EZPilot Manager, resetting HBAs and sorting items in the discovery-tree view. Many of the Menu bar
commands are also available from the Toolbar.
The File menu enables you to exit EZPilot Manager.
The View menu enables you to turn off and on the Toolbar, Status Bar, and Item Help Tips. You
can also choose to display discovered elements starting from the Storage Devices, Hosts,
Switches or Local HBAs Only options (see “The Toolbar” on page 14). You can also enable or
disable Advanced Mode.
The Adapter menu enables you to reset a selected adapter (see “Resetting an HBA” on
page 28), edit its name (see “Editing an HBA’s Name” on page 29) or use its default name (see
“Reverting to an HBA’s Default Name” on page 29).
The Discovery menu enables you to modify discovery properties (see “Modifying Discovery
Properties” on page 17) and to refresh the discovery.

the Reset Adapter item on the Adapter menu is unavailable. The Reset Adapter
Toolbar button is unavailable as well.
Note:
You must be in Advanced Mode to see the Maintenance tab, update an HBA’s
firmware/BIOS and to manage a switch.
