Advanced Configuration
There are a variety of ways you can configure your Storage Central SC101. For information about
using the Wizard Setup Configuration Options, see “Using the Wizard Setup Mode” on page 5-2.
This chapter describes how to use Advanced Configuration to set up your SC101.
You can use Advanced Configuration to complete the following tasks:
Status: Use the Check Central Storage Status button to check the status of the SC101.
Create/Manage drives: Create new drives or manage existing drives that you already created.
See “Creating or Managing Drives” on page 6-4.
Change hard disk name: Change the name of the hard disk.
View/attach available drive: View available drives, and attach a drive if one is available. See
“View/Attach Available Drive” on page 6-5.
Change admin password: Change the password for the admin login. The admin login and
password are required to access sensitive areas of the SC101 Configuration Utility.
Firmware Upgrade: Upgrade the firmware for the Storage Central SC101. See “Firmware
Upgrade” on page 6-5.
Manage Broken Mirror: If you created a mirrored drive, and one of the hard disks installed
in the SC101 fails or is removed, then a broken mirror message is displayed. For more
information, see the help in the SC101 Configuration Utility.
Manage Broken Drive: If there is a problem while a drive is being created, such as losing the
network connection, then the drive can be broken. If this happens, use this feature to delete the
broken drive.
If a PC is creating a shared drive, then it will appear to be broken to other PCs until the
creation process is complete.
