By knowing what these types of messages are, the system
administrator can then configure Netfinity Manager with
instructions for monitoring the server configuration and
specifying the appropriate action to take if an alert is
issued. For example, the system administrator can
program Netfinity Manager to dial out through a modem to
a specified phone number if a defunct drive is detected on
any server across the network.

Creating Disk Arrays
To create a disk array:
1. Click on the icon on the tool bar or select
Manage Disk Arrays from the Advanced pull-down
menu; then, select Create Disk Array.
Disk arrays provide access to hard disk drives
in a logical manner. Hard disk drives are
grouped in a disk array, and divided into
logical drives for access by the operating
system.
