EMC SMI-S Agent (ECOM)

Description

This connector discovers the enclosure and the disks of EMC SAN disk arrays, as well as the storage pools and storage volumes. It also discovers and monitors the FC ports of the array and various environment sensors when available (temperatures, fans, power supplies, etc.). It relies on the WBEM technology and supports SMI-S compliant disk arrays only.
