Storage Manager's Load Context Property Book

Storage Manager introduces the concept of a property book. A property book is the mechanism by which you identify, view, and modify the properties of editable objects, such as disks or file systems. A property book, using a book metaphor, contains a list of chapters that represent properties for the object. You can expand each chapter to view or modify the properties.

The purpose of the Load Context Property Book is for you to set the context in which Storage Manager will operate. Generally, a context is the way to manage the properties of an object. In the case of File System Manager, the context includes which host to manage, what name service to modify or how to view and modify the file systems on a server. In the case of Disk Manager, the context includes what diskset (a logical grouping of disks) to modify if you have DiskSuite software installed.

The Load Context Property Book is displayed when you start Storage Manager from the Solstice Launcher. If you start either Disk Manager or File System Manager from the DiskSuite Tool Tools menu, you can also display this window by choosing Load from the File menu, or by clicking on the Load Context icon in either tool bar. Figure A-1 shows the Storage Manager's Load Context Property Book.

Figure A-1 Storage Manager's Load Context Property Book

Here are some brief descriptions of the areas within Storage Manager's Load Context Property Book:

• Current Context - Is a read-only field that displays the host name of the current context. Storage Manager initially has no context set.

• Context Type - Is a read-only field that indicates the name of the tool with which the current context is associated. In Figure A-1, the tool is Storage Manager.

• Property Browser - Is like a table of contents in a book. It lists all the chapters and subchapters (if any) in the book, which represent properties of an object. The Property Browser enables you to navigate quickly to the desired chapter and to expand or collapse its contents as desired.

  Clicking on a chapter in the Property Browser causes the corresponding chapter in the Property Viewer to become visible, if it is not already visible. Double-clicking on a chapter in the Property Browser first makes the chapter visible in the Property Viewer, and then expands or collapses the chapter in the Property Viewer.

• Chapters - Contain a common set of properties for the object that you can view or modify.

• The + and - Buttons - Appear below the Property Browser. These buttons perform an expand all (+) or collapse all (-) function on the chapters in the Property Viewer. This is a quick way of viewing all chapter properties or only the chapter names.

  The buttons that appear next to chapter names in property books also perform an expand all or collapse all function, but only on the selected chapter.

• Property Viewer - Displays the properties you can set when changing your current context. By default, the chapters in this Property Viewer appear expanded, so that you can easily specify the context on which you want to operate. At a minimum, you must probe a server in the Host chapter in order to specify a context. For more information, see "How to Load a Different Context".

• Chapter Properties - Enables you to set the context you want to display and modify.

For more reference information on the chapters that are available from the Load Context Property Book (Host, Name Service, File System, Disk Set), refer to online help.

How to Load an Initial Context

This procedure assumes that the Load Context window is displayed as a result of clicking on the Storage Manager icon in the Solstice Launcher, or by choosing Load from the File menu in either File System Manager or Disk Manager.

1. If you want to view or modify the context of the system where you started the Solstice Launcher and Storage Manager, make needed changes to the Name Service, File System, and Disk Set chapters, if any. Skip to Step 5.

2. If you want to view or modify the context of a system other than the one where you started the Solstice Launcher and Storage Manager, delete the existing name in the Host Name field and type the name of the host whose context you want to view or modify.

3. Click Probe Host.

   A System Discovery window is displayed, indicating that information is being updated from the specified host.

4. If desired, make changes to the Name Service, File System, and Disk Set chapters.

5. Click OK.

   A System Discovery window is displayed, indicating that Storage Manager is validating context parameters as well as discovering devices, directories, and mount points on the specified host.

How to Load a Different Context

This procedure assumes that Storage Manager has an active current context (that is, the File System Manager main window or Disk Manager main window is open).

1. Choose Load from the File menu, or click the Load Context icon in the tool bar.

   The Load Context window is displayed, with the current context's host name displayed in the Host chapter.

2. Delete the existing name in the Host Name field and type the name of the host whose context you want to view or modify.

3. Click Probe Host.

   A System Discovery window is displayed, indicating that information is being updated from the specified host.

4. If desired, make changes to the Name Service, File System, and Disk Set chapters.

5. Click OK.

   A System Discovery window is displayed, indicating that Storage Manager is validating context parameters as well as discovering devices, directories, and mount points on the specified host.

File System Manager Overview

File System Manager is a tool that enables you to create and modify file systems, mount points, and directories using two types of windows, the main window and a Property Book. The main window displays a hierarchical view of directories and file systems, as well as the mount points and shared resources for the current context. The Property Book displays the chapters and their properties for a selected directory or file system that you can view or modify.

Specifically, File System Manager is a tool that enables you to complete the following tasks:

• Create new file systems

• Modify file system options in the /etc/vfstab file

• Manage /etc/vfstab files on a single or group of diskless clients or AutoClient^TM systems.

• Mount or unmount file systems

• Share or unshare file systems

• Include a file system in existing automounter maps

• Convert a directory into a mount point

For step-by-step instructions on how to complete these tasks, refer to Table A-1. Also, these instructions are included in the online help provided with the File System Manager tool.

File System Manager's Main Window

Figure A-2 shows the important areas of the File System Manager's main window.

Figure A-2 File System Manager's Main Window

Here are some brief descriptions of the areas within File System Manager's main window:

• Current Context - Specifies the server or clients on the server where you are managing file systems. You can change the current context by choosing Load from the File menu or by clicking on the Load Context icon in the tool bar.

• Menu Bar - Displays the menus that enable you to perform operations in File System Manager. For detailed descriptions of the menus, see the online help.

• Tool Bar - Displays icons that provide an easier way to select commonly-used operations provided by the main menu, such as mount and unmount, and the ability to launch other tools. When you move the mouse pointer over an active icon, the message area describes what operation the icon will perform. You can choose Toolbar from the View menu to turn the tool bar off or on (by default, it is turned on).

• Main Browser - Displays the directory hierarchy for the current context. You can use the navigation buttons to expand or collapse the view of the directories and mount points. The browser initially displays the top-level of the file system hierarchy.

• The + and - Buttons - Are three-state buttons used to expand and collapse the hierarchical structure you are viewing. The three states are:

  • Collapsed all (the + is displayed)

  • Collapsed managed objects (the +/- is displayed)

  • Expanded all (the - is displayed)

  The +/- state means that the corresponding entry is only partially expanded or collapsed. Clicking on a button in this state will further expand the entry.

• Message Area - Provides information about the main window or icon where the mouse pointer is located.

• Mount Point List - Displays an entry for each mount point defined in the current context. Each entry contains the full path name of the mount point, the type of file system mounted on that mount point, whether the associated resource is currently mounted on the mount point, and the name of that resource.

• Shared Resource List - Displays an entry for each shared resource (directory or mount point) defined in the current context. Each entry contains the full path name of the resource, followed by the options controlling its export.

File System Manager Property Book

There are three ways to open the File System Manager Property Book.

• Select a mount point or directory in the main window and choose Properties from the Object menu.

• Select a mount point or directory in the main window and click the Property Book icon in the tool bar.

• Double-click a mount point or directory in the main window.

Figure A-3 shows the important features of the File System Manager Property Book.

Figure A-3 File System Manager Property Book

• Mount Point - Specifies the name of the mount point that you are managing in the property book. In Figure A-3 the object is the /export mount point.

• Type - Specifies the type of the mount point.

• Property Browser - Functions much the same way as the Storage Manager Load Context Property Browser. It lists all the chapters and subchapters (if any) for the selected directory, mount point, or file system.

  Double-clicking on a chapter expands the chapter in the Property Viewer and displays the subchapters (if any) or the object properties. Double-clicking on a subchapter expands that subchapter in the Property Viewer.

• Chapter - Contains a common set of properties for the object that you can view or modify.

• The + and - Buttons - The buttons that appear below the Property Browser perform an expand all (+) or collapse all (-) function on the chapters in the Property Viewer. This is a quick way of viewing all chapter properties or only the chapter names.

  The buttons that appear next to chapter names in property books also perform an expand all or collapse all function, but only on the selected chapter.

• Property Viewer - Enables you to expand and collapse the contents of chapters. You can expand a chapter down to its object properties, enabling you to view or modify the property for the object.

• Chapter Properties - Specifies the properties that you can view or modify for the object. There can be one or more properties in a chapter.

For more reference information on the chapters that are available from the File System Manager Property Book, refer to the online help.

Disk Manager Overview

Disk Manager is a tool that enables you to view and edit fdisk partitions and slices using two types of windows, the main window and a Property Book. The main window displays the controllers, targets, disks, and slices for the current context. The Property Book displays the chapters and their properties for the selected disk(s), and it is at this level that you can view and edit disk properties.

Specifically, you can complete the following tasks with Disk Manager.

• Assign a volume name to a disk.

• View and modify fdisk partitions on x86 platforms.

• Show and set the active fdisk partition on x86 platforms.

• View and modify slice geometry on SPARC and x86 platforms.

• Copy a disk's characteristics to one or more disks of the same type.

  ---

  Note -

  Before modifying fdisk partitions and slices, you might want to back up critical data.

  ---

  For step-by-step instructions on how to complete these tasks, refer to Table A-2. Also, these instructions are included in the online help provided with the Disk Manager tool.

Disk Manager's Main Window

Figure A-4 shows the important areas of the Disk Manager's main window.

Figure A-4 Disk Manager's Main Window

Here are some brief descriptions of the areas within Disk Manager's main window:

• Current Context - Specifies the server where you are managing disks. You can change the current context by choosing Load from the File menu or by clicking on the Load Context icon in the tool bar.

• Menu Bar - Displays the menus that enable you to perform operations in Disk Manager. For detailed descriptions of the menus, see online help.

• Tool Bar - Displays icons that provide an easier way to select commonly-used operations provided by the main menu, such as cutting, pasting, and launching other tools. When you move the mouse pointer over an active icon, the message area describes what operation the icon will perform. You can choose Toolbar from the View menu to turn the tool bar off or on (by default, it is turned on).

• Main Browser - Displays a hierarchical view of the disk controllers, SCSI targets, and disks for the current system context. You can use the expand/collapse buttons to expand or collapse the view of the SCSI targets and disks under each disk controller. The main browser initially displays the disk controllers for all the available disks in the current context, in their collapsed state.

• The + and - Buttons - Are three-state buttons used to expand and collapse the hierarchical structure you are viewing. The three states are:

  • Collapsed all (the + is displayed)

  • Collapsed managed objects (the +/- is displayed)

  • Expanded all (the - is displayed)

  The +/- state means that the corresponding entry is only partially expanded or collapsed. Clicking on a button in this state will further expand the entry.

• Filter Message Area - Displays whether a filter is on or off, and if a filter is on, how many disks are filtered.

• Message Area - Provides information about the main window or icon where the mouse pointer is located.

• Disk List - Displays the type and size information for the disk(s) currently selected in the main browser.

• Slice List - Displays the slices and their sizes for the disk(s) currently selected in the disk list.

Selecting Multiple Disks

If you have multiple disks that are the same vendor type and have the same physical geometry, you can perform an operation on them simultaneously. This is called batch editing or batching. To select more than one disk in the main browser or disk list, click SELECT (by default, the left mouse button) on the first disk. Then select each subsequent disk by pressing the Shift key and clicking SELECT.

Disk Manager Property Book

There are three ways to open the Disk Manager Property Book.

• Select one or more disks in the main browser and choose Properties from the Object menu.

• Select one or more disks in the main browser and click the Property Book icon in the tool bar.

• Double-click a disk in the main browser.

  Figure A-5 shows the important features of the Disk Manager Property Book.

Figure A-5 Disk Manager Property Book

Here are some brief descriptions of the areas within Disk Manager's main window:

• Disk Name - Specifies the object or group of objects that you can manage in the property book. In Figure A-5, the object is a disk whose name is c0t6d0.

• The ... Button - Indicates that there is at least one other disk of the same type as the disk being edited on the system. Clicking on the ... button displays the Choose Disks to Edit window. This allows you to select more than one disk (of the same type) for simultaneous edit operations.

• Disk Type - Specifies the type of the object. In Figure A-5, the object is a disk that has a disk type of DEFAULT.

• Property Browser - Functions much the same way as the Storage Manager Load Context Property Browser. It lists all the chapters or subchapters (if any) for the selected disk(s).

  Double-clicking on a chapter expands the chapter in the Property Viewer and displays the subchapters (if any) or the object properties.

• Chapters - Contains a common set of properties for the object that you can view or modify.

• The + and - Buttons - The buttons that appear below the Property Browser perform an expand all (+) or collapse all (-) function on the chapters in the Property Viewer. This is a quick way of viewing all chapter properties or only the chapter names.

  The buttons that appear next to chapter names in property books also perform an expand all or collapse all function, but only on the selected chapter.

• Property Viewer - Enables you to expand and collapse the contents of chapters. You can expand a chapter down to its object properties, enabling you to view or modify the property for the object.

• Chapter Properties - Specifies the properties that you can view or modify for the object. There can be one or more properties in a chapter. In Figure A-5, the Label chapter has a Volume Label field that provides a way to assign a name to a disk.

  For more reference information on the chapters that are available from the Disk Manager Property Book, see online help.
