New features and improvements in SRM
Storage Resource Monitor 2024.2 includes the new features in version 2024.2 of the SolarWinds Platform. For more information, see the SolarWinds Platform 2024.2 Release Notes.
SRM introduces API-based polling for NetApp E-Series devices
NetApp E-Series and EF-Series storage arrays, as well as Lenovo DE Series and FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS AB/HB Series, can now be monitored using SANtricity Web Services (REST API). The SMI-S Provider (SANtricity SMI-S Provider) is deprecated by the vendor.
When adding a new storage array, you can choose from different polling methods (SANtricity Web Services Proxy, SANtricity Web Services Embedded, or SANtricity SMI-S Provider). You can also migrate existing storage arrays from SMI-S polling to SANtricity Web Services (REST API) polling.
Other features available only with SANtricity Web Services include hardware health monitoring and controller status and host port monitoring for E-Series devices (available only on some models).
