6. If a Dell OpenManage Array Manager window with buttons such as Create Volume or Create Virtual Disk displays,
click the task you want to perform, or close the window to view the Array Manager console.
NOTE: To automatically launch Array Manager into the console window, ensure that Show this window at
start-up is not selected.
Array Manager Console
The Array Manager console display uses a tree view to display storage objects in the left pane of the window and tabbed
views in the right pane to display additional information about storage objects. The following subsections provide more
information about the left and right panes.
Left Pane
The left pane shows objects that the Array Manager software detects. The major storage objects are the local system object,
arrays, disks, and volumes. By clicking the plus sign (+) in front of a storage object, you can see the subordinate storage
objects under that object.
Arrays represent the physical and logical storage subsystems connected to RAID controllers.
Disks represent the disks recognized by the Microsoft® Windows® Powered operating system.
Volumes include dynamic RAID volumes created in Array Manager, primary and extended partitions, and logical drives
associated with extended partitions.
My Network Places, History, and Favorites provides remote connection functionality not supported by the NAS
system and should be ignored.
Right Pane
The right pane identifies the various objects and their status and displays any error conditions that might exist. The four
tabbed views in the right pane include the following:
The General tab displays parameters based on the objects you select in the console's tree view.
The parameters for Disks are as follows:
Name is the name of the object.
Status can vary, depending on the object. Common status conditions are Online, Healthy, and
Resynching.
Type identifies the object, such as Basic Disk.
Disk Group shows an entry for disks in a basic or dynamic group.
Capacity is the maximum size of the disk.
Unallocated Space is the amount of free hard-drive space still available.
Graphical Layout is a graphical representation of how much of the disk is being used.
Progress shows the current progress (percentage of completion) for tasks.
Device is the type of disk: All of the drives on the NAS system are SCSI drives.
Port identifies the controller card. A SCSI port has zero or more target IDs, and a target ID has one or
more logical unit numbers (LUNs).
LUN is the logical unit number.
Target is the SCSI ID that uniquely identifies the disk on the controller card.
