3.4 Managing Partitions
The SAM software lets you manage partitions in a variety of ways. You can:
• View partition status information (see page 25)
• Change a partition name (see page 25)
• Change a partition LUN (see page 26)
• Control partition access (see page 27)
• Change a partition’s read-ahead cache size (see page 30)
• Delete a partition (see page 31)
3.4.1 Viewing Partition Status Information
Partition status information is available from many pages in SAM. The top panel on all Disk Array Config
and LUN Management pages displays an icon for each array with information about the array below it.
In this top panel, critical arrays display a blinking, red exclamation mark through the array. If a utility is
running on the array, the percent complete displays. If any array is critical for any reason other than
initializing or reconstructing, you should review the status information and take the appropriate action,
such as replacing a disk drive. For more information about the array icons, refer to the Understanding the
Array Icons section of the X24 Subsystem Getting Started Guide.
More detailed partition information is available from two pages (for information about the fields on each
page, click Page Help):
• Monitor Galaxy 65 Subsystem > Status > Storage Array Status—includes partition information
for the selected array.
•
Manage Galaxy 65 Subsystem > LUN Management
—includes more detailed partition information
and a graphical depiction of the partitions for the selected array.

You cannot change a partition name when a utility is running.
To change a partition name:
