With the Medium deployment option, you can manage up to 16 arrays and 256K objects. This deployment needs 4 vCPUs, 16GB memory and min 500GB Disk Space. Use the Small deployment option to manage up to 8 arrays and 128K objects. SSMC Deploymentĭuring the Deployment you can choose the initial settings like IP address and you can choose between three Sizing Options: Today supported operating systems to run the appliance on are VMware ESXi version 6.0, 6.5, 6.7 or Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 or 2016.
#HP 3PAR SSMC WINDOWS#
In the Past, we installed the SSMC as a service on an existing Windows or Linux Host, now it is a standalone Linux based appliance.
#HP 3PAR SSMC ISO#
When you mount the ISO you will find the appliance image file in there HPE_SSMC_VMware_Image plus the migration tool (HPE_SSMC_Migration_Tool) which will allow you to migrate your current settings to the new appliance. Once downloaded you will find an ISO with the name format HPESSMC-.iso.

Therefore, I would say the right Version should be 4.0. Once you save the permission in the policy, you may go into Services and start the HP 3PAR StoreServ Management Console Server service successfully.HPE have just released SSMC 3.4, it looks like a small update, but it brings a big change and many new features.

Choose the Local Security Policy item in the menu. To allow this, go to Start and then to Administrative Tools. This account needs to have “Allow log on locally” in the Local Security Policy on the server. The service attempts to use a local Windows account called hp3parssmcuser that is created during the installation. But if you want to keep a more locked-down policy in place, there is a workaround. A fresh build of Windows 2012 has the following settings in the Allow log on locally policy and with these settings it would work. Since we may not be the only company to make this change, I have included it. This is because we removed the Users group from the Allow log on locally policy in the computer’s Locally Security Policy as part of our standard server build. On my system, the service failed to start and gave an error after the installation completed. Once you login, you should see the Dashboard and from there, its time to start exploring SSMC. It would be the same account you used to login to the 3PAR Inform Management Console (IMC) - the old client. To login to the SSMC, you will use either a local account on the 3PAR arrays or using an LDAP account if your 3PAR arrays are configured and connected to LDAP. Uncheck the box for Administrator Console and you will get the normal SSMC login page. Once the arrays are connected, you may logout of the Administrator console and you will go back to the login page. Once the arrays are added, the SSMC begins the process of connecting the arrays to manage them. To connect your 3PARs, you use the Actions button to add the arrays. Once you login, you are presented with a Storage Systems view with no systems connected. The next step is to login to the Administrator console and connect the SSMC to your 3PAR arrays.
#HP 3PAR SSMC PASSWORD#
You click Set Credential button and save a password for the administrator account. On the SSMC server, you may browse to (if you chose the default TCP port during installation) and you will be presented a message saying that the Administrator credential is not set. If you have altered the Local Security Policy on your Windows system and removed the Users group from the Allow log on locally, you will get an error. Once you finish the installation, the installer tries to start the service.
