EMC ControlCenter
family of products
EMC ControlCenter is a family of products that provides you with an
integrated approach to managing your multivendor storage
environment, and automating many of your common storage
management tasks. The ControlCenter base product is comprised of
Open Integration Components (OIC). Several other ControlCenter
plug-in products are available. The ControlCenter products you
choose depend on the Storage Resource Management (SRM)
solutions you want to implement.
This EMC ControlCenter section contains many references to
supporting publications, which can be accessed from any of the
following:
◆ Documentation/Help CD provided with your EMC
ControlCenter installation kit
◆ EMC Powerlink at http://Powerlink.EMC.com
◆ ControlCenter Documentation Library, which is available from
the ControlCenter Console’s help menu after installation.
Open integration
components
At the heart of ControlCenter is a common foundation and
infrastructure, which provides scalability, usability, and information
sharing across all ControlCenter applications. An embedded
database stores and shares information about each object being
managed. Common services, part of OIC, discover, correlate, and
map relationships between objects.
This design enables ControlCenter applications, such as Symmetrix
Manager and Performance Manager, to span storage array, storage
network, and host management functions.
