if yo don't the files there, you will need to get in touch with PowerLink support to modify your profile.

EMC Control Center (ECC) is what we know as the mother of all Storage Management software. While you can use Navisphere to manage CLARiiON storage, you can also have ECC connnect directly to CLARiiON storage and perform simple storage provision activites, among other functionalities.

It is very different from Navisphere and has it's own quirks and other functionality. You can have it manage other storage lik Symmetrix, Celerra, HDS, NetApps etc - although except for Symmetrix you are limited to rather basic storage provision / management features compared to using natively available management tools.

However what ECC excels in is apart from having a single user interface to manage them all - Storage, SAN Switches, Backups, is the Notifications and Alerts features. There are other add-ins like StorageScope which provides excellent storage related reporting features, performance monitoring and reporting, and then some.

The software is not normally free - unless you are a very big EMC user. Installation is not very straightforward, and it is a very involved subject and requires quite a lot of expertise to get the server up and running.

That said I am looking around for the software download for this product. My company has all the license, but nobody seems to have the installation package.

Hi Guys,

  What is basic diffrence between ECC, SMC and Unisphere?

Also, what version you are using of these 3

Please share the differnce between DMX, Symmetrix and VMAX too

Unable to understand.

please share the links to go through to understand

Thanks

ECC (end of life by the way) used to be used to manage the entire storage infrastructure. You could use it to manage switches, storage (FC arrays, CAS ..etc). You could also deploy host agents to collect statistics etc.

Unipshere for VMAX and its predecessor SMC are used strictly to manage Symmetrix/VMAX storage arrays.
