■ CLI Window: HS-series controllers provide a feature called the Command
Line Interpreter (CLI) for configuring and monitoring your storage controllers
using text-based commands. With the CLI, you can connect a maintenance
terminal directly to your controller and manage it using the complete set of
CLI commands. You can also use a host-based, virtual terminal, such as
Command Console's CLI Window, to make the connection.

Storage window. This choice lets you monitor and configure one storage

Navigation Window is a network navigation tool used to manage and monitor
storage subsystems over a TCP/IP network. This choice lets you monitor and
