Storage Management Appliance Software User Guide

Options on the secondary navigation bar give you access to the Storage
Management Appliance features. Your ability to access features depends on your
assigned privilege level. See “

User Privilege Levels

” on page 27 for information

about privilege levels. See

Appendix C

for a reference table of the privilege levels

required to use various features.

Online Help

The Storage Management Appliance online help describes and provides
instructions for every task you can perform with the SMA software. The help is
accessible from the primary navigation bar in two ways to let you find information
quickly. The Help button opens the Storage Management Appliance help system,
which has three types of navigation—Contents, Index, and Search. Clicking the
question mark “?” displays a context-sensitive help topic describing the current
software page.

Content Pane

The Content pane (

) contains information formatted as a links page or as

a task page. A links page contains several links that provide access to major
feature sets.
