Storage management utilities

The storage management utilities pre-installed on the storage system include the HP Array Configuration
Utility (ACU).

Array management utilities

Storage devices for RAID arrays and LUNs are created and managed using the array management
utilities mentioned previously. For HP Smart Arrays use the ACU.

NOTE:

The ACU is used to configure and manage array-based storage. You need administrator or root privileges
to run the ACU.

Array Configuration Utility

The HP ACU supports the Smart Array controllers and SCSI hard drives installed on the storage system.

To open the ACU from the storage system desktop:

NOTE:

If this is the first time that the ACU is being run, you will be prompted to select the Execution Mode for
ACU. Selecting Local Application Mode allows you to run the ACU from a Remote Desktop, Remote Console,
or storage system web access modes. Remote Service Mode allows you to access the ACU from a remote
browser.
