To access the Disk Array Administrator software using the RS-232 serial port:
1
From the computer connected to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem, start your terminal emulation software.
Be sure that your terminal emulation software is set to use the correct COM port on your computer. See
section 7.14, ”Terminal Emulator and COM Port Problems”, on page 76 for more details on how the
Galaxy 65 Subsystem can auto-detect the baud rate.
2 Press CTRL-R.
This refreshes the screen.
The initial SM Disk Array Administrator screen displays. If any events have occurred, each event displays.
Informational events scroll by automatically. Warning events (yellow text on a black background) and
error events (white text on a red background) display until you press
Enter
or
Esc
. Once all the events
display, the initial screen displays. The initial screen alternates between displaying the date, time, and
temperature and the model number of your Galaxy 65 Subsystem.
You can bypass all events by pressing Tab. However, events provide valuable information about the
status of your Galaxy 65 Subsystem and you should review them. All events are also stored in the event
log (see D.2, ”Displaying the Event Log”, on page 154).
