Menu Bar/Go To Menu
The Go To menu has sub-menus like Controller, Drive Group, Physical Drive, Virtual Drive,
BBU, etc.
Each of above sub-menu may have some or all items greyed out, unless controller, physical,
virtual drive, drive group, BBU or other storage object is selected. For example, the Enable
Alarm and Silence Alarm options are available only when a controller is selected. The options
also vary depending on the current state of the selected object. For example, if an offline
physical drive is selected, the Make Drive Online option is displayed in the menu.
There is a general tip here that, most functions in the Go To menu are equal to right-clicking
the storage object selected in Physical or Logical view tab. For example, selecting Go To |
Controller | Create Virtual Drive, is equal to selecting the controller in Physical (or Logical)
tab, right-clicking it and choosing Create Virtual Drive.
