134 Storage Management Service
NOTE: For complete documentation on Storage Management, see the Storage
Management online help or the Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Administrator
Storage Management User's Guide.
NOTE: The Storage Management Service is available on systems running
Microsoft Windows,
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
operating systems.
When using the Storage Management, you can click Help on the global
navigation bar for more detailed information about the specific window you
are viewing. Help is available for all windows accessible to the user based on
user privilege level and the specific hardware and software groups that Server
Administrator discovers on the managed system.
Software Prerequisites
See the Storage Management readme (readme_sm.txt) and the Server
Administrator readme (readme_sa.txt) for the complete software and
hardware requirements. These files are available on the Dell Systems
Management Tools and Documentation DVD.
Hardware Prerequisites
Installing Storage Management on a system that does not have a supported
controller, or a controller that is not attached to storage is an unsupported
configuration. For a list of the supported controllers and for other
information about the Storage Management Service hardware requirements,
see the Server Administrator (readme_sa.txt), and Storage Management
readme (readme_sm.txt) files on the Dell Systems Management Tools and
Documentation DVD.
Storage Management Service
Installing the Storage Management replaces any previous installation of the
Array Manager managed system (server software) and console (client
software) on the system. If only the Array Manager console is installed on the
system, then installing the Storage Management does not replace the Array
Manager console.
