Note: LUNZs are required to register the server HBAs with the storage

 

 

 

system because LUNs have not be configured yet.

 

 

 

Checkpoint - Make sure the file for the HBAs, in the /proc/scsi directory,

 

 

 

has entries for the expected targets (HBAs).

Now the LUNs in the Storage Group look like any other disks in the server.

 

 

 

Checkpoint - Make sure all LUNs have entries in the /proc/scsi/scsi

directory and in the file for the HBAs in the /proc/scsi directory.

 

 

 

If any LUN entries are missing from the file, verify the zoning.
