Logical Configuration Sequence - IBM DS8000 User Manual

Figure 7. Logical configuration sequence
The storage management software can be used in real-time or simulated modes.
When you are connected to storage devices over your network, you can use the
Real-time Manager to manage your hardware or configure your storage. When you
want to work offline, you can use the Simulated Manager to create or import a
configuration. This lets you export a configuration that you have already created to
a system when it reaches your site.
