Installation
The ATTO ConfigTool includes two components: a
GUI Application and a system service. Either, or both,
of these components can be installed on a host,
depending on the functionality desired. This creates
several different use cases, described below:
• A host with both the GUI Application and the
system service installed will be able to
discover and manage local and remote
hosts. This is the most comprehensive
management capability. During installation
of the ATTO ConfigTool select FULL
installation for this coverage level.
• A host with only the GUI Application installed
will be able to discover and manage remote
hosts. This host will not be able to discover
and manage any ATTO storage controllers
installed on the same host. During
installation of the ATTO ConfigTool select
APPLICATION ONLY for this coverage
level.
• A host with only the system service installed
can be discovered and managed remotely,
but it cannot be managed locally (the GUI
Application is required for local
management). It is common to have multiple
hosts with only the system service installed
being managed by a single host remotely.
To set up a host without any local
management capabilities, refer to the OS
specific instructions below.
