Tips for using the PowerVault Manager
The following list contains tips for using PowerVault Manager.
- Do not use the Back or Forward buttons in the browser. The PowerVault Manager has a single page for which content changes as you perform tasks, and automatically updates to show current data.
- If you are signed in to the PowerVault Manager and the controller you are accessing goes offline, the system informs you that the system is unavailable or that communication has been lost. After the controller comes back online, close and reopen the browser and start a new PowerVault Manager session.
- As you set options in panels, the PowerVault Manager informs you whether a value is invalid or a required option is not set.
- Confirmation buttons become active only after you set all required options.
- A red asterisk (*) identifies a required setting.
