Working with physical drives and arrays during logical drive migration

If you are unfamiliar with the tree icons, you might want to review the following information:


  1. Click on an item from the Main Tree (that is, the left panel).
  2. Select an action from the Actions menu.

You can also drag and drop icons from the Main Tree to the Configuration Tree. The Actions menu enables only the appropriate actions for a selected item. These same actions are also available when you right-click an object in the Main Tree or Configuration Tree.
