The web-based storage management capability enables you to conveniently manage the array through the web without having to load the entire Sun StorEdge Configuration Service package. The following steps describe how to set up the array for web-based management and how to access it through a web browser.
NOTE: This feature requires Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage
Manager Topology Reporter to be installed, which is included in the
Sun StorEdge Enterprise Storage Manager software. Refer to the Other
Supported Software section in the Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Release
Notes for your array for more information.
NOTE: This feature is not supported on the Linux OS; that is, if the agent has been installed on a Linux OS, the Configure Web Server option on the Custom Configure window is unavailable. You can use a Linux OS web browser to load the console, but the agent must be installed on a Solaris OS.

Setting Up the Array
Although the entire Sun StorEdge Configuration Service package isn't
required to be loaded on the machine that is going to be used to access
the array from the web, a few Sun StorEdge Configuration
Service files are needed; therefore, the entire package must be installed
on another server so you can transfer files from it to the array. The following procedure describes how to conveniently
transfer the necessary files to set up web management.
