3 Startup and Navigation Starting FCArray Assistant This chapter primarily describes the menus and toolbars used in the FCArray Assistant Client software, running on a client station under Windows NT 4.0, to manage and monitor the Disk Arrays. To use and operate the FCArray Assistant Client software successfully, a complete installation of the FCArray Assistant Server software is required on at least one HP NetServer in your TCP/IP network. If not, the FCArray Assistant Client will not successfully manage any devices. FCArray Assistant Server Software The FCArray Assistant Server runs automatically on the server and performs the following functions: • Monitors the controller(s) and disks attached to the server. • Executes the management instructions sent to the controller(s) and associated disk subsystems attached to the server by the FCArray Assistant Clients. • Sends information to FCArray Assistant Clients. The automatic installation procedure for Windows NT's FCArray Assistant Server loads the FCArray Assistant Server software as a "service." This service will load automatically at system startup. No special procedure is required to run the FCArray Assistant Server. FCArray Assistant Client Software Once you have installed the FCArray Assistant Client on your workstation (see the previous chapter), you are ready to start up the FCArray Assistant Client. NOTE Install and start the FCArray Assistant Server software on your managed server before attempting to run the FCArray Assistant Client software. 1.
