RAID Xanadu User Manual page 2

At this time, we would like to thank you for purchasing RAID Inc. products.
This manual is written at the level of an individual who is capable of server system construction and
network setup. It is for systems that meet the following conditions.
Connected servers and OS:
Windows or Linux supported by RAID Storage program products
For details, refer to the "RAID Storage Manager Installation Guide", as well as
the "RAID Storage PathManager Installation Guide" and "RAID Storage
ControlCommand Installation Guide", depending on your purchase.
* Xanadu-beta version supports only Windows and Linux servers (excluding the
Itanium
Processor Familiy).
Configuration: Storage Area Network and Direct Attached Storage configurations containing
the sample recommended configuration in the figure below
Other: Fibre Channel switches and modems are not covered.
* These require separate setup by maintenance personnel.
Chapters 7 through 14 of this manual describe facilities that are restricted to Windows and Linux
environments.
To use them in another operating system environment, ask your maintenance service agent, since
maintenance personnel of the maintenance service agent will configure the RAID Storage unit.
This guide explains the general methods used in setting up RAID Storage itself, installing RAID Storage
Manager, and installing RAID Storage ControlCommand.
Prepare in advance for program products for which a license sheet is included.
