26 Operating Your Storage Enclosure
Managing Your Storage Enclosure
Disk storage within the enclosure can be configured using either the PERC 6/E
Ctrl-R BIOS firmware or
Dell OpenManage™ Storage Management Service, a
plug-in to Dell OpenManage Server Administrator
.
NOTE: Online configuration, enclosure status, and active event notification is
supported with Server Administrator version 5.4 or later only.
Storage Management Service provides a comprehensive server/storage
management solution with an integrated graphical view and command line
interface. It enables online configuration and management for both server-
internal storage and externally attached storage.
Storage Management Service obtains information about physical storage
devices, disk enclosures, virtual disks/RAID arrays, and logical devices and
displays the information in both physical and logical views. These views are
accessed via a storage controller icon or a textual link. From the Storage
Management Service console, you can create and manage RAID storage
configurations, display storage information, customize event reporting, and
view logged events. Logged events can also be used to create alerts containing
detailed enclosure (logical and physical) device status.
For more information, see the Server Administrator documentation for more
details.
Downloading Firmware
You can download firmware updates for your storage enclosure using a Dell
Update Package available at
support.dell.com
.
NOTE: Firmware download may take several minutes per enclosure. During this
time, the host may lose communication with the enclosure.
If loss of communication problems occur, refer to "Troubleshooting a Loss of
Communication Condition" on page 43.
