The Adaptec Storage Manager screen includes the header frame and the controller frame. Some displays may appear slightly different depending on your operating system, browser, and color scheme.
At the top of the Adaptec Storage Manager screen is the header frame. The local host system that you are currently managing is displayed.
Rescan—Manually rescan your storage system when disk drives are hot-swapped, inserted or removed from a non-intelligent enclosure, or when an enclosure is powered on after you already logged in to Adaptec Storage Manager. Typically, a rescan occurs automatically, for example, after an array is created.
Logout—Logout to end your session and return to the Login screen.
Options—Determine whether to hide or show second level arrays, how frequently you want updates to occur, whether the highlight on mouse-over is activated, and the display frequency of the popup tool.
Note: When the
highlight on mouse-over is active, positioning the cursor over a device
or button displays an information window.
Help—Displays the name and the version number of this application. Also displays a link to launch this help system. Contact information for technical support and Adaptec sales is also shown.
Events—Displays the Event Viewer and the Event Notification windows. A list of status changes and conditions that have occurred are listed in the Event Viewer. Use the Event Notification window to select the type of events included in the event log, what events should be identified in the popup alerts, and to identify the email accounts that should receive alerts.
Properties—When a controller or device is selected, displays controller and device properties.
Tasks—When you select an array or disk, displays current and scheduled tasks and allows you to set new tasks or change previously scheduled tasks.
