Appendix B Using a Standalone JBOD Array (SANnet II 200 FC Array Only) B-3
SANscape software supports FC JBOD arrays. However, since FC JBOD arrays do
not have a RAID controller to manage the disks, this software support is necessarily
limited. Monitoring functionality that does not require a RAID controller works the
same way it does for RAID arrays. See “Using SANnet II Family Software
Monitoring and Management Tools with JBOD Arrays” on page B-3 for more
specific information.
Similarly, SANscape Alert support for standalone JBOD arrays is limited to
functionality that can work without a RAID controller.
The SANscape CLI supports SANnet II 200 FC JBOD arrays. However, because
SANnet II 200 FC JBOD arrays do not have a RAID controller to manage the disks,
this support is limited.
Refer to the “Monitoring JBODs” appendix in the SANscape CLI Users Guide for
more information about using these commands.
B.5 Using SANnet II Family Software Monitoring
and Management Tools with JBOD Arrays

documentation CD provides the related user guides.
SANscape. Provides centralized storage configuration, maintenance, and monitoring

SANscape Alert. Provides event monitoring and notification. Refer to the SANscape
Alert Users Guide for more information.
SANscape Command-Line Interface (CLI). A command-line interface utility that
provides script-based management. Refer to the SANscape CLI Users Guide for
more information.
For details on how to install SANscape, SANscape Alert, or SANscape CLI software,
refer to the SANscape Software Installation Guide.
B.5.1 SANscape
SANscape supports all SANnet II arrays. It also supports, to a limited degree,
standalone SANnet II 200 FC JBOD arrays. Since standalone JBOD arrays do not have
a RAID controller to manage the disks, this software support for JBODs is limited to
the following functions:
viewing component and alarm characteristics
upgrading firmware on hard drives
upgrading firmware on SAF-TE devices
Refer to the “Monitoring JBODs” appendix in the SANscape Users Guide for
information about using these functions with JBOD arrays.
