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 controller that
has Windows or Linux and a supported browser.
Remotely manage any system containing a supported Adaptec RAID control-
ler that has Managed System Components (see Typical, Custom, and Com-
pact 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 Stor-
age Manager on the system and use the Adaptec-supplied version of
Mozilla as the browser.
