Management will establish a new connection. See ―Making Web Server
Settings‖ on page 117.
I can access the ASUS Storage Management over my company's intranet.
But I can't access it from an outside Internet connection. How do I make the
Internet connection work?
This condition is not related to ASUS Storage subsystem, but is due to your
firewall and network connection protocol. Contact your MIS Administrator.
With some subsystems, I used the server's IP address in the RAID
management software to connect with the subsystem. Why is this ASUS
Storage different?
The ASUS Storage subsystem has the server software embedded. With
ASUS Storage, you point your browser directly to the subsystem rather than
a server. Also, with ASUS Storage, you do not have to create a subsystem
because the subsystem already exists.
Why can a RAID 1 logical drive on ASUS Storage consist of only two disk
drives?
On ASUS Storage, RAID 1 logical drives work in mirrored physical drive
pairs. You could create up to eight RAID 1 logical drives. Or you can create a
single RAID 10 logical drive with data mirroring and up to 16 physical drives.
If you have an odd number of drives but still want data mirroring, use RAID
1E.
See ―Installing Your Disk Drives‖ on page 16 and ―Introduction to RAID‖ on
page 319 for more information on the number of physical drives you can use
for each RAID level.
Are logical drives on ASUS Storage limited to 2 TB?
No. But verify that your operating system supports logical drives over 2 TB.
Also, for the operating system to recognize the full capacity of logical drives
over 2 TB, you must specify a sector size of 1 KB or larger when you create
the logical drive. See ―Choosing Sector Size‖ on page 336 or more
information.
Do I have to install ASUS Storage Management on my network server?
No. Use ASUS Storage Management embedded with the ASUS Storage
subsystem.
How can I be sure everything is working OK on the ASUS Storage
subsystem?
Locally: The ASUS Storage subsystem has LEDs on the front to monitor the
status of power, field replaceable units (FRUs) and logical drives. When
these are green, ASUS Storage is functioning normally.
