Event Log Panel
The lower part of the MegaRAID Storage Manager window displays the system
event log entries. New event log entries appear during the session. Each entry
has a timestamp and date, an error level indicating the severity of the event, and
a brief description of the event.
Menu Bar
Here are brief descriptions of the main selections on the MegaRAID Storage Man-
ager menu bar.
File Menu
The File menu has an Exit option for exiting from the MegaRAID Storage Manager
software. It also has a Rescan option for updating the display in the MegaRAID
Storage Manager window. (Rescan is seldom required; the display normally updates
automatically.)
Operations Menu
The Operations menu is available when a controller, physical drive, or logical drive is
selected in the MegaRAID Storage Manager window. The Operations menu options
vary depending on what type of device is selected in the left panel of the MegaRAID
Storage Manager window. The options also vary depending on the current state of
the selected device. For example, if you select an offline physical drive, the Make
Drive Online option appears in the Operations menu.
You can also view the Operations selections on the main window on the Operations
tab in the right panel. If an operation requires user inputs before it can be executed,
it appears in the Operations tab but not in the Operations menu. A device-specific
Operations menu pops up if you right-click a device icon in the left panel.
An Advanced Operations submenu is also available. This is where you access the
Configuration Wizard and other configuration-related commands. To access this
menu, select Operations, Advanced Operations.
