The method signature is described below: uint32 HidePaths ( [Out] CIM_ConcreteJob ref Job, [In] String LUNames[], [In] String InitiatorPortIDs[], [In] String TargetPortIDs[], [In] String DeviceNumbers[], [In/Out] CIM_SCSIProtocolController ref ProtocolController[], [In] boolean NoVCN, [Out] String ResultDescriptions[]); • Job: This is ignored since the storage system does not support job control. • LUNames[]: An array of IDs of logical unit instances. The LU instances must already exist. The members of this array must match the Name property of the StorageVolume instances. • InitiatorPortIDs[]: IDs of initiator ports (host HBA WWNs) • TargetPortIDs[]: IDs of target ports (the storage system's front-end FC port). • DeviceNumbers[]: A list of logical unit numbers corresponding to the logical unit in the LUNames parameter. This is a vendor-specific extension and therefore is optional. • ProtocolControllers[]: An array of references to SCSIProtocolControllers (SPCs). On input, this contains exactly one element; there may be multiple references on output. If SPC is included on input, this can either be a reference to TPD_SCSIController for FC host or TPD_iSCSIController orTPD_iSCSINode for iSCSI host. • NoVCN: Do not issue a VLUN (Virtual Logical Unit Number) Change Notification (VCN) after removal. For direct connect or loop configuration, a VCN consists of a fibre channel Loop Initialization Primitive (LIP). For fabric configuration a VCN consists of Registered State Change Notification (RSCN) being sent to the fabric controller. This parameter is a vendor-specific extension. The default value is false. • ResultDescriptions[]: An array of descriptive text of the result of the operation, with each entry containing the result of each hide path operation. This parameter is a vendor-specific extension .

The method signature is described below:

[Out] CIM_ConcreteJob ref Job,
[In] String LUNames[],
[In] String InitiatorPortIDs[],
[In] String TargetPortIDs[],
[In] String DeviceNumbers[],
[In/Out] CIM_SCSIProtocolController ref ProtocolController[],
[In] boolean NoVCN,
[Out] String ResultDescriptions[]);
Job
: This is ignored since the storage system does not support job control.
LUNames[]
: An array of IDs of logical unit instances. The LU instances must already exist. The
members of this array must match the Name property of the
StorageVolume
instances.
InitiatorPortIDs[]
: IDs of initiator ports (host HBA WWNs)
TargetPortIDs[]
: IDs of target ports (the storage system’s front-end FC port).
DeviceNumbers[]
: A list of logical unit numbers corresponding to the logical unit in the
LUNames
parameter. This is a vendor-specific extension and therefore is optional.
ProtocolControllers[]
: An array of references to
SCSIProtocolControllers
(SPCs). On
input, this contains exactly one element; there may be multiple references on output. If SPC is
included on input, this can either be a reference to
TPD_SCSIController
for FC host or
TPD_iSCSIController
or
TPD_iSCSINode
for iSCSI host.
NoVCN
: Do not issue a VLUN (Virtual Logical Unit Number) Change Notification (VCN) after
removal. For direct connect or loop configuration, a VCN consists of a fibre channel Loop
Initialization Primitive (LIP). For fabric configuration a VCN consists of Registered State Change
Notification (RSCN) being sent to the fabric controller. This parameter is a vendor-specific
extension. The default value is false.
ResultDescriptions[]
: An array of descriptive text of the result of the operation, with each entry
containing the result of each hide path operation. This parameter is a vendor-specific extension
.
