-TeemIp's Storage Management module is iTop's Storage Management module that has been slightly adapted to integrate with TeemIp' specific IP objects. For a comprehensive reference to that module, please, refer to the [[https://wiki.openitop.org/doku.php?id=2_3_0:datamodel:itop-storage-mgmt|Storage Management]] chapter in iTop wiki.
+TeemIP's Storage Management module relies on iTop's Storage Management module that has been slightly adapted to integrate with TeemIP' specific IP objects. For a comprehensive reference to that module, please, refer to the [[https://wiki.openitop.org/doku.php?id=2_3_0:datamodel:itop-storage-mgmt|Storage Management]] chapter in iTop wiki.
-Here below is the list of iTop storage CIs that have been modified by TeemIp.
+The Storage Devices that have been modified by TeemIP are:
+^  Class of CIs  ^  Icon  ^  Description  ^
+|  Storage System  |  {{icons8-server-storage.png}}  | A Storage System is used in TeemIP to describe any storage system that can be attached either to a SAN or to an Ethernet network. The logical unit of storage managed by a Storage System is a Logical Volume. |
+|  SAN Switch  |  {{icons8-switch-san.png}}  | A SAN Switch is a network switch compatible with the Fibre Channel protocol used by storage networks. |
+|  Tape Library   |  {{icons8-tape-library.png}}  | A Tape Library is a storage device which contains one or more tape drives, a number of slots to hold tape cartridges and an automated method for loading tapes. Tape Libraries are used for data backup or archiving. |
+|  NAS  |  {{icons8-nas.png}}  | A Network-Attached Storage system (in short: NAS) is a specialized file server appliance that connects to the network. In iTop a NAS is linked to NAS File Systems. |
-===== Storage System ====
+One attributes have been added to all these classes.
-{{classicon_storagesystem.png  }}
-A Storage System is used in TeemIp to describe any storage system that can be attached either to a SAN or to an Ethernet network. The logical unit of storage managed by a Storage System is a Logical Volume.
-=== Storage System Properties ===
-Only one attribute is affected by TeemIP.
 ^  Name  ^  Type  ^  Mandatory?  ^
-| Management IP | Foreign key to a(n) IPv4 or IPv6 Address | No |
+| IP Address | Foreign key to a(n) IPv4 or IPv6 Address | No |
-Upon creation or modification, a management IP can be set as a foreign key to an IP address. A drop-down box will list a choice of available IP addresses.
+Upon creation or modification, an IP Address attribute can be set as a foreign key to an IP address. A drop-down box will list a choice of available IP addresses.
 <note>
-  * Only addresses which status is released or unassigned (ie not allocated nor reserved) will be offered,
+  * According to the **Allow attachment of already allocated IPs to CIs** parameter defined in the [[2_x:datamodel:ip-settings|Global IP Settings]] of the IP's organization:
-  * Status of IP is automatically changed when IP is attached to a device or server or removed from it,
+    * Only addresses which status is //**released**// or //**unassigned**// (i.e. not allocated nor reserved) will be offered,
+    * Or
+    * Only addresses which status is //**allocated**//, //**released**// or //**unassigned**// (i.e. not reserved) will be offered,
+  * Status of IP is automatically changed when IP is attached to the data centre device or removed from it,
   * If enabled through IP settings, CI name is copied into IP short name.

-===== SAN Switch ====
+===== Fiber Channel Interfaces =====
-{{classicon_sanswitch.png  }}
+{{icons8-globe-fiber.png  }}
-A SAN Switch is a network switch compatible with the Fibre Channel protocol used by storage networks.
+A Fibre Channel Interface, is a network interface to a high-speed network technology primarily used for connecting shared storage devices (Storage Systems in iTop).
-=== SAN Switch Properties ===
+Next to the modifications listed above, TeemIP modifies the Fiber Channel Interface class by adding a status to it.
-Only one attribute is affected by TeemIP.
 ^  Name  ^  Type  ^  Mandatory?  ^
-| Management IP | Foreign key to a(n) IPv4 or IPv6 Address | No |
+| Status | Possible values: Active, Inactive | Yes |
-Upon creation or modification, a management IP can be set as a foreign key to an IP address. A drop-down box will list a choice of available IP addresses.
