Only the number of entries entered in this screen will be automatically mapped. More will need to be added manually if this number is not high enough (see the “Required Static Edge LUN Mapping” section).

Selecting the Add Automatic Datapath Mapping Entries check box, causes the Edge node 10 to become the target and node 20 the initiator. The Edge target connects to hosts and the Edge initiator connects to tape devices.

NOTE: The number entered into the Number of New Entries field specifies the maximum number of devices that can be automatically discovered and mapped.

If you do not want to add any automatically mapped data path entries, de-select the Add Automatic DataPath Mapping Entries check box.

The FC Device Extension DataPath Wizard - Automatic DataPath Mapping dialog box appears.
