Interface overview
Unified Manager is a web-based interface that allows you to manage multiple storage arrays in a single view.
Main page
When you log in to Unified Manager, the main page opens to Manage - All. From this page, you can scroll through a list of discovered storage arrays in your network, view their status, and perform operations on a single array or on a group of arrays.
Navigation sidebar
The navigation sidebar provides the following:
-
Manage — Discover storage arrays in your network, launch SANtricity System Manager for an array, import settings from one array to multiple arrays, and manage array groups. Select the check boxes next to the array names to perform operations on them, such as importing settings and creating array groups. The ellipses at the end of each row provides an in-line menu for operations on a single array, such as renaming it.
-
Operations — View the progress of batch operations, such as importing settings from one array to another.
Some operations are not available when a storage array has a non-optimal status.
-
Certificate Management — Manage certificates to authenticate between browsers and clients.
-
Access Management — Establish user authentication for the Unified Manager interface.
-
Support — View technical support options, resources, and contacts.
