Phone Home Support

You Can Not Delete Files or Folders From an iSCSI Disk
If an iSCSI disk is mounted to a folder, not a letter drive, in Windows you will not
be able to delete files and folders inside that mount point. The Windows Recycle Bin
does not understand mount points, so to avoid this problem either mount iSCSI
disks to letter drives on your Windows OS, or hold down the shift key while
deleting folders or files.
Phone Home Support
Once your Snap Server has been registered, Phone Home Support becomes
available for use. Phone Home Support emails system logs and files that contain
information useful for troubleshooting purposes to Adaptec technical support. You
can use the
Monitoring > Support
or, in the course of working to resolve an issue, a technical support representative
may ask you to fill out and submit this page. If a case is already in progress, you
will need to enter the case number provided by the technical support
representative.
Phone Home Support interacts with two fields on the

Notification
server IP address on the Email Notification screen; and (2) the first email address
listed in the Recipient(s) field populates the Admin Email Address field on the
