Updating and Customizing
Adaptec Storage Manager
This chapter explains how to customize Adaptec Storage Manager as your
requirements change and update it as new versions become available.

Updating Adaptec Storage Manager

When newer versions of Adaptec Storage Manager become available, you can
update your IP SAN, if required.
Newer versions of Adaptec Storage Manager can be downloaded from the Adaptec
Web site at www.adaptec.com.
If a newer version of Adaptec Storage Manager includes features that are
incompatible with an earlier version and therefore isn't "downgradeable" after
installation, you will be notified by Adaptec Storage Manager before the installation
begins.
If a previous version of Adaptec Storage Manager is installed on your system,
Note
you must remove it before installing a new version.

Customizing Adaptec Storage Manager

Change display settings, and add or remove features from the Adaptec Storage
Manager main window to make managing your IP SAN easier and more effective.
The tasks described in this section are optional.
Note
You can customize Adaptec Storage Manager by:
• Sorting the systems in the Enterprise View (see page 134).
• Selecting the standard unit of measure shown for disk drives (see page 134).
• Excluding the tool bar or status bar from the main window, or turning off the
Tool Tips (see page 135).
