Dell Version 7.3 manual Managing System/Server Module Tree Objects, Modular Enclosure

NOTE: You must have Administrator or Power User privileges to view many of the system tree objects, system components, action tabs, and data area features that are configurable. Additionally, only users logged in with Administrator privileges can access critical system features such as the shutdown functionality included under the Shutdown tab.

Managing System/Server Module Tree Objects

The Server Administrator system/server module tree displays all visible system objects based on the software and hardware groups that Server Administrator discovers on the managed system and on the user's access privileges. The system components are categorized by component type. When you expand the main object — Modular Enclosure — System/Server Module — the major categories of system components that may appear are, Main System Chassis/Main System, Software, and Storage.

If Storage Management Service is installed, depending on the controller and storage attached to the system, the Storage tree object expands to display various objects.

For detailed information on the Storage Management Service component, see the Dell OpenManage Server

Administrator Storage Management User's Guide at dell.com/support/manuals.

Modular Enclosure

NOTE: For the purposes of Server Administrator, modular enclosure refers to a system that may contain one or more modular systems that appear as a separate Server Module in the system tree. Like a stand-alone Server Module, a modular enclosure contains all of the essential components of a system. The only difference is that there are slots for at least two Server Modules within a larger container, and each of them is as complete a system as a Server Module.
