Setting the Standard Unit of Measure
You can set ICP Storage Manager to show disk drive capacity in measures of megabytes (MB),
gigabytes (GB), or terabytes (TB).
You can choose the Auto-select setting to allow ICP Storage Manager to show the most
appropriate unit of measure based on disk drive size. This option allows different disk drives to
be shown in different units of measure. By default, disk drives are shown in GB.
To change the standard unit of measure:
1
In the menu bar of the main window, select File, then click Preferences.
2
Click the Display options tab.
3
In the Capacity display units drop-down menu, select the option you want.
4
Click OK.
The change is applied immediately.
Changing the Main Window Appearance
You can choose to remove the tool bar and status bar from the main ICP Storage Manager
window to save space on-screen. You can also choose to turn off the Tool Tips that
automatically appear when you place your cursor over on-screen items.
To change the appearance of the main window, in the menu bar select View. The options in the
View menu are toggle switches, which means they can be selected and deselected by clicking them.
Managing Remote Systems
ICP Storage Manager has a wizard to help you manage the remote systems in your storage
space. The wizard simplifies the process of connecting to remote systems from the local system
and adding them to the Enterprise View.
When you start ICP Storage Manager, an "auto-discovery" task runs in the background,
continuously searching your network for systems running the ICP Storage Manager Agent. The
wizard presents a list of discovered systems. You can select systems to add to the Enterprise
View when you start ICP Storage Manager. You can also remove systems you no longer want to
manage.
