How to add a new storage
-
Assure you have enough of disk space on the filesystem where is STOR2RRD installed
Roughly you might count 1-5GB per a storage, it mainly depends on number of storage volumes (LUNs)
-
Check install manual for particular storage type how to connect the storage include all its prerequisites.
-
STOR2RRD v2.60+: add the storage in the UI --> settings icon --> Storage and try connection test
- older versions:
Place storage name into /home/stor2rrd/stor2rrd/etc/storage-list.cfg
Check if it is configured properly:
$ ./bin/config_check.sh storage_name
-
Once it is done then the tool should start data collection
-
Run this about 20 minutes later, it loads data and updates the UI
-
Refresh the web browser (Ctrl-F5)
-
If you get this error after the storage add then follow this check:
$ ./load.sh
...
...
<storage_name>: Can't open /home/stor2rrd/stor2rrd/data/X/config.html is missing (fresh install or upgrade?, then wait abou 20mins) ...
