When your DS3500 Storage Subsystem is fully configured, the Save Configuration option
lets you save storage subsystem logical settings, logical drive configuration, topology, and
mappings to the text file in form of script file, that also can be used by SMcli command line
interface. If there are individual topology items or logical drives that you do not want to include
in the saved configuration, you can edit the script file, after it is saved. Also you can use some
modified SMcli commands from this file to create a new logical devices in your storage
subsystem. More information about SMcli are in
on page

The age of the battery

The nonvolatile static random access memory (NVSRAM) settings
Any premium features
