Copy Services Manager software that is already on the hardware system. Doing so
results in less setup time; and eliminates the need to maintain a separate server for
Copy Services functions.
You can also use Copy Services Manager to connect to an LDAP repository for
remote authentication. For more information, see the DS8000 online product
documentation at http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ST5GLJ/
ds8000_kcwelcome.html and search for topics that are related to remote
authentication.
For more information, see the Copy Services Manager online product
documentation at http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSESK4/
csm_kcwelcome.html. The "What's new" topic provides details on the features
added for each version of Copy Services Manager that can be used by DS8000,
including HyperSwap for multi-target sessions, and incremental FlashCopy
support.
DS8000 Storage Management GUI supported web browsers
To access the DS8000 Storage Management GUI, you must ensure that your web
browser is supported and has the appropriate settings enabled.
The DS8000 Storage Management GUI supports the following web browsers:
Table 20. Supported web browsers
DS8000 series version Supported browsers
8.5 Mozilla Firefox 38
Mozilla Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) 38
Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
Google Chrome 43
IBM supports higher versions of the browsers as long as the vendors do not
remove or disable functionality that the product relies upon. For browser levels
higher than the versions that are certified with the product, customer support
accepts usage-related and defect-related service requests. As with operating system
and virtualization environments, if the support center cannot re-create the issue in
the our lab, we might ask the client to re-create the problem on a certified browser
version to determine whether a product defect exists. Defects are not accepted for
cosmetic differences between browsers or browser versions that do not affect the
functional behavior of the product. If a problem is identified in the product, defects
are accepted. If a problem is identified with the browser, IBM might investigate
potential solutions or workaround that the client can implement until a permanent
solution becomes available.
Enabling TLS 1.2 support
If the security requirements for your storage system require conformance with
NIST SP 800-131A, enable transport layer security (TLS) 1.2 on web browsers that
use SSL/TLS to access the DS8000 Storage Management GUI. See your web
browser documentation for instructions on enabling TLS 1.2. For Internet Explorer,
complete the following steps to enable TLS 1.2.
1. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. On the Advanced tab, under Settings, select Use TLS 1.2.
Note: Firefox, Release 24 and later, supports TLS 1.2. However, you must configure
Firefox to enable TLS 1.2 support.
