Change Wizard on page 380.
Unmanaged Hardware
If the System Manager finds unmanaged hardware, such as disks or server host bus
adaptors (HBAs), it prompts you to manage them. For more information on managing
unassigned disks, refer to Adding Unassigned Disks to a Folder on page 119. For more
information on HBAs, refer to Managing HBAs on page 47.
