Step 7: Registering Your iSCSI Storage Appliance If you didn't register your iSCSI Storage Appliance at the end of "Step 2: Configuring the iSCSI Storage Appliance" on page 36, you will be prompted to register again when: • You next log in to the Management Service. Adaptec Storage Manager finds any unregistered iSCSI Storage Appliances associated with that Management Service and prompts you to register each one individually. • You next view or change the configuration settings on that iSCSI Storage Appliance in the wizard. You must register your iSCSI Storage Appliance to receive notification of new software releases and updates, and to receive technical support. Beginning to Use Your IP SAN Once setup is complete, use Adaptec Storage Manager to manage and monitor your IP SAN. Logging In To Adaptec Storage Manager Next Time Once your IP SAN is set up, each time you start Adaptec Storage Manager, any Management Services on the iSCSI Storage branch will be grayed out. To begin a new session on Adaptec Storage Manager, click on the grayed out Management Service. Unless you enable the 'Save User' feature when you log in to the Management Service (see page 35), you will be prompted to enter a user name and password. Once you have logged in and the connection to the Management Service is reestablished, all iSCSI Storage Appliances and iSCSI Storage Hosts associated with that Management Service appear in the Enterprise View and you can begin to monitor and manage your IP SAN.
