Storage Configuration Manager for the BladeCenter S system

The IBM Storage Configuration Manager is a systems management application used for managing and configuring SAS and storage devices.

Storage Configuration Manager uses Web-based standards. You can install it to run as a standalone application or as an application launched from IBM Director 5.20.2 or later to manage IBM Director storage managed objects.

Note:

The Storage Configuration Manager IBM Director extension launches Storage Configuration Manager tasks from the IBM Director Console. The Storage Configuration Manager Director Extension must be installed on both of the following systems:

The system where the IBM Director Server is installed

Storage Configuration Manager features a web based console that can communicate to remote SAS connectivity modules or SAS RAID controller modules in the BladeCenter S chassis.
