The API functions that access RAID Agent can obtain performance data collected from the storage system that RAID Agent will monitor.
Note the following before using API functions that access RAID Agent:
- Make sure that communication that uses port 24221/tcp can be established between the Analyzer server and RAID Agent.
- The Analyzer server uses the IP address of RAID Agent registered for the Hitachi Enterprise Storage probe. Make certain that the Analyzer server can reach the IP address.
- You can enhance security by restricting servers that have access to the performance data of RAID Agent. For details, refer to the Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer Installation and Configuration Guide, and read the information about the function for restricting the servers that can connect to RAID Agent.
- After changing the instance environment for RAID Agent, you must manually refresh the RAID Agent list.
