EMC SAN SMI-S provider class name for monitoring RAID controller

I am trying to monitor total bytes, read bytes and write bytes of the RAID controller in EMC CLARiiON so that I can monitor the IO performance of raid controller. But I am unable to find class name which can fetch this information through CIM Navigator or any tool.

Any idea, how to fetch EMC RAID controller specific monitoring data?

EMC-native tools, such as Navisphere can provide this for you.  You can also obtain it from VNX Monitoring and Reporting, if your Clariion is a CX4 or later.

EMC Supports the FibreAlliance MIB, which will provide a few variables.  There's also a Clariion MIB, which largely consists of a few traps.

Let us know if that helps!

Thanks for the reply Karl.

I may sound naive but like we have EMC_FanModule class in root/emc namespace to get parameters related to fan, does EMC provide any class to fetch parameters related to RAID controller ?

I am trying to do kind of CIM programming to monitor RAID controller performance.

EMC publishes a developer's guide for their SMI-S implementation.  Have a look at https://developer-content.emc.com/developer/devcenters/storage/snia/smi-s/downloads/SMIProvider_V4.6PG.pdf which covers SMI-S Provider 4.6.  If you're using a more recent version, you can find them on EMC Support.

Let us know if that helps!
