This function allows you to efficiently create a device configuration containing similar device units. First create an original device unit, use Copy Device to copy as many device units as desired, and then edit the devices.
Note
If a device registered on the resource view is selected and started by selecting [To Send]-[Storage Volume Configuration Navigator] from the pop-up menu, only the device selected at start-up is operable.
Copy Device can be operated as shown below.
Selecting an original device unit of which you want to make a copy, select "Copy Device" from the menu bar and pop-up menu. The following Copy Device window then appears.
Enter the name you want to assign to a copied device unit in the [Name] text box. This is a temporary name used for identifying the device on the design window. The device matching operation renames the temporary names as device names specified in the operation management server.
Write any necessary information in the [Memo] text box. This memo information is only valid on the design window. You cannot browse this information on the resource view after configuring the devices.
Click <OK> button.
With these operations, the copied device unit is now created on the design window. Now you can edit the configuration.
