2 Click the Navisphere_Simulation_429 link.
Step Action
3 The .zip folder displays as shown below. Click Extract all files to save the files
to a location on your system.
2
4 Specify a location to extract the files to. For example, C:\NavSimulator.
Step Action
5 Click Finish to view the extracted files.

EXPERIMENT-2
“Logging into the Navisphere Manager”.
Step Action
1 Extract the files of the simulator by right click on the zip file and choosing “Extract to

Step Action
Start the Navisphere Manager interface by opening the folder
“Navisphere_Simulator_429” and double clicking on “launch navisphere.html”
2 Verify Username: administrator and Password: emc. Click “OK” at the
login screen
Action
3 Examine the lower left window of the Enterprise Storage Window to display the
signed in credentials. You should notice the login name of “administrator” with a role
of “administrator” and a “scope” of “Global”
i.e. administrator [ Administrator – Global ]
Note Scope: Local users are ideal for accounts where access to only a single CLARiiON
is required. For global users, a single user account may be used to access all
CLARiiON storage systems within a Navisphere domain.

EXPERIMENT-3
“Navigating the Navisphere Manager User Interface”.
Step Action
1 In the Enterprise Storage Window, expand the objects where you see a “+” sign.The
Task Bar shown at the left allows the user to perform common functions suchas Creating
LUNs, Mirrors and Snapshots. Clicking on the buttons on task bar brings up a Wizard to
guide the user through basic configuration tasks. Initially the Reserved LUN Pool is
empty and there are no RAID Groups, Thin Pools, Storage Groups, LUNs and Thin
LUNs. The Physical container shows a number of DAE3P and components in the rack
(details of physical container are given on next page).The LUN Folders containe allows a
way to easily organize LUNs in the array.
Step Action 2 By expanding the Physical Container you can view the DAE3P enclosures. Each
DAE3P can contain up to 15 FC or SATA disk drives. Note also the other
7
components such as FANs, LCCs, and Power Supplies
Step Action
3 Expand the “Enclosure SPE” container. The Storage Processor Enclosure contains
Power Supplies, Fans, Fibre/iSCSI ports and SPS.
8
Step Action
4 Click on the File tab on the menu bar and examine the options available
5 Click on the Tools > Security tab from the toolbar and examine the options
available. ( Note some options may not be available or grayed – out )
9
Step Action
6 Click on Tools> Security > User Management > Add
Add a second user with the parameters below.
Username: manager
Role: manager
Password: emc
Leave the global/Local at the default of global.
Click OK, YES, OK and confirm the new user creation.
Step Action
10
7 Go to File > Logout, then File >Login and log in as “manager”.
Examine the File options and note the changes.
Examine the Tools > Security options and note the changes.
What does this tell you about the Roles assigned to a user and their permissions?
Note Manager cannot create a new user.
8 Logout and login as “administrator”.
Action
9 Similarly multiple users can be created and different roles can be assigned to the users.
Release 29 of Navisphere supports several other roles in addition to the ones
shown here for managing CLARiiON Replication Software products.
These roles are:
Security administrator
Replication
Local replication only
Replication and recovery
