Elements of the Configure Device Window
Configure Device: Resource Tree
The Device Resource Tree displays the hierarchical structure of storage devices as follows:
You can drill down to the device or SAN path level by clicking the plus to the left of a resource icon. Initially, the Enterprise is selected, as indicated by the filled check box.
Green lines protruding from a device cluster or tape library icon indicates a SAN device cluster or tape library. The hierarchical structure presents a SAN device path and non-SAN device (the lowest levels in the hierarchy) in a similar format for consistency. The SAN path tells which node to use to access the desired device. The format of a SAN device path or non-SAN device is device-name@node-name.
If you click an icon or name of a resource other than the Enterprise, its edit dialog appears in a pane on the right side of the Configure Devices window.
Configure Device: Context Menus
You can access the Configure Device Context menus by right-clicking an icon or name. Each icon in the Device Resource Tree has its own context menu with relevant entries.
