Using Adaptec Storage Manager – Browser Edition
The Basics
An example of a typical Adaptec Storage Manager – Browser
Edition screen is shown below.
Note:
Depending on your operating system, browser, and
color scheme you may notice some differences between this
illustration and your screen.
At the top of the screen is the header frame. In this area is the name
of the system that you are currently connected to and a number of
buttons that perform various actions or open additional windows.
The action buttons are Logout and Rescan. Selecting Logout will
end your session and return you to the Login screen.
Use the Rescan button to rescan the configuration of the system.
Typically, when a rescan is required, it occurs automatically, for
example, after an array is created.
It is possible for the system configuration to change without
Adaptec Storage Manager being notified. For example, drives
inserted/removed from a non-intelligent enclosure or an enclosure
powered on after you logged in to Adaptec Storage Manager.
The remaining buttons—Events, Options, Help, Properties, and
Tasks
—open additional windows that provide more detailed
information, allow you to perform actions or change settings on a
specific aspect of your storage subsystem.
Immediately following the header frame is a controller information
line including the model number of the first Adaptec RAID
controller found in the system and the amount of cache memory (if
any) installed on that controller.
