The Host Agent can :
- Retrieve information from the storage system automatically at startup or when requested by Manager or CLI.
- Send drive mapping information to the attached CLARiiON® storage systems.
- Monitor storage-system events and can notify personnel by email or pager when any designated event occurs.
- Retrieve LUN World Wide Name (WWN) and capacity information from Symmetrix® storage systems.
- Download Navisphere Host Agent / CLI from EMC Powerlink, latest version as of this writing is 6.22
- Extract and run ./linux/ESX_installer.sh to open required ports
- Install or upgrade the RPM ( in this example I'm upgrading)
- Start or restart the service:
- go to Navisphere Control Center and update the host and make sure it reflect the same agent version
