6444.0. "RAIDarray 210/230 & ServerWorks?" by COPCLU::GREG (Greg Parker @DMO, 857-2454) Wed Mar 05 1997 02:32


	The platform is AlphaServer 4100 running Windows NT.

	I have a question on the "RAID monitoring/management" software 
	for the RAIDarray 210/230's. Is this software in any way integrated
	with ServerWorks Manager? In other words can the RAID software
	provide alarms into ServerWorks and can You launch the RAID
	utility from ServerWorks.

	Best regards
	Greg

    I will check in this, and report back, but you may want to ask the
    question in the PCBUOA::SERVER_WORKS notesfile to get a quicker
    response.

    I believe the answer to be no.
    
    What INTEL platforms has that IS integrated with ServerWORKS is the
    Mylex Global Array Manager (GAM) software.  This allows to peruse
    error information, logical and physical drive information on the fly, 
    and with the advent of the Rev E mylex, the MORE (Mylex Online Raid
    Expansion) is now in test soon to release.  This feature is integrated
    into serverworks such that when you click on a PRioris Server running
    the agent software, if the GAM Agent is also detected, a launch button
    for the application automatically appears at the toolbar.
    
    Hope this helps.......
    
    There is a way to integrate an external application into ServerWORKS
    paper, I just put it on our web site  akin40.ako.dec.com Click on
    the Digital ServerWORKS Hotlink, and the next screen has the link to a 
    doc file.  Please note this is a draft document, the final will be
    placed there when it is completed.  But there are some basics.
