A.1 Product Description
The GUI RAID Manager,
“Altos RAIDWatch,”
is a Java-based program specifically designed for use
in managing disk array systems implemented using standalone RAID controllers (GUI is an acronym
of “Graphic User Interface.”)
Altos RAIDWatch provides a user-friendly interface that facilitates understanding of the
relationship between disk array elements and simplifies the normally complicated process of array
configuration. Altos RAIDWatch also provides real-time reporting on the status of the entire array,
thus making the task of monitoring disk arrays virtually effortless. Since the release of software
revision 1.31, Event Monitor is supplemented for use with a constant monitoring of multiple disk
arrays.

• User-friendly graphical interface running under operating systems compatible with the Java
