4 Managing HPE StoreEasy 1000 Storage

After you have completed the initial setup of the system using the ICT window, use Windows
Server Manager to manage the system. The Server Manager is automatically launched when
you close ICT. You can also launch Server Manager from the HPE StoreEasy 1000 Storage
desktop by clicking the shortcut icon on the task bar. The local HPE StoreEasy 1000 Storage
system as well as other Windows servers may be managed, as described in the Manage Multiple,
Remote Servers with Server Manager article on Microsoft TechNet.
Windows Server Manager can also be used for remote management of HPE StoreEasy 1000
Storage by installing it on a Windows 8 client as part of Remote Server Administration tools. To
download the tools, go to Microsoft Download Center.
NOTE: The Tools menu of Windows Server Manager is not applicable to a remote system
under management. It applies only to the local system.
Many storage related tasks are accomplished with the File and Storage Services option in
Server Manager. The Tools menu contains the common utilities familiar to Windows
administrators. The Tools→StoreEasy menu group contains HPE-specific management tools
as well as some of the commonly used Windows tools related to managing a system. The
Tools→StoreEasy menu contains the following options:
