Step 7: Registering Your iSCSI Storage Appliance
If you didn’t register your iSCSI Storage Appliance at the end of “Step 2:
Configuring the iSCSI Storage Appliance” on page 36, you will be prompted to
register again when:
• You next log in to the Management Service. Adaptec Storage Manager finds any
unregistered iSCSI Storage Appliances associated with that Management Service
and prompts you to register each one individually.
• You next view or change the configuration settings on that iSCSI Storage
Appliance in the wizard.
You must register your iSCSI Storage Appliance to receive notification of new
software releases and updates, and to receive technical support.
Beginning to Use Your IP SAN
Once setup is complete, use Adaptec Storage Manager to manage and monitor your
IP SAN.
Logging In To Adaptec Storage Manager Next Time
Once your IP SAN is set up, each time you start Adaptec Storage Manager, any
Management Services on the iSCSI Storage branch will be grayed out.
To begin a new session on Adaptec Storage Manager, click on the grayed out
Management Service.
Unless you enable the ‘Save User’ feature when you log in to the Management
Service (see page 35), you will be prompted to enter a user name and password.
Once you have logged in and the connection to the Management Service is re-
established, all iSCSI Storage Appliances and iSCSI Storage Hosts associated with
that Management Service appear in the Enterprise View and you can begin to
monitor and manage your IP SAN.
