Creating a Host Group

To specify hosts that can access volumes, you must create a host group and then register the hosts in the host group.

The following is the procedure for creating a host group. For details on how to register hosts in a host group, see Registering Hosts in a Host Group” on page 48.

CAUTION:

When creating a host group, you are strongly recommended to click the Apply button in the Volume Security window, as described in the last step of the following procedure. If you forget to click Apply, you might lose the host group when you encounter an error registering the host group and the LDEV group (see Registering a Host Group and an LDEV Group in a Security Group” on page 53).

1.Ensure that you are in Modify mode.

2.In the Volume Security window (Figure 4), double-click an LDKC number.

3.Right-click Host Group. A pop-up menu appears.
