■ The Adaptec Configuration Utility is a BIOS-based utility that enables you to
create and manage controllers, disk drives and other devices, and arrays using the
integrated RAID controller (Adaptec-based). If you use the BIOS Configuration
Utility to create arrays, the Sun StorageTek RAID Manager GUI detects those
arrays and displays them as logical drives in the GUI.
■ The arrconf command-line interface (CLI) can be used with the Sun StorageTek
SAS RAID HBA to perform many of the same tasks provided with the StorageTek
RAID Manager GUI.
Available documentation for the above components may be found on the Sun
documentation web site at:
