The IBM Storage Configuration Manager is a systems management application
used for managing and configuring SAS and storage devices.
Storage Configuration Manager uses Web-based standards. You can install it to run
as a standalone application or as an application launched from IBM Director 5.20.2
or later to manage IBM Director storage managed objects.
Note:
The Storage Configuration Manager IBM Director extension launches Storage
Configuration Manager tasks from the IBM Director Console. The Storage
Configuration Manager Director Extension must be installed on both of the

Storage Configuration Manager features a web based console that can
communicate to remote SAS connectivity modules or SAS RAID controller
modules in the BladeCenter S chassis.
Use the Storage Configuration Manager for SAS connectivity module software to
configure zoning for the installed SAS connectivity modules in your BladeCenter S
chassis.
Use the Storage Configuration Manager for SAS RAID controller module software
to configure storage pools and volumes for the installed SAS RAID controller
modules in your BladeCenter S chassis

a keyboard and mouse, and a video connector for attaching a monitor to the
BladeCenter S chassis.
The advanced management module provides a method for performing installation
tasks, system management tasks and, if necessary, problem determination. You
should either plan for a mobile keyboard, mouse, and monitor that can be attached
to a specific BladeCenter S chassis when needed, or plan for rack space to install a
keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
