Chapter 9: Managing Your Storage Space ● 57

About ICP Storage Manager

Note: Currently, ICP Storage Manager is not supported on Solaris or FreeBSD. To create and

manage arrays, use the

ICP RAID Configuration utility. See page 58 for more information.

ICP Storage Manager is a full-featured software application that helps you build a storage space

for your online data, using ICP RAID controllers and disk drives.

With ICP Storage Manager, you can group disk drives into logical drives and build in

redundancy to protect your data and improve system performance.

From a single workstation, you can use ICP Storage Manager to monitor and manage all the

controllers and disk drives in your storage space, including DAS and NAS.

When ICP Storage Manager is installed on a computer, the ICP Storage Manager agent is also

installed automatically. The agent is like a service that keeps your storage space running. It’s

designed to run in the background, without user intervention, and its job is to monitor and

manage system health, event notifications, task schedules, and other on-going processes on

that system. It sends notices when tasks are completed successfully, and sounds an alarm when

errors or failures occur on that system.

The agent uses less memory than the full application. If your storage space includes systems

that won’t be connected to monitors (and therefore won’t require the user interface), you can

choose to run the agent only on those systems instead of the full application. For more

information, refer to the ICP Storage Manager online Help, or to the ICP Storage Manager

User’s Guide on the ICP Storage Manager Installation CD.

Installing ICP Storage Manager

ICP Storage Manager is included on the ICP Storage Manager Installation CD. For installation

instructions, refer to the ICP Storage Manager User’s Guide, also included on the ICP Storage

Manager Installation CD.

About the Adaptec RAID Controller Configuration Utility

The Adaptec RAID Controller Configuration (ARCCONF) is a command line utility that you

can use to perform some basic array and configuration management functions.

With ARCCONF, you can:

● Create and delete logical drives

● Modify and copy configuration settings

● Recover from disk drive failures and troubleshoot

ARCCONF and the Command Line Interface (CLI) User’s Reference, which describes how to use

ARCCONF, are included on the ICP Storage Manager Installation CD.

Note:

ICP recommends that only advanced users familiar with command line interfaces use

ARCCONF. Currently, ARCCONF is not supported on Solaris or FreeBSD. To create and manage

arrays, use the

ICP RAID Configuration utility. See page 58 for more information.
