    Hi all, 

    Quick question, ibm_svc has support for IBM Storwize V7000 Unified? we has been looking for this for a while but don't found anything.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks, David,
    The documentation is not specific about support for v7000 unified . Can we assume that the V7000 and V7000 unified storage systems are supported and certified in the current version of the ibm_svc probe?
    Regards,

    That's all there is, there is nothing specifying beyond V7000, based on that it should work.

    The IBM SVC Monitoring probe monitors the following components of IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller (SVC) and IBM V7000 storage systems as mentioned by David Michel.

    The V7000 Unified provides the ability to combine both block and file storage into a single system, built on the functions and high performance design of the IBM V7000 and integrates proven IBM software capabilities to deliver new levels of efficiency.

    In terms of support: the IBM V7000 unified is not supported and only the IBM V7000 is supported

    For more details about supported V7000, please refer to the following link:
