You can set up syslog event notifications with either the management GUI or the command-line interface (CLI).

Adding a node or enclosure to increase the size of the system
You can add an enclosure to the system by using the CLI or management GUI. An enclosure can be added to the system if the enclosure previously failed and is being replaced with a new enclosure or if a repair action causes the enclosure to be unrecognizable by the system. Adding an enclosure to the system increases the capacity of the entire system. When you add an enclosure to a system, check that the licensed functions of the system support the additional enclosure. For more information, see Licensed functions .
