If you are integrating Citrix XenServer with EMC Clariion storage the Navisphere Host Agent (naviagent) can be installed in the Linux management OS (domain 0) so that the host registers with Navisphere.
- Download the Navisphere Host Agent 6.28 from here (requires Powerlink login) – http://tinyurl.com/n5cbu2
- Unzip and copy the RPM to the /tmp folder of the XenServer host. I use a tool from Bitvise called Tunnelier to do this – http://dl.bitvise.com/Tunnelier-Inst.exe
- From the SSH shell go to the /tmp folder and give give yourself execute permissions to the rpm with this command “chmod 755 *.rpm”
- Type this command to install “rpm -i naviagent-6.28.20.1.40-1.noarch.rpm”
- Open the firewall ports using these commands
iptables -D RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT –reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6389 -j ACCEPT –src SPA-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p udp –dport 6389 -j ACCEPT –src SPA-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6389 -j ACCEPT –src SPB-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p udp –dport 6389 -j ACCEPT –src SPB-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6390 -j ACCEPT –src SPA-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6390 -j ACCEPT –src SPB-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6391 -j ACCEPT –src SPA-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6391 -j ACCEPT –src SPB-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6392 -j ACCEPT –src SPA-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state –state NEW -p tcp –dport 6392 -j ACCEPT –src SPB-IP-ADDRESS
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT –reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
iptables-save >/etc/sysconfig/iptables
Reboot the host and then check Navisphere to see if the host registered.
