Storage
TeemIP's Storage Management module relies on iTop's Storage Management module that has been slightly adapted to integrate with TeemIP' specific IP objects. For a comprehensive reference to that module, please, refer to the Storage Management chapter in iTop wiki.
The Storage Devices that have been modified by TeemIP are:
| Class of CIs | Icon | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Storage System |  | A Storage System is used in TeemIP to describe any storage system that can be attached either to a SAN or to an Ethernet network. The logical unit of storage managed by a Storage System is a Logical Volume. |
| SAN Switch |  | A SAN Switch is a network switch compatible with the Fibre Channel protocol used by storage networks. |
| Tape Library |  | A Tape Library is a storage device which contains one or more tape drives, a number of slots to hold tape cartridges and an automated method for loading tapes. Tape Libraries are used for data backup or archiving. |
| NAS |  | A Network-Attached Storage system (in short: NAS) is a specialized file server appliance that connects to the network. In iTop a NAS is linked to NAS File Systems. |
One attributes have been added to all these classes.
| Name | Type | Mandatory? |
|---|---|---|
| IP Address | Foreign key to a(n) IPv4 or IPv6 Address | No |
Upon creation or modification, an IP Address attribute can be set as a foreign key to an IP address. A drop-down box will list a choice of available IP addresses.
- According to the Allow attachment of already allocated IPs to CIs parameter defined in the Global IP Settings of the IP's organization:
- Only addresses which status is released or unassigned (i.e. not allocated nor reserved) will be offered,
- Or
- Only addresses which status is allocated, released or unassigned (i.e. not reserved) will be offered,
- Status of IP is automatically changed when IP is attached to the data centre device or removed from it,
- If enabled through IP settings, CI name is copied into IP short name.
Fiber Channel Interfaces
A Fibre Channel Interface, is a network interface to a high-speed network technology primarily used for connecting shared storage devices (Storage Systems in iTop).
Next to the modifications listed above, TeemIP modifies the Fiber Channel Interface class by adding a status to it.
| Name | Type | Mandatory? |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Possible values: Active, Inactive | Yes |
