Storage System

Use the following Navisphere CLI command to set the default

Navisphere CLI reference

 

 

 

Set

storage-system arraycommpath property with the following command:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

arraycommpath

navicli -h sp arraycommpath 1

 

 

 

 

mode

where sp is the IP address or network name of the SP in the storage

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

system.

This provides a path from the host initiator to the SP.

 

 

 

 

 

You will need to know the WWPN of the host initiators - available in the

 

 

 

 

 

switch’s name server table.

 

 

 

 

 

Reboot the server using the reboot ---rcommand to load the drivers and

 

 

 

 

 

perform a login of the host initiators and SPs to the fabric ports on the

 

 

 

 

 

switch.

 

 

 

 

 

Checkpoint - Use switch management software to verify that the HBAs

 

 

 

 

 

and storage systems are logged in to the switch as fabric ports, and to

 

 

 

 

 

verify that each HBA sees only the targets (SPs) to which it is zoned.

Storage Groups

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

 

 

 

 

 

recognizes the LUNs.

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

 

server.

 

 

 

 

 

Checkpoint - Use the format command to verify that the operating

 

 

 

 

 

system sees all the LUNs and label any new LUNs.
