5.2.3 GXCC in other systems

GXCC can also be installed and is executable in Windows 98/NT/2000/XP, LINUX and
SOLARIS systems. An installation CD is supplied with each CentricStor. This contains the
tools and information files required for installation on the relevant systems. You will find
more information on this in the installation manual.
GXCC V6.0, GXCC V3.0 and GXTCC V2.x can be installed in the same system at the same
time.
Ongoing updating of GXCC takes place semiautomatically from the connected CentricStor
systems.

5.2.4 Screen display requirements

– The operator consoles of the ISPs meet the requirements.
– An external X11 server will require a graphics-capable color monitor. The ideal
resolution is 1280 x 1024 Pixel. The minimum requirement which must be set is
1024 x 786 Pixel.
– In GXCC important information is displayed using colors. As a result, 16-bit True Color
(or better) is ideal. 8-bit color palettes may lead to incorrect color displays if GXCC is
sharing the screen with other applications.

5.2.5 Managing CentricStor via SNMP

5.2.5.1

Connection to SNMP management systems

CentricStor is prepared for connection to an SNMP management station. On the GUI-CD
of CentricStor the software and information have the settings required. Special functions
are available for CA Unicenter.
SNMP is used, above all, to forward special situations reported in console outputs, for
example, to the management station as traps. The user interface or command-line interface
should then be used for detailed diagnostics.
