Installing Supplemental Software

The following supplemental software components are available for your Sun workstation running Windows Vista Ultimate, Windows Server 2008, or Windows XP.

• MegaRAID Storage Manager: Allows you to configure, administer and monitor RAID on your Sun workstation using the optional LSI 3041E HBA. Refer to Managing RAID Using the MegaRAID Storage Manager for more information.
