Stop and start the client
Stop the Client
Stopping the Client services will detach the virtual devices and direct devices in
use by the Client, allowing the ASC administrator to manage or modify the SAN
Resources safely.
Note: Before stopping the Client, make sure all read/write operations are
complete.
Start the Client
Starting the Client services re-establishes the connection to all of the ASC
Servers and attaches to the SAN Resources assigned to this Client.
Note: If you added or deleted SAN Resources for this Client in the Console, use
the
Rescan Devices button to have the changes take effect. For other
configuration changes, you will need to restart the Client.
Restart the Client
To stop/start the Client, click the Restart Client button . This stops the
Client and then restarts it for you.
Note: If the Windows NT/2000 Client loses its connection to the ASC Server due
to a network issue, or the ASC Server is shut down and you click the Stop Client
or Restart Client buttons, the Windows NT/2000 Client will retry its connection
to the ASC Server for five minutes before timing out. During this time the
Client Monitor will be inaccessible.
Connect/Disconnect a server
When you disconnect a Server, it will still appear in the tree but it will not be
monitored and you will not see statistics for it.
Conversely, when you connect to a Server, it will be monitored and you will see
statistics for it.
To connect/disconnect, right-click on the Server and select the appropriate
option.
