- Information displayed on the Web browser screen 101 is information provided to the Web browser from the management client program and displayed by the Web browser.
- Information provided to the Web browser from the management client program may include information received from the server by the management client program.
- the management client program does not necessarily provide information to the Web browser. This is because the management client program only needs to perform processing to display necessary information on a part of the Web browser screen 101. This also applies to input processing.
- another method or software architecture may be used.
- the web browser screen 101 has a first area 110 and a second area 120.
- the first area 110 is an area where information representing a state related to the storage system and / or an input object that can be operated by the user regarding the storage system is displayed. Specifically, a tab screen is displayed in the first area 110. The tab screen is switched in accordance with the tab designated by the user. In any tab screen, information indicating the state related to the storage system and / or an input object that can be operated by the user for the storage system is displayed.
- the tab screen illustrated in FIG. 1 is a tab screen 111 that is displayed when the user is designated by placing the mouse cursor 103 on the tab “Resource”.
- the tab screen 111 includes, for example, the following sub areas: (*) A sub area 181 in which a list of identification information of one or more resources belonging to the resource type specified by the user is displayed; (*) A sub area 183 in which a list of business operation types is displayed; (*) A sub area 185 in which a summary of resources specified by the user in the sub area 181 is displayed; (*) A sub area 187 in which details of the resource specified by the user in the sub area 181 are displayed.
- Information according to the management operation by the user is displayed in the first area 110. Specifically, for example, information related to the storage system is displayed on the tab screen of the tab designated by the user.
- a resource is a physical or logical component of a storage system or a host, such as a physical storage device, a physical storage device group, a controller, or a volume.
- the summary view includes status objects 122, 132, 142, and 152 for each status type related to the storage operation task, and an alert object 161, for example.
- the following four types of statuses related to storage operation tasks (A) “Running”, which means that the storage operation task is being executed, (B) “Waiting”, which means that the storage operation task is waiting to be executed (C) “Finished” which means that the storage operation task has been completed, and (D) “Error” which means that some error has occurred regarding the storage operation task, There is.
- the status types are not limited to these four types.
- the status types may be more or less than the four types, or at least one of the four types may be another status type.
- the status object 122 corresponds to the status “Running”
- the status object 132 corresponds to the status “Waiting”
- the status object 142 corresponds to the status “Finished”
- the status object 152 corresponds to the status “Error”. To do.
- Each status object includes an object representing the status type and a value representing the number of storage operation tasks belonging to the status type.
- the object representing the status type may include, for example, at least one of a figure (icon) representing the status type and a character string representing the name of the status type.
- the object representing the status type may include an object of a type different from the graphic and the character string.
- the alert object 161 is an object related to an alert generated when a hardware failure in the storage system is detected.
- the alert object 161 includes, for example, an object that represents an alert and a value that represents the number of alerts.
- the object representing the alert may include, for example, at least one of a graphic (icon) representing the alert and a character string representing the alert (for example, “New Alerts”).
- the object representing the alert may include an object of a different type from the graphic and the character string.
- the second area 120 is displayed without affecting the switching of the tab screen. That is, in the first area 110, the tab screen is switched according to the tab specified by the user, but the display of the second display 120 is not affected by the switching of the tab screen. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, when another tab “Report” is designated by the user, the tab screen is changed from the tab screen 111 shown in FIG. However, the display of the second area 120 is not changed in synchronization with the switching of the tab screen. As a result, even if a user operation is performed on a specific tab screen, the task state can be easily confirmed.
- no effect or “not changed synchronously” means that at least the second area 120 is “summary view regarding one or more storage operation tasks generated by performing a business operation from the user” This means that there is no influence or change in the purpose of “display”. For example, even if the display of the second area 120 is switched according to the switching of the tab screen, if the user who viewed the screen can recognize the same summary, for example, one or more of the following is the second Obviously, even if the display switching of the area 120 occurs in response to the switching of the tab screen, there is no influence on the grasp of the summary by the user. (*) The display position of the status object or alert object is changed. (*) The font of the status object or alert object is changed. (*) The icon indicating the status type of the status object is changed. The icon before and after the change means the same status type. (*) The icon representing the alert of the alert object is changed. Note that the icon before and after the change both indicate an alert.
- the status type indicated by the status object displayed in the second area 120 is not changed by switching the tab screen, or ( 2) The value indicating the number of storage operation tasks belonging to each status type does not change.
- the display dots in the second area 120 may not change when the tab screen is switched.
- the second example has the smallest screen display processing load compared to the other examples.
- the fact that the display dots on the screen display do not change in the Flash technology and Silverlight technology contributes to a reduction in the amount of communication between the client 555 and the server 557.
- the second area 120 is displayed so as not to overlap the first area 110 (particularly the tab screen).
- the second area 120 is a band-like area that is long in the left-right direction (horizontal direction), and is provided below the first area 110 (for example, at the bottom of the Web browser screen 101).
- the position of the second region 110 is not limited to the illustrated position.
- the second region 120 may be provided on the first region 110.
- the second region 120 is a strip-like region that is long in the vertical direction (longitudinal direction), and may be provided to the right or left of the first region 110.
- the second area 120 may be displayed on the front surface of the first area 110.
- the management client program is RIA. Therefore, the management client program may receive information from the server without issuing a request to the server. In other words, the server can provide information to the client without a request from the client (or asynchronously with the operation timing of the input device) rather than as a response to the request from the client.
- the server can provide information to the client without a request from the client (or asynchronously with the operation timing of the input device) rather than as a response to the request from the client.
- Example 1 When the server detects that the status of the storage operation task has changed, the server transmits information indicating the change of the storage operation task (hereinafter, task status change information) to the client. Specifically, for example, it is assumed that the display of the second area 120 at a certain time is as shown in FIG. 3A. Eventually, the storage operation task whose status is “Running” (that is, the task being executed) ends. When the server detects it, it sends task status change information to the client.
- task status change information indicating the change of the storage operation task
- the task status change information includes, for example, information indicating a decrease in the number of storage operation tasks belonging to a status where the number of storage operation tasks has decreased (here, “Running”), and a status where the number of storage operation tasks has increased (here, “Finished” "), And information indicating an increase in the number of storage operation tasks belonging to.
- the information indicating the decrease may be a value indicating the number of storage operation tasks after the decrease, or may be information indicating that the number has decreased by one.
- the information indicating the increase may be a value indicating the number of storage operation tasks after the increase, or may be information indicating that the number has increased by one.
- the management client program as can be seen by comparing FIG. 3A and FIG. (*) Reduce the number of storage operation tasks belonging to the status "Running" by one, (*)
- the display mode of the icon corresponding to the status “Finished” is set to a display mode for each predetermined time, and the number of storage operation tasks belonging to the status “Finished” is increased by 1. I do.
- the display mode of the icon may be any display mode as long as the display mode is different from the normal display mode of the icon.
- the display according to another display mode of the icon is a display in which the icon shines so that the range including the icon and the range wider than the icon shines in a light color as shown in FIG. 3B.
- This display ends when a certain time (for example, several seconds) elapses. That is, the display of the second area 120 transitions to the display shown in FIG. 3C after a certain time from the display shown in FIG. 3B.
- a certain time for example, several seconds
- the storage operation The display mode may change only for status objects whose status has increased (that is, the status that the storage operation task has transitioned to), so that the user can grasp the execution status of the storage operation task Therefore, it is considered preferable.
- Example 2 When the server detects any hardware failure related to the storage system (for example, controller failure, physical storage device failure), the server transmits information about hardware failure (hereinafter, alert information) to the client.
- the alert information includes, for example, information indicating that a hardware failure has occurred, and detailed information regarding the detected hardware failure (for example, identification information (for example, name) of the device in which the failure has occurred) May be included).
- the management client program changes the display mode of the alert object 161 in the second area 120. Specifically, for example, as can be seen from the comparison between FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B, the management client program increases the value representing the number of alerts by 1, and changes the display mode of the entire alert object 161 from the normal display mode. .
- the management client program displays the entire alert object 161 in red and blinks the red display.
- the display mode of the alert object 161 is not limited to the entire area, and only a part (for example, an icon or text) may be changed.
- the change of the display mode of the alert object 161 is not limited to blinking, but may be another change, for example, lighting.
- the above is an example of information actively transmitted from the server to the client.
- Example 1 as a change in the display mode of the status object, some highlighting is performed for a certain period of time, and then the highlighting is automatically ended (that is, without special user operation).
- the “special user operation” mentioned here may be, for example, a user operation for notifying the management client program that the user has noticed some highlighting of the status object.
- Example 2 As a change in the display mode of the alert object 161, some emphasis display (for example, blinking of a predetermined color display) continues until a special user operation is performed.
- the “special user operation” mentioned here may be, for example, a user operation (for example, click on the alert object 161) for notifying the management client program that the user has noticed some highlighting about the alert object 161. .
- the highlighting of the status object is finished after a certain time even if there is no special user operation, but the highlighting of the alert object 161 is highlighted when there is no special user operation.
- the user will be alerted, but since the highlighting of the status object will automatically end after a certain time, the strength of the alerting to the user is stronger with the highlighting of the status object.
- the alert object 161 is weaker than the highlighted display.
- the highlighting of the status object (highlighting that ends in a certain time without any special user operation) is referred to as “weak calling display”, and the alert object 161 is highlighted (finished by a special user operation). (Highlighting display) is called “strong call display”.
- the alert object 161 is displayed with a strong call and the status object is displayed with a weak call (a highlight that automatically ends after a certain period of time).
- the status of the storage operation task is changed more frequently as the number of storage operation tasks waiting for execution and / or being executed is increased. Nevertheless, if status object highlighting continues until there is a special user operation, all status objects will eventually be highlighted. Then, it is difficult for the user to understand the execution status of the storage operation task. From this point of view, the status object weak change display is preferable for the change of the status of the storage operation task.
- FIG. 5 shows the configuration of a computer system and a management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the computer system includes one or more hosts 553 and one or more storage systems 551 connected to the one or more hosts 553.
