and Ethernet connections.
• Issue commands to manage the Endurance server and its components, including enabling
and disabling server components.
• Access statistics about the Endurance servers, including Ethernet counters.

any pending mirror copies and, if a mirror copy is in progress, the percentage of
completion.
• Access the Endurance Configuration Utility and Windows administration tools.
• Administer your Endurance servers from a remote workstation, using either a local area
network connection or Microsoft's Remote Access Server (RAS).
Using Endurance Manager options, you can control how information is displayed and updated,
including configuring which IOP is polled for status and state information.
Endurance Manager includes an Administration window, a graphical representation of the
