HP Virtual SAS Manager
HP Virtual SAS Manager (VSM) is embedded in the HP 3Gb SAS BL Switch firmware and is the
software application used to create hardware-based zone groups to control access to external SAS
storage. Servers in the c-Class enclosure are then granted access to these zone groups, allowing
them to access the storage.
Available in both a graphical user interface (GUI) and a command line interface (CLI), VSM offers
the following key tasks:
•
Enter switch parameters
•
Create zone groups
•
Assign zone groups to servers
•
Reset the switch
•
Update firmware
For information on the VSM, see its online help and the HP 3G Virtual SAS Manager user guide,
available on the HP 3Gb SAS BL Switch page of the HP Manuals website
http://www.hp.com/
support/manuals .
The following image shows an example page of the VSM.
IMPORTANT: Storage is configured, formatted, and partitioned using software utilities such as
the HP Array Configuration Utility (ACU), HP Storage Management Utility (SMU), and Microsoft
Disk Manager. Configuration tools differ for each storage enclosure and operating system
environment. For more information, see the QuickSpecs for the storage enclosure.
