On SE server StorMan is defined as add-on pack of M2000 for the Management Unit (MU) to assure independent installation and deinstallation.
StorMan is delivered as part of the SW delivery of SE servers as independent media. However, the version is decoupled from M2000 versions. This is mandatory to assure an independent StorMan Support for new Storage HW/FW versions and features.
The installation of StorMan is mandatory on M2000. However, StorMan may be temporary not installed (e.g. during upgrade installation) or not available (stopped).
The SEM (SE Manager) functions for add-on packs handle installation / de-installation of StorMan via SEM. StorMan does not require specific activation; it is automatically active after successful installation.
SEM additionally provides functions to start, stop and display the status of add-on packs including StorMan. Please refer to "Operation and Administration" manual [3] .
SEM checks the installation and availability of StorMan to activate/deactivate WebUI calls for the Storage Management (URLs in SEM). The name of the add-on pack in M2000 is STORMAN.
