46 XP Performance Control Export Tool
• Java™ Runtime Environment (JRE)
To be able to use the Export Tool, you XP must install Java Runtime Environment on your Windows or
UNIX computer. If your computer runs Command View Advanced Edition or Remote Web Console
software, JRE is already installed on your computer and you can install the Export Tool. If your
computer does not run XP Command View Advanced Edition or Remote Web Console software but
contains an appropriate version of JRE, you can install the Export Tool on your computer.
NOTE: The JRE version required for running the Export Tool is the same as the JRE version
required for running XP Command View Advanced Edition or Remote Web Console software. For
detailed information about the JRE version required for running XP Command View Advanced
Edition or Remote Web Console software, see the HP StorageWorks XP Command View
Advanced Edition software Device Manager user guide or the HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web
Console user guide for the specific arrays.
• A user ID exclusively for use with the Export Tool
To use the Export Tool, you must create a user ID that will be used exclusively with the Export Tool.
When you create the user ID, note the following:
• Permissions for local array programs
If you use the Export Tool only to save monitoring data to files, do not assign any permission to the
user ID for use with the Export Tool. If a user ID having permission is used with the Export Tool, the
array configuration might be changed in an unfavorable way by an unidentified user.
If you use the Export Tool to save monitoring data, start or stop monitoring, and change the
gathering interval with the set subcommand, the user ID must have at least one of the permissions
for XP Auto LUN, XP Continuous Access, TrueCopy for z/OS, XP Continuous Access Journal, and
Universal Replicator for z/OS.
• User types
You can specify any user type for the user ID for use with the Export Tool.
If you specify storage administrator for the user ID, all the monitoring data described from
Table 3 to Table 18 can be saved into files.
If you specify storage partition administrator for the user ID, the monitoring data that
can be saved and the Export Tool functions are limited. For more information, see ” Limitations of
the Export Tool ” on page 82.
For more information about creating user IDs, see the HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration and
Security Manager XP user guide for the specific array. For more information about XP Performance
Control, see ” XP Performance Control ” on page 7.
• The Export Tool program
The Export Tool is contained in the HP StorageWorks RAID Manager Library CD. For detailed
information about how to install the Export Tool on a Windows computer, see ” Installing the Export
Tool on a Windows computer ” on page 46. For detailed information about how to install the Export
Tool on a UNIX computer, see section ” Installing the Export Tool on a UNIX computer ” on page 47.
Installing the Export Tool on a Windows computer

In later steps, you will install the Export Tool on the new directory.
2. Insert the Program Products CD into the CD-ROM drive.
3. Locate the self-extracting file
export.EXE
in the directory
\program\monitor\win_nt
in your
CD-ROM disc, and then copy
export.EXE
to the new directory you created earlier.
4. Double-click
export.EXE
on your computer.
The Export Tool is installed. Also, a new directory named

is created.
NOTE:
• The
export
directory contains a couple of files, which includes

. HP recommends
deleting
runUnix.bat
because this file is no longer needed.
