All Cache, All Hosts, All Clusters

As each device detaches, the following message appears.

Use Attach to restore the operating system access to the IO Accelerator.

Detaching mixed attached/detached devices

If you select a set of IO Accelerators to detach where some are attached and some are detached, the Confirm Detach dialog box displays a list of the drives and their statuses.

When you click Detach, the IO Accelerator Management Tool disconnects only the attached devices (those marked Ready).

All Cache

This table displays the name of the cache, its status (Enabled or Disabled), the ioMemory in use, the Hostname, the Cluster Name, and the Backing Store Device Name. The backing store device is the name of the device being cached. All of these links take you to the Device page except the Cluster Name, which takes you to a table showing all the hosts that are part of the cluster.

Remove

Removes the caching relationship of a caching device to a backing store and restores the device and backing store to their previous, unbound state.

Enable

Re-enables caching of a bound backing store and creates a cache block device.

Disable

Halts caching and prepares a cache and backing store for system power down or for maintenance. To re-enable the caching, click Enable.

All Hosts

Select All Hosts from the sidebar to display all host-relevant information, such as Hostname, HostIP (the host's IP address), Hosts Online (whether the selected host is online or offline), and the Host OS (Linux or Windows). The serial number or the alias of the drive displays under the heading Drives. The Cluster Name is displayed last.

The Format, Update Firmware, and Attach buttons apply to all devices attached to the selected hosts.

All Clusters

This screen displays the Cluster Name, the Cluster IP Address, and the Master Host. The Columns link lets you add or remove the Cluster IP Address and the Master Host name.
