NOTE:
The DAE3P-OS is the first DAE enclosure that is connected to the
CX3-series (including all of the storage systems listed above). Core software is
preinstalled on the first five hard drives of the DAE3P-OS.
Each storage system in the cluster is centrally managed by one host system
(also called a
management station
) running EMC Navisphere
®
Manager—a
centralized storage management application used to configure Dell|EMC
storage systems. Using a graphical user interface (GUI), you can select a
specific view of your storage arrays, as shown in Table 1-4.
