Controller Selection Frame

The Controller Selection frame is located in the upper left corner of the Main
Configuration screen. A drop-down menu lists all the controllers that are
installed in the present system and available to view or configure. Highlighting
the controller you want to view or configure activates the option buttons on the
right side of the screen.

Logical/Physical Configuration View Screen

The Logical/Physical Configuration View provides a graphical representation
of all the drives and arrays associated with the selected controller. Located
next to each controller icon is the name of the controller and the slot in which
it is installed.

For each controller, the drive arrays, logical drives, and physical drives
associated with that controller are listed. Use the Drive View buttons, located
below the Logical/Physical Configuration View frame, to select either the
logical or physical viewing option.

The figure below shows an example of the Physical Drive View screen for an
Integrated Smart Array Controller in the Array Configuration Utility. This
controller has two drive arrays; Array A contains one 9.1-GB hard drive, and
Array B contains one 4.3-GB hard drive. The port allocations and ID numbers
for each physical drive are also shown in this view option.
