Mylex GAM server with Feodra?

[Michael Janneck]

Hi everyone,

I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Primergy E200 Workgroup-Server with a Mylex 
DAC 1164 RAID controller. Recently I installed Fedora and everything 
works fine, but Mylex' Global Array Manager software.

What I would like is to manage the RAID Controller completely from 
Linux, but all I found was a GAM server for Linux. So I installed the 
GAM client on a Windows box. I used software version 4.06 for both, 
client and server, but I didn't get the client to connect to the 
server.

Unfortunately, the documentation of this software is lousy and I have 
little experience with it. So I am hoping that someone on this list can 
give me some advice. What I would like to know at first is, whether the 
GAM server works correctly or not. Is there any way to check this out? 
Using ps, I can see that it is running, but is it reporting anything 
useful? And then, I am interested in the access control. Is every GAM 
client allowed to connect to the server? Or is there some access 
control? And finally: Is there anything else useful, you could tell me?

Thank's in advance!

Michael
