Re: GUI interface for seeing internal disk -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

That existed in the long retired 'dead-nav' but I believe it was completely retired. Issue being that a) It's a lot of work to keep updating those GUI's with locations and shapes and types and all, and b) with SO many systems moving to SAN disk it becomes a service used by fewer and fewer. c) Add in NVMe where many disk units are actually a single NVMe module and it gets pretty hard to support maintaining such a thing.

IBM used to have an interface for dealing with internal disk on IBM i. You could see a picture of each main unit and expansion units. Then see the disk slots and whether they were occupied or not. You could even use this interface to add or replace drives.
Do they have anything like this anymore which is currently supported?
