For Information about the Array Configuration Utility

Go to the ACU website at
storage/software-management/acumatrix/index.html.
The ACU makes it easy to configure your disk drive arrays. This browser-based
tool is intuitive, allowing you to configure your storage with just a few keystrokes.
You can use the ACU locally or remotely to add additional disk drives to an
existing configuration or completely reconfigure your arrays. Innovative features
allow you to change your array configuration and settings as your storage needs
change.
Complete the Worksheet on the Configuration Overview Poster and
Record Information about your MSA1000 Installation
The MSA1000 can be deployed into many different physical configurations, from
relatively simple single–path setups with one server connected to the MSA1000,
to more complex multi-path and clustered–server setups. In addition, the
MSA1000 can operate in a variety of different operating system environments.
Because the MSA1000 can be deployed into such varied environments and
configurations, it is important that you clearly define and outline your installation
and obtain all of the necessary components before installing your MSA1000.
Use the Configuration Overview poster (printed and included in the shipping
carton with your MSA1000) to guide you through the analysis process of defining
your MSA1000 installation plans and gathering all of the required items.
Go to Appendix C:
table in this guide with the worksheet on the poster.
Complete one or both of the worksheets, whichever format you prefer.
Note:
some of the information is required for zoning, multi-pathing, future configuration
changes, and troubleshooting purposes.
