Using Adaptec Storage Manager – Browser Edition
1. Overview
This section describes how to use Adaptec Storage Manager – Browser
Edition to manage arrays. Once you are logged in, you will find convenient
online help to guide you through the details of creating, configuring, and
managing arrays.
With Adaptec Storage Manager, you can:
Locally manage a system containing a supported Adaptec RAID con-
troller that has Windows or Linux and a supported browser.
Remotely manage any system containing a supported Adaptec RAID
controller that has Managed System Components (see
Typical, Custom,
and Compact Installations
). You can manage a system remotely from a
system that does not contain a RAID controller.
These same Windows and Linux systems can also be managed remotely by
either of these methods:
Installing Adaptec Storage Manager on the remote system.
Directing the browser on the remote system to the system you want to
manage.

Your controller may not support all of the features described. In
most cases if a feature is not supported by your controller the
feature does not appear in the interface.

To manage an array remotely from a Linux system, install Adaptec
Storage Manager on the system and use the Adaptec-supplied ver-
sion of Mozilla as the browser.
