®
RAID User Guide
How to Use this Document
The design of this user guide is to introduce StorVIew to its users, provide an explanation of the
interface through this quick tour section and provide a step-by-step approach to configuring up the
network settings when using the embedded version. If you are using the host-based version you
may skip Chapter 4.
The Getting Started chapter will walk you through starting StorView, upgrading the license if necessary,
and configuring E-mail, SNMP, and additional monitoring.
Chapter 6 walks you through the Storage Assistant, an automated wizard tool that allows StorView
to configure your storage system. If you will be manually configuring your storage system, you may
skip to Chapter 7.
Chapter 7 will step you through the entire process of configuring the storage solution from defining
disk arrays, assigning hot spares, and configuring the logical drives.
The remaining chapters deal with the more advanced features of SAN LUN Mapping, controller
environment monitoring and optimization, and modifying controller operational parameters. You will
also find information on advanced management of your storage including event logs and statistical
analysis.
