The Subsystem Management Window is Java-based software that is launched from the Enterprise Management Windowand provides the following primary storage subsystem management functions:
Provides the ability to configure logical drives from your storage subsystem capacity, define hostsand host groups, and grant host or host group access to sets of logical drives called storage partitions
Monitors the health of storage subsystem components and reports a detailed status using appropriate icons
Provides you with the appropriate recovery procedures for a failed logical or physical component
Presents a view of the storage subsystem Event Log
Presents profile information about physical components such as controllers and drives
The Logical/Physical View presents a picture of the organization of storage subsystem capacity into logical entities called arraysand logical drives. It also presents a picture of the physical devices in the storage subsystem, such as controllers, drives, and other components. Selection of a logical drive or other logical entity shows you which physical components are associated with that entity.
The Mappings View allows you to define topological elements (host groups, hosts, and host ports), and define and change logical drive-to-LUN mappingsto grant logical drive access to host groups and hosts and create storage partitions.
