Naming Or Renaming Storage Arrays
You can name, rename, and add comments to a storage array to facilitate identification of the storage array.
Follow these guidelines to name a storage array:
• Each storage array must be assigned a unique alphanumeric name up to 30 characters long.
• A name can consist of letters, numbers, and the special characters underscore (_), dash (–), and pound sign (#).
No other special characters are allowed.
To rename a selected storage array:
1. Perform one of these actions:
– In the AMW, select Setup → Rename Storage Array.
– In the EMW, select Devices tab Tree view, select Edit → Rename.
– In the EMW, Devices tab Tree view, right-click the desired array icon and select Rename.
The Rename Storage Array dialog is displayed.
2. Type the new name of the storage array.
NOTE: Avoid arbitrary names or names that may lose meaning in the future.
3. Click OK.
A message is displayed warning you about the implications of changing the storage array name.
4. Click Yes.
The new storage array name is displayed in the EMW.
5. Repeat step 1 through step 4 to name or rename additional storage arrays.
Setting A Password
You can configure each storage array with a password to protect it from unauthorized access. The MD Storage
Manager prompts for the password when an attempt is made to change the storage array configuration, such as, when
a virtual disk is created or deleted. View operations do not change the storage array configuration and do not require a
password. You can create a new password or change an existing password.
To set a new password or change an existing password:
1. In the EMW, select the relevant storage array and open the AMW for that storage array.
The AMW for the selected storage array is displayed.
2. In the AMW, select the Setup tab, and click Set a Storage Array Password.
The Set Password dialog is displayed.
