The libStorageMgmt can manage IBM DS/XIV/SVC via SMI-S plugin
(libstoragemgmt-smis-plugin package).
IBM DS/XIV/SVC are using embedded SMI-S provider which ran by the storage array itself. Please contact IBM support to enable SMI-S feature.
Once done, the URI is:
smispy://username@host
smispy+ssl://username@host
# The 'username' is the username of management account of IBM array.
# The 'host' is the ip/host of management port of IBM array.
For ‘SSL error: certificate verify failed’ error, it means LSM failed to verify IBM SMI-S providers’ SSL public keys with system wide PKI/x509. Please contact IBM support to setup the self-signed certification.
If you want to ignore the SSL check error which is not suggested, please
add no_ssl_verify=yes in your URI, like this:
smispy+ssl://username@host?no_ssl_verify=yes
