Connect the disk array

Verifying disk array device recognition

Installation

Connect the disk array to the host as follows:

1. The HP service representative verifies operational status of the disk

array channel adapters, LDEVs, and paths.

2. The HP representative connects the Fibre Channel cables between the

host and Fibre Channel switches.

3. Create Fibre Channel zones connecting the host systems to the XP ports.

4. Use the SYSMAN program to configure each Open VMS system on the

SAN.

For a single system:

$run sys$system:sysman

sysman> io autoconfigure

For all the systems in an Open VMS cluster:

$run sys$system:sysman

sysman>set environment/cluster

sysman> io autoconfigure

5. Verify the ready status of the XP LUNs.

Verify that the host recognizes the disk array devices:

1. Log into the SYSTEM account, and enter the show device dg command:

$ show device dg

2. Check the list of peripherals on the host to verify the host recognizes all

disk array devices. If any devices are missing, check disk array path

configuration, check host HBA configuration, and check cables.

3. Record the disk numbers and other device information. You will need

the disk numbers when you format, partition, and mount the disks.
