Array Configuration Utility

The Array Configuration Utility (ACU) software for Smart Array controllers, the
StorageWorks RAID Array 4x00 family of products, and the StorageWorks
MSA1000 controller makes it easy to configure and expand disk drive arrays
remotely. This Web-based tool is intuitive; by using its Configuration Wizards, an
array controller can be set-up and ready to use in minutes. ACU also can be used to
locally or remotely configure an array controller, add additional disk drives to an
existing configuration, or reconfigure a disk drive array.
Features such as Online Capacity Expansion, Logical Drive Capacity Extension, and
RAID Level Migration allow you to change an array configuration and settings as
your storage needs grow.
ACU can be run from the local host machine or remotely from a client computer on
machines running an operating system that ACU supports.
For more information on ACU, to download the utility, or to access the Array
Configuration Utility User Guide, refer to

management/acumatrix/index.html
The ACU can be run either as a local-only application or as a service that can be
accessed remotely.
Step 1—Running ACU as a Local-Only Application
During installation (or later by running setup), choose to install ACU as a local-only
application.
Click Start, and then select Programs, HP System Tools, Array Configuration
Utility. The ACU opens a Web browser window and launches the ACU. The ACU
