Displaying the menu for disks

The context menu for a disk is available when you highlight a path that is connected to the disk. The menu requires the DMP DSMs tab to be active.

To display the disk context menu

  1. Open the DMP DSMs folder in the tree view.
  2. Select the disk that you are interested in.

    Note that opening the Disks folder and clicking a disk that is under DMP DSMs control is an alternative way to select a disk.

  3. Select the DMP DSMs tab in the right pane. This tab displays the paths to the selected disk.

    Each path is displayed with its properties. Some of the attributes that are displayed are Port, Channel, Target ID, LUN, and Load Balance Policy.

    The name of the path is derived from a combination of properties of the path. For example, if the path has properties of port number = 2, Channel = 1, and Target ID = 1, then the name of the path is 2-1-1.

  4. Right-click on a path and the context menu appears.
