SmartArray controllers and option controllers. The utility supports reporting and configuration of
the SmartArray. Configuration includes the ability to create arrays; create, expand, and delete
logical drives and many other advanced operations. The information provided in the guide is
introductory and example focused . For more information, see Configuring Arrays on HP Smart

since the application operates on internal commands supplied in the command-string.
