles have been certified.
The non-IBM storage systems listed below are *not* supported with Tivoli Storage Productivity Center for Replication.

1 See provider documentation to confirm device and firmware support. Not all provider versions are supported for all devices available from a particular vendor. The SNIA CTP Web site also provides information about devices supported for particular provider versions.
2 All providers will do basic reporting but only some provide performance management information.
3 With Data ONTAP SMI-S Agent, performance monitoring is supported for volumes and front end ports. It is not supported at the top storage system level.
4 See statement at the top of the vendor storage table for details regarding Disk Manager support for SNIA CTP certified providers. Data Manager function, such as LUN correlation is also available with these devices.
5 Refer to the known performance management and provisioning limitations documented for certain EMC SMI-S Provider 4.x/Solutions Enabler 7.x levels. Minimum versions of SMI-S Provider v4.1.0.4 / Solutions Enabler v7.1.0.34 are required.
6 Refer to the known performance management limitations documented for HDvM 6.x SMI-S Provider and HP XP CommandView 6.x.
7 Performance management is not supported with the following HP models: XP1024, XP128, XP512, XP48, even with HP XP CommandView 6.2.
8 Basic HyperSwap on zOS was developed for Hitachi. Please contact Hitachi directly to confirm support of desired configuration.
9 Support for provisioning does not include thin provisioning capacity information.
10 EMC Navisphere Global Security parameter must be set as disabled to work correctly with the SMI-S Provider. You must install both Solutions Enabler and the SMI-S Provider. EMC MetaLUNs are not supported by Tivoli Storage Productivity Center.
11 Support for Data ONTAP 8 is limited to volumes with a maximum size of 1 TB.
