This section describes the two primary configuration views, which
are:
■ Physical Configuration View
■ Logical Configuration View (includes Logical Device
Addresses)
Physical Configuration View
The first window displayed by Storage Manager is the Physical
Configuration View (see Figure 3-2). This window displays each
RAID controller in the system along with the peripheral buses and
attached devices. Icons representing hard drives, CD-ROMs, tapes,
bridge controllers, and jukeboxes are displayed. Devices are sorted
by controller number and device ID from lowest to highest.
RAID hard drive icons contain the word “RAID”. Hot spare icons
have a red circle with a white cross. Select Legend of Icons from
the Storage Manager Help menu to see a list of the various icons
and their meaning.
