Use Navisphere Manager to create RAID Groups, bind LUNs, create

 

 

 

Storage Groups, and assign LUNs to Storage Groups.

 

 

 

Use Navisphere Manager to connect the server to a Storage Group

 

 

 

Reboot the server using the reboot - - -rcommand so that Solaris

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