10-1 Overview of Storage Subsystem Operations
System administrators and storage administrators can add storage subsystems to Device Manager, remove
storage subsystems from Device Manager, and edit storage subsystem properties. Guests can only view
information about storage subsystems. Local system administrators, local storage administrators, and local
guests cannot manipulate storage subsystems.
Device Manager storage subsystem operations include:
•
Viewing the list of storage subsystems (see section
10-1-1
)
•
Adding a storage subsystem (see section
10-1-2
)
•
Viewing and editing storage subsystem properties (see section
10-1-3
)
•
Performing a refresh operation (see section
10-1-4
)
•
Adding a new IP address (see section
10-1-5
)
•
Removing a storage subsystem (see section
10-1-6
)
•
Performing a LUN scan (see section
8-3
)
NOTE:
If you used a subsystem-management tool other than Device Manager to change the user ID,
password, or IP address that were specified when the storage subsystem was added, you need to update
the information registered in Device Manager. (See sections
10-1-3
and
10-1-5
)
NOTE:
If you change the storage subsystem configuration, you should back up the new information. For
details, refer to the manual for the corresponding storage subsystem.
10-1-1 Viewing a List of Storage Subsystems
The Subsystems object in Device Manager Web Client navigation frame (see
Figure 10-1
) displays a list of the
storage subsystems being managed by Device Manager and provides access to the storage subsystem
operations.
