Chapter 8. Administration - Subsystem
Management
Chapter 6, “Administration - Enterprise Management” on page 161 describes how to start
managing a storage subsystem from the IBM System Storage DS Storage Manager 10
(Enterprise Management) window.
When you choose to manage a specific storage subsystem, the IBM System Storage DS
(Subsystem Management) window opens, along with the Initial Setup Task on background
and a small window prompting for the password (Figure 8-1 on page 194).
After entering the correct password, all six tabs of Subsystem Manager are accessible. The
last used tab from previous session is selected automatically and the size of window is also
restored from previous session. We recommend using the Setup Tab Chapter 12,
“Administration - Setup tab” on page 305 for the Initial Setup Tasks for the first configuration
steps on a new subsystem.

Note: Starting with DS Storage Manger version 10.70, all managed subsystems must have
password set. How to set the password and new strong password rules are described in
chapter “Set Password” on page 210
