Storage Manager provides a GUI for configuring, monitoring, and managing
one or more FAStT Storage Servers. Included with the FAStT Storage
Manager is a license for 16 Storage Partitions allowing up to 16
different hosts or host clusters to attach to the FAStT900. Each Storage
Partition provides protected data access for only the assigned host
servers to the assigned FAStT logical volumes (or LUNs). An optional
feature (#7664) provides a license activation key to increase the number
of Storage Partitions up to 64. Each Storage Partition supports up to 32
logical volumes. With the 64 Storage Partition option, the FAStT900
supports up to 2048 logical volumes. The FAStT Storage Manager provides
dynamic array management capabilities to expand logical volumes, add
additional disk drives to array groups, and change the RAID segment size
or RAID level of an array group without interrupting data availability on
the FAStT.
