Overview
Adaptec Storage Manager provides an expandable tree view of the systems and
controllers you are managing. You can perform most configuration and management
tasks by selecting a controller from the tree and working with related objects. The
figure below shows how Adaptec Storage Manager displays information about Physi-
cal and Logical devices.
Using the buttons in the Physical devices and Logical devices views, you can:
Change how drives are displayed
Collapse and expand a view
Identify components of a logical device
Create and delete hotspares
Physical Devices View
This view displays information about the drives, enclosures, and other physical
devices attached to the controller. The devices are organized numerically. The dis-
play for each channel or port includes information on maximum speed, the number of
the channels on the controller, and the number of devices attached to the controller.
Indicators, next to the controller name, report status of the fan and temperature
