Storage Manager—Older storage management software that
I
provides the same basic functionality as Storage Manager Pro
but has the advantage of supporting the following additional
operating systems:
SuSE Linux 7.0 and 7.1
I
SCO Unixware
I
Red Hat 7.1
I
SCO OpenServer 5
I
FreeBSD 4.2, 4.3
I
Furthermore, Storage Manager provides additional features,
such as DMI agents, that are not yet available in Storage
Manager Pro. Use Storage Manager if you require the use of
one of the additional operating systems, or if you require a
feature that has not yet been incorporated into Storage
Manager Pro. The advantage of Storage Manager Pro over
Storage Manager is its newer GUI, and its consistent look and
feel across operating systems and between client and server
platforms. You can use either tool as the primary RAID
management utility. For details, refer to
RAIDUTIL Command Line Utility—Provides the same
I
functions as Storage Manager (or Storage Manager Pro) in
environments where a GUI is not available. It is also scriptable,
making it an invaluable companion RAID configuration utility
in environments where many similarly-configured RAID
subsystems must be replicated quickly. For details, refer to
Chapter
4.
Storage Manager On ROM (SMOR)—A built-in utility that is
I
part of the controller's BIOS code. You can start SMOR by
pressing Ctrl+A during BIOS startup. SMOR enables the user
to create RAID partitions prior to loading an operating system.
