You might want to review the following information before using the Adaptec Storage Manager:
You can use the Adaptec Storage Manager to configure, administer, and monitor controllers that are installed locally or remotely in your %SERVER%s or storage enclosures.
The first time you start the Adaptec Storage Manager, it will display only your local system. The local system is displayed in the Enterprise view "tree" and information about the system is displayed in the Physical and Logical device views, on the right.
Whenever you start the Adaptec Storage Manager after the first time, it will
display an unknown system icon
for any remote systems that you have added. When the Adaptec Storage Manager connects
with the remote systems, it will update the status in the tree.
