3.6 Environment configuration using wizard

Even without prior experience of ETERNUS Disk storage systems configuration and setup, the volume created in ETERNUS Disk storage system can be assigned to the server with a wizard.
In addition, when not using a wizard, it is necessary to perform the Remote Advanced Copy settings to each ETERNUS Disk storage system. However, if using a wizard, two ETERNUS Disk storage systems can be simultaneously set up.

Express provides the following wizards.

Storage configuration wizard: This wizard can register new server and assign volumes created in ETERNUS Disk storage system to new server. In addition, volumes to be assigned can be created in this wizard.

Volume allocation wizard: This wizard can assign volumes created in ETERNUS Disk storage system to the registered server.

Advanced Copy configuration wizard: This wizard can configure the copy table size and Snap Data Pool policy required for Advanced Copy operation.

Remote Advanced Copy configuration wizard: This wizard can configure the copy table size and copy route connection required for Remote Advanced Copy (REC) operation.
