Chapter 3: Building Your Storage Space ● 31 Starting Adaptec Storage Manager on Remote Systems The next step is to start Adaptec Storage Manager on all the remote systems in your storage space. (For more information about 'remote' systems, see page 26.) You can run the full application on each system. Alternatively, if your storage space includes systems that aren't connected to monitors (and therefore won't require the user interface described in this User's Guide), you can run the Agent only. You may want to do this if system resources are limited, or if you want more system resources available for other tasks. (For more information, see About the Adaptec Storage Manager Agent on page 14.) To start: ● The full application, see Starting and Logging In on the Local System on page 27. ● The Agent only, see page 31.
