View Server

View Server displays the characteristics of the server that is selected in the main window.

To access View Server, double-click the server icon Server Icon in the main window or select the server icon and choose View > View Server.

Part of the TCP/IP network, the socket port makes a connection between the server and the client.

Connection List - Displays host adapters and array controllers that are installed in or connected to the specified server.

NOTE: Dual-port HBAs are displayed as separate entries because they have separate channels to which devices can be connected.

Rescan - Sends a command to the selected server to rescan existing inventory and refresh the console. Normally, each managed server performs a periodic scan of its inventory and updates the console if there is a change. If you want to perform a diagnostic of all assigned devices, click Rescan; clicking this button essentially circumvents the periodic and automatic status updates.

Probe - Sends a command to the selected server to probe for new inventory (for example, RAID controllers, JBODs, and expansion units). Whenever a new device has been added, or a device name has changed and you want it to be displayed in the main window tree view immediately, click Probe.
