Adding a remote system
Note: This action is not supported when using the following:
- Adaptec Storage Manager in bootable-CD mode
Use this action to connect to a system and retrieve the system information.
Tip: Before adding
a remote system, verify that the Adaptec Storage Manager is running on the remote
system. If the Adaptec Storage Manager is not running on the remote system, you will receive
an error.
- From the Remote menu, select Remote
Add
or click
(Add) on the toolbar. The "Add remote
system" window opens.
- Type the remote host name or TCP/IP address.
- Type the Remote system startup port number. The default port number is
34571.
- If security is enabled on the remote system, type your user name and password.
Note: For a remote Windows or Linux system, you must enter a valid network user name and password for the operating system. The password is case sensitive.
If security is disabled, go to step 6. (Security is enabled by default.)
- If you want to save the user name and password, select the Save user
name/Password box. Once you successfully connect to the remote system,
the Adaptec Storage Manager stores this information in a file along with the host
name so you do not have to type your user name and password every time you
run the Adaptec Storage Manager.
- Click Connect.
