About This Guide
This guide explains how to use the SteelVine Manager software to configure and monitor

utilities to create and customize basic configurations; these can also be created by
manipulating the rotary switch and push-button on the back of the appliance. The SteelVine
Manager also provides monitoring utilities to supplement information gathered by observing
the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the front of the SteelVine Storage Reference Design.
Note: The SteelVine Manager User’s Guide presents screens that were captured using Microsoft

OS X images are presented in addition to the MS Windows images. Linux images are not presented.
