Appendix B
Accessing Disk Array
Administrator Software
The remaining appendices of the Guide describe how to manage your Galaxy 65 Subsystem using the
menu-based Disk Array Administrator.
You can display and change a variety of settings using the Disk Array Administrator software. Using the
Disk Array Administrator, you can:
• Create and manage arrays
• Monitor system status
• Manage spares
• Configure the Galaxy 65 Subsystem
• Manage disk drives and enclosures
You can access the Disk Array Administrator software using the RS-232 serial port or the Ethernet port
connections on the SMs. You must connect a computer with terminal emulator software to the serial or
Ethernet port.
Each SM has one RS-232 and one Ethernet port. You have access to all host and disk ports on all
installed LRC I/O modules from either SM. However, you can only manage arrays and dedicated spares
from the SM where the array was created, that is, each SM can only see its own arrays and dedicated
spares. Each SM can see all pool spares and available drives (drives not used in an array or as a
dedicated spare).
You must perform some configuration functions from the SM where you want the change to take place:
• Updating firmware
• Configuring LAN settings
• Creating and managing arrays, partitions, and dedicated spares
