NOTE: You must be a superuser/administrator to run the SANscape
Console. NOTE: You cannot use the SANscape Console and the SANscape CLI
at the same time to configure an array. NOTE: Because the SANscape Console does not receive event alerts
unless it is running, after configuring the array, always leave SANscape
running in its minimized mode on the SANscape Console workstation. Or,
instead, you can use SANscape Alert, a companion utility of SANscape that
runs as a background service that sends messages from the hosts and array
to specified email addresses. For details, refer to the SANscape Alert
Users Guide. Note: For SANscape to view and manage an array, each HBA card
must be connected to the primary controller. Solaris/Linux/HP-UX/IBM AIX Host At the command prompt, type:
# ssconsole Microsoft Windows Host For Windows 2000, choose Start > Programs > Dot Hill SANscape >
SANscape Console. For Windows 2003, choose Start > All Programs > Dot Hill SANscape
> SANscape Console. Main Window Before and After First Use When SANscape initializes for the first time, the main window is blank.
The Add Server window is then displayed, enabling you to add servers
to the Managed Servers list of the SANscape Console you are using.
For details on adding servers, see Adding
a Server. Whenever you start SANscape after the first time and after you have selected
Managed Servers, the main window does display server icons for
the servers on the Managed Servers list. Click OK or Cancel
to continue. After a new array is configured and the workstation is booted up, the
program might not see the storage unit until the logical drives are labeled. On UNIX systems, if the SANscape Console locks up during use, you can
stop SANscape, and then close and reopen the window without affecting
SANscape.
