The disks drives are shown as Offline. To start using one, right-click it, select Online, and
then Initialize. After that, click the Unallocated space to partition the disk and assign a drive
letter.
Storage Manager provides another utility to display the logical drives mapped. You can
access this utility by opening your Storage Manager installation directory and run the
SMdevices utility from a command prompt. Once you run the utility, you will see the output
shown in Example 4-1.

Note that so far we updated the storage system to the latest level, configured logical drives,
set up storage partitioning, and configured you host system. The next step is to define the
alerting methods to be used in case of failures.
