DS4000 Storage Server (Engenio based) Management Protocol Analyzer

[ryands]

Dswrench.com announces a new debugging tool for the "DS4000 storage server (Engenio based disk storage
array)." We are proud to introduce the DS4000 Management Protocol Analyzer, or DSMPA. DSMPA is freeware
built by engineers for engineers, so we encourage you to use often and spread the word!

What it does:
DSPMA captures management network traffic between SANtricity or other management software and disk
storage arrays. It assembles network packets into DS4000 management objects. The captured objects can
be viewed graphically and played back. It is a powerful tool for DS4000 storage server support center,
storage administrators, storage management software developers and quality assurance engineers.

Is there a version available for a DS6800 also? We use DS6800 in combination with AIX5.2

The dsmpa will not work for DS6800. DS4000 arrays are LSI/Engenio based (OEMed) arrays. DS6800 is IBM developed midrange array.
