HWNPM0293I Performance monitoring is unavailable for FlashSystem resource_name because its SNMP agent is disabled. You can enable SNMP for FlashSystem storage systems in the <a target=_blank href=hyperlink>FlashSystem GUI<a>.
Explanation
Collection of performance data from a FlashSystem 840 or FlashSystem 900 requires the use of an SNMP data source. If the FlashSystem SNMP agent is not enabled, the performance monitor for that system fails with this message.
Action
Go to the management GUI of the FlashSystem storage system, then go to the SNMP Settings page, set the SNMP v1 Read Community name, and enable the SNMP agent. The SNMP agent for the FlashSystem storage system supports only SNMPv1 for authentication. If using SNMPv1 for authentication is unacceptable in your environment due to security reasons, do not enable the SNMP agent. If the SNMP agent is not enabled you cannot collect performance data from your FlashSystem storage system.
If IBM Spectrum Control is already monitoring the FlashSystem storage system, run another probe after you enable the SNMP Agent. To run a probe, go the Storage Systems page, right-click the storage system, and click Data Collection > Start Probe. After the probe completes successfully, run the performance monitor again.
