After the username and password are validated, CAPM displays a window
requesting the user to select the system to partition (Figure 4–4). CAPM then
connects to the selected GS80/160/320 system and discovers its configuration.
(If conflicting connections or locks exist in ConsoleWorks to this system, CAPM
displays an error dialog showing the conflicts.) The discovery phase can take up
to several minutes; the length of time depends on the size of the system and the
number of consoles that have been configured in ConsoleWorks. Do not
minimize the screen during the discovery phase or use the SMC system for any
other operation. When the discovery phase is complete, CAPM displays a
partition map for the current system configuration.
