Figure 1-5 Disk Array Subsystem - Add Screen - 3
(x) Disk Number Entry field
In an entry field on the screen as shown in the figure above, specify a disk number. A value from 0 to 9999
can be specified for a disk number. Check the disk number of the disk array to be monitored, using the
Volume List (iSMvollist -dl) command in advance. For details, refer to 5.3 “Volume List Command
(iSMvollist)”.
1. Without any disk number being specified, disk arrays can be monitored via FC by specifying [Automatic
detection of Disk Array Subsystems connected by FC].
Specification of a disk number is not recommended because the disk number may change when the OS is
rebooted or an FC fault occurs.
2. For Windows Server 2003, disks in disk arrays may not be accessed when, for example, the access control
setting is changed. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that disk arrays be monitored through TCP/IP
connection when iSM server is installed and used under Windows Server 2003.
