Figure 18. WebPAM Interface.
The WebPAM user interface has two main views and one optional view:
Tree View – Displays the elements of your RAID system. It works like
Windows Explorer with hierarchical menus. You can expand individual
items to see their components.
Management Window – Displays functions of the component selected
in Tree View and the choices you can make to manage it. Most of your
work is done in this window.
Event Frame – This view is optional. Click on the View in the Promise
window (not the Browser) to show the Event Frame. The Event Frame
displays detailed information on each RAID event as it happens. You
can use this as a record to monitor changes such as array initialization
and rebuilding, as well as any processes that may have failed to
execute.
The first time you log in to WebPAM, there will be no Users or RAIDs on
the system. Promise recommends creating the Host(s) first, then
Creating the User(s).
