Installing the ServeRAID Manager program

The ServeRAID Manager program is an IBM ServeRAID program that monitors your ServeRAID
controllers while your operating system is up and running.
The ServeRAID Manager program for Microsoft Windows NT, 95, and 98, Novell NetWare, IBM OS/2 and
SCO UnixWare provides a graphical interface that you can use to monitor ServeRAID configuration
changes being performed on your server while your server is fully operational. You can create an array,
delete an array, create a logical drive, change the RAID level, dynamically increase the logical drive size,
rebuild an array, configure your ServeRAID controllers in a failover environment, configure a cluster, and
perform other ServeRAID configuration functions.
