Working with the 3DM Screens The Management menu gives you access to tasks used for managing controller-level settings (background task rate, unit polices such as enabling of unit write cache, and controller settings that affect all units managed by the controller), tasks that can be scheduled (rebuild, verify, and self-test), and maintenance of individual units. Unit configuration can also be done through the Management > Maintenance page. The Monitor menu gives you access to the Alarms page, the BBU page, and the Enclosure Summary page. The Alarms page shows a list of alarms, including the specific alarm message, and the exact date and time it occurred. The BBU page shows the status of a Battery Backup Unit (BBU), if one is installed, and allows you to test the battery. The Enclosure Summary page provides lists the enclosures connected to the controller and lets you drill down for more detailed status information about each. The 3DM 2 Settings page lets you set preferences, including email notification for alarms, passwords, page refresh frequency, whether remote access is permitted, and the communication port which 3DM will use for listening. Help lets you access information about using 3DM. The Help is contextsensitive, so you first see information about the page you now have in view. A Table of Contents and Index are available to help you find other information. www.3ware.com 77
