Adding a Storage Subsystem to the Navigation Tree
The Navigation tree allows you to manage your storage over the network from the
Storage window. If you plan to use pager notification, you must add the storage
subsystem to the Navigation tree.
To add the storage subsystem to the Navigation tree:
1. Verify that you have properly installed and configured the HS-Series Agent
on the storage subsystem host. For more information, refer to the installation
and configuration guide for your operating system.
2. To display the Navigation window, click Start > Programs > Command
Console > StorageWorks Command Console.
3. Click File > Add System.
The Add System window opens.
4. Type the host name or its TCP/IP address and click Apply.
5. Click Close.
6. Click the plus sign (+) to expand the host icon.
7. To access the Storage window for the subsystem, double-click the Storage
window icon.
Managing Storage Subsystems from the Navigation Tree
You can manage a storage subsystem from the Navigation tree by double-clicking
the Storage window or CLI window icon.
To access a subsystem window:
1. Double-click the folder for the storage subsystem.
Up to two icons may be displayed underneath the folder. This depends on
whether you have installed the Storage window and the CLI window.
2. Double-click the Storage window or CLI window icon for the subsystem.
Organizing Your Storage in the Navigation Tree
After you add systems to the Navigation tree, you can organize your storage in
folders:
■ You can place folders under the Command Console root or under another
general folder in the Navigation window.
