Managing the disk array

The Remote Web Console software allows browser-based management of a single disk array. You

can install the optional HP StorageWorks XP Array Manager software and the HP StorageWorks

Command View XP Advanced Edition software on an optional management server to enable additional

management capabilities, including the ability to manage multiple arrays. You can also install other

HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array software on the management server.

You may use an existing host (such as your storage administrator's PC) as the management server

provided that it meets system requirements for the software you plan to deploy. To protect your security,

the disk array management software does not have access to user data stored on the disk array. The

management server connects to the disk array(s) using an Ethernet LAN connection, as shown in

Figure

10.
