To open the ACU from the storage server desktop:
NOTE:
If this is the rst time that the ACU is being run, you will be prompted to select the Execution Mode for
ACU. Selecting Local Application Mode allows you to run the ACU from a Remote Desktop, remote
console, or st
orage server web access mode. Remote service mode allows you to access the ACU
from a remote
br owser.
1. Select Start > Programs > HP Management Tools > Array Cong u ration Utility.
2. If the Execution Mod e for ACU is set to Remote M o de, log on to the H P System Management
Homepage. The default user name is administrator and the default password is hpinvent.

Some ACU guidelines to consider:
Do not modify the rst two logical drives of the storage server; they are congured for the storage
server operating system.
Spanning more than 14 disks with a RAID 5 volume is not recommended.
Designate spares for RAID sets to provide greater protection against failures.
R AID sets cannot span controllers.
A single array can contain multiple logical drives of varying RAID settings.
Extending an d expanding arrays and logical drives is supported.
