Similar to Remote Access, you can also modify the Service Access Timeout. To set the
Service Access Timeout, go to the Manage Service Access section in the Internal Firewall
and Service Access window, select the desired Service Access Timeout value, and click
Update Timeout Value, as shown in Figure 6-28 on page 321.
IBM Midrange System Storage security
The IBM Midrange System Storage Storage Manager has the ability to require an
administrative password in order to make changes to the subsystem configuration. We
recommend configuring this password.
The IBM Midrange System Storage storage subsystems also have a controller shell
environment that is accessible using a remote login (RLOGIN) client. IBM Midrange System
Storage Storage Manager has an option to disable RLOGIN, and we normally recommend
disabling RLOGIN.
See “Securing the DS5000 storage subsystem” on page 124 and 4.8.3, “Configuring IP
addresses of the controllers” on page 161 for information about how to set the Storage
Manager password and to disable remote login.
6.2.7 Managing alerts
To mange alerts, perform these steps:
1. When RSM receives SNMP alerts from one of the defined storage subsystems, an
attention mark (!) is shown next to the reporting link, as shown in Figure 6-29. Click
Reporting to see the alerts.
Figure 6-29 Main Menu: Storage Problem
2. The reporting and alert window shows all those subsystems that have sent alerts sent to
RSM (Figure 6-30 on page 323). Click View or Close Alerts.
