Configuring a Streamvault manager entity

2023-04-04Last updated

You can configure a Streamvault™ manager entity to control the alert configurations of a group of Streamvault hardware monitors from a single location and set up notifications to be raised when problems occur. The Streamvault manager entity is only used for this and is optional.

Before you begin

Procedure

  1. In Config Tool, navigate to the Plugins task and select the Streamvault plugin role.
  2. Right click on the Streamvault plugin role and click Create manager.
  3. From the General tab, configure the following:
    1. To manage alert configurations through the Streamvault manager configurations, activate the Agent manages iDRAC alert configurations checkbox.
    2. In the Alert notification section, activate the checkboxes that correlate with the types of Events, level of Severity, and types of Notifications that you want to include for the Streamvault Maintenance plugin instances controlled by this Streamvault manager.
      Note: Streamvault instances that have their configurations set by the Streamvault manager are shown in the Agents using Streamvault manager configuration section.
  4. In the Email recipients section, choose which users and user groups receive email notifications when a condition in the Alert configuration section is met.
  5. (Optional) In the Remote management credentials section, activate the Agent manages iDRAC account checkbox to manage credentials directly through the plugin.
  6. (Optional) In the Remote management credentials section, deactivate the Agent manages iDRAC account checkbox to use iDRAC to control user and password creation.
  7. (Optional) If you deactivated the Agent manages iDRAC account checkbox, navigate to the Management tab and configure credentials directly in iDRAC.
