Introduction
Manager
PowerFlex Manager provides IT operations management for Dell EMC PowerFlex rack and Dell EMC PowerFlex appliance. Efficiency increases by reducing time-consuming manual tasks that are required to manage system operations. You can use PowerFlex Manager to deploy and manage both new and existing environments.
PowerFlex Manager is distributed as a virtual appliance that runs a collection of interacting web applications that communicate through the REST interfaces. The PowerFlex Manager UI resides on the virtual appliance and provides full browser-based GUI access to interact with the PowerFlex Manager through the REST interfaces described in this guide.
Note: If you have a licensed version of PowerFlex Manager, this can be integrated with any custom UI or accessed through programs to enhance your automation experience.
Gateway
The REST API is served from the PowerFlex Gateway (which includes the REST gateway). The PowerFlex Gateway can be installed on any operating system that supports PowerFlex for its core components (MDM/SDS/SDC/LIA/XCACHE). PowerFlex Gateway connects to a single MDM and serves requests by querying the MDM and reformatting the answers it receives from the MDM in a RESTful manner, back to a REST client. PowerFlex Gateway requires the MDM username and password for the login request. In response, the login returns a token, which is used for the subsequent authentications for other requests. The PowerFlex REST API supports PowerFlex SCLI commands. The responses returned by the PowerFlex Gateway are in JSON format.
The API is available as part of the PowerFlex Gateway package. If you use the PowerFlex Installer to install PowerFlex, the PowerFlex Gateway is already installed and configured with the MDM details.

Pre-Requisites
The OpsRamp Gateway must be installed.
Configure and install the integration
- Go to Setup > Integrations and Apps.
- Click + ADD on the INSTALLED APP page. The ADD APP page displays all the available applications along with the newly created application with the version.
Notes:- If there are already installed applications, it will redirect to the INSTALLED APPS page, where all the installed applications are displayed.
- If there are no installed applications, it will navigate to the ADD APP page.
- You can even search for the application using the search option available. Also you can use the All Categories option to search.
- Click ADD in the Dell PowerFlex application.
- In the Configurations page, click + ADD. The Add Configuration page appears.
- Enter the below mentioned BASIC INFORMATION
Funtionality | Description |
---|---|
Name | Enter the name for the configuration. |
Dell PowerFlex Manager IP Address | IP address/host name of the Dell PowerFlex Manager. |
Dell PowerFlex Manager Credentials | Select a credential from the drop-down list. Note: Click + Add to create a credential. |
Dell PowerFlex Gateway IP Address | IP address/host name of the Dell PowerFlex Gateway. |
Dell PowerFlex Gateway Credentials | Select the credentials from the drop-down list. Note: Click + Add to create a credential. |
Port | Port Note: Default port value is 443. |
Notes:
- By default the Is Secure checkbox is selected.
- Select the following:
- App Failure Notifications: if enabled,
- an alert will be sent to the registered gateway resource, however, either Dell PowerFlex Gateway IP Address Credentials or Dell PowerFlex Manager IP Address Credentials should be provided.
- an alert is raised for connectivity, authentication exception
- Discovery - alert will be on a gateway resource that is registered with the application.
- Monitoring - alert will be on a particular Powerflex resource.
- Alert Polling: enables integrating third party alerts into OpsRamp using further configurations.
- Alert On Root Resource: polling alerts generated by on root resource.
- App Failure Notifications: if enabled,
- Below are the default values set for:
- Alert Severity Filter: provides severity alerts that get integrated out of all possible alerts.
- Default Values: ALERT_HIGH,ALERT_MEDIUM,ALERT_LOW.
- Possible Values: ALERT_HIGH,ALERT_MEDIUM,ALERT_LOW.
- Alert Severity Mapping: enables you to map the severities between Dell PowerFlex and OpsRamp as severities are predefined values in each system. Possible values of Alert Severity Mapping Filter configuration property are “ALERT_HIGH”:“Critical” ,ALERT_MEDIUM":‘‘Warning", “ALERT_LOW”:“Warning”
Note: You can change it as per your business use cases at any point in time from the Configuration page.
- Alert Severity Filter: provides severity alerts that get integrated out of all possible alerts.
In the RESOURCE TYPE section, select:
- ALL: All the existing and future resources will be discovered.
- SELECT: You can select one or multiple resources to be discovered.
In the DISCOVERY SCHEDULE section, select Recurrence Pattern to add one of the following patterns:
- Minutes
- Hourly
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
Click ADD.
Now the configuration is saved and displayed on the configurations page after you save it.
Note: From the same page, you may Edit and Remove the created configuration.Click NEXT
In the Installation page, select an existing registered gateway profile, and click FINISH.
The application is now installed and displayed on the Installed Integration page. Use the search field to find the installed application.

Risks, Limitations & Assumptions
- Application can handle Critical/Recovery failure notifications for below two cases when user enables App Failure Notifications in configuration
- Connectivity Exception
- Authentication Exception
- If App Failure Notifications are enabled, an alert will be sent, however, either Dell PowerFlex Gateway IP Address configurations or Dell PowerFlex Manager IP Address configurations should be provided.
- Application will not send any duplicate/repeat failure alert notification until the already existing critical alert is recovered.
- Application cannot control monitoring pause/resume actions based on above alerts Metrics can be used to monitor Dell PowerFlex resources and can generate alerts based on the threshold values.
- Dell PowerFlex Event/Alert polling will be started only if the user enables Alert Polling in configuration. Possible values of Alert Severity Filter configuration property are ALERT_LOW,ALERT_MEDIUM,ALERT_HIGH.
- OpsRamp has given sample mappings to map Dell PowerFlex Severity with OpsRamp Severities as part of Alert Severity Mapping configuration filed. User can modify them as per their use-case at any point of time from application configuration page. Possible OpsRamp Severities are Critical, Warning, Ok, Info.
- The availability is shown unknown for few resources even if it is enabled on the respective resource metrics. This is because of the presence of multiple native type resources under the same resource type.
