Working with systems in the Adaptec Storage Manager

You can use the Adaptec Storage Manager to view information about managed systems, controllers, and the Adaptec Storage Manager subsystem (such as disk groups, logical devices, hot-spare drives, and physical drives).

To view information, click an object in the Enterprise view or the Physical or Logical device views; then, click  (Properties) on the toolbar. Using preferences, you can sort tree objects alphabetically or chronologically.

Note: The local system always appears first when you sort the tree alphabetically.

To display available actions for an item, right-click the item in the Enterprise view, Physical devices view, or Logical devices view.

You can use the following actions and applications in the Adaptec Storage Manager to modify or monitor other Adaptec Storage Manager systems in a network:

• Add or remove a remote system
• Notification Manager
• Security Manager
• Email Notification Manager
• Task Manager
• Adaptec Storage Manager agent

To configure a new controller with the Configuration wizard, click (Create) on the toolbar or in the Logical devices view.
