Example of a Spreadsheet

This section shows an example of a spreadsheet that can be used for mapping an external volume in the following configuration:

An external volume is configured as follows:

Map the volume to which 0001 is configured as a LUN that can be discovered through the primary path.

Use 1 for a path group number.

Configure E16384-4095 for an external volume group (ExG).

Two cross-subsystem paths are configured as follows:

The primary path

Port number on the local storage system: 1A

WWN on the external storage system: 60060E8004F81370

The alternate path

Port number on the local storage system: 1B

WWN on the external storage system: 60060E8004F81371

Attributes of an external volume are configured as follows:

Emulation type: OPEN-V

Cache mode: Enable
