5.1 Overview

To build your storage space, complete these steps:

  1. Choose at least one management system (see Choosing a Management System).
  2. Start and log in to maxView Storage Manager on the management system (see Starting maxView Storage Manager and Logging In ).
  3. Log in to all other systems from the management system (see Logging into Remote Systems from the Local System).
  4. Create arrays and logical drives for all systems in your storage space (see Creating Arrays and Logical Drives).

As your storage requirements change, you can add systems, controllers, and disk drives, then modify the arrays and logical drives in your storage space by following the instructions in Modifying Your Storage Space.
