Option Description
Change
Privilege By default, the CIMBrowser opens with end-user privileges and is limited to read-only information. In
order to send commands to devices the user is required to obtain administrator privileges (see below).
Entering the correct password will grant administrator privileges.
Change
Password This feature will, if the user is logged in as an administrator, allow the user to change the
adminstrator's password.
Logout
Admin This will logout the adminstrator and return to end-user based functionality.
The only commands currently supported are for the management of the Dell PV22XS enclosure. These commands
can be invoked by accessing the sub-menu of the Dell PV22XS SCSI Device in the tree structure.
Hardware Device Tree Options
The hardware device tree provides an easily navigated list of the devices being monitored by the CIM Browser.
Clicking on a device in the tree provides information about the device. Figure 3.1 illustrates the structure of the
hardware device tree for SCSI and for SCSI with IM. Table 3-2. describes each level in the device trees.
The status of the device is given by a green status icon, a yellow status icon, or a red status icon that appears in the
right-hand window. A green status icon indicates that the device is functioning properly. A yellow status icon indicates
that there is a problem with the device and the CIM Browser cannot identify the problem. A red status icon indicates
that there is a problem with the device and the CIM Browser can identify the problem.
On the IM Volume and Physical Disk levels, the CIM Browser displays a floppy disk icon if the media is present. If
the media is not present, as could be the case with removable media such as CD-ROMs or tape drives, the CIM
Browser displays a floppy drive with an "X."
