Managing your NAS with SmartNAVI
SmartNAVI software enables you to manage your VessRAID subsystem when it
is configured as Network Attached Storage (NAS). The NAS option requires:
• An iSCSI SAN data connection, see page 25.
• Logical drives configured for NAS, see page 53.
If you have not installed SmartNAVI, see “Installing SmartNAVI” on page 39.
Also see “Appendix A: Setting-up NAS Network Drives” on page 419.
Starting SmartNAVI
During installation, SmartNAVI is configured to start automatically when you boot
your PC. If you quit SmartNAVI without rebooting, or you disable the autostart
feature, you must start SmartNAVI manually.
To start SmartNAVI manually, go to the Start menu and choose (All) Programs >
Promise > SmartNAVI and click the SmartNAVI icon.
The SmartNAVI screen appears on your desktop.
