MegaRAID Storage Manager Window
These topics describe the panels in the main MegaRAID Storage Manager window:
Physical/Logical View Panel
The left panel of the main MegaRAID Storage Manager window displays either the Physical view or the Logical view of the server and the devices in it, depending on which tab is selected.
- The Physical view shows the hierarchy of physical devices in the server. At the top of the hierarchy is the server itself. Controllers are installed in the server. The controller label identifies the MegaRAID controller so that you can easily differentiate between multiple controllers. Each controller has one or more ports. Drives and other physical devices are attached to the ports.
- The Logical view shows the hierarchy of servers, controllers, virtual drives, and drive groups on the server. (Drives appear in the Logical view so that you can see which drives are used by each virtual drive.)
Small icons represent the servers, controllers, and other devices. Here are the icons for the most often represented devices:
A red circle to the right of an icon indicates that the device has failed. For example, this icon indicates that a drive has failed:
. A yellow circle to the right of an icon indicates that a device is running in a partially degraded state.
