Dell MD3220 Adding/Editing a Comment to an Existing Storage Array, Removing Storage Arrays

Adding/Editing a Comment to an Existing Storage Array

A descriptive comment, with an applicable storage array name, is a helpful identification tool. You can add or edit a comment for a storage array in the EMW only.

To add or edit a comment:

1In the EMW, select the Devices tab and select the relevant managed storage array.

2Select Edit→ Comment.

The Edit Comment dialog is displayed.

3Type the 60-character comment.

4Click OK.

This option updates the comment in the table view and saves it in your local storage management station file system. The comment does not appear to administrators who are using other storage management stations.

Removing Storage Arrays

You can remove a storage array from the list of managed arrays if you no longer want to manage it from a specific storage management station. Removing a storage array does not affect the storage array or its data in any way. Removing a storage array simply removes it from the list of storage arrays that appear in the drop-down list in the Array Selector. If a storage array is accidentally removed, it can be added again. See "Adding Storage Arrays" on page 64.

You can remove the storage array only from the EMW. To remove the storage array:

1In the EMW, select the Devices tab and select the relevant managed storage array.

2Select Edit→ Remove→ Storage Array.

A message prompts you for a confirmation for the removal of the selected storage array.

3To remove the storage array, click Yes.
