Linux Installation Checklist Task With Access Logix Reference Document 13 Server ❑ If you did not reboot the server in step 12, reboot the server now. Linux documentation Make target SPs available ❑ Checkpoint - Use Navisphere Manager's Connectivity Status dialog box to verify that each HBA is registered with the storage system. Navisphere Manager administrator's guide and online help ❑ Checkpoint - Make sure the /proc/scsi/scsi directory has entries for LUNZs. Note: LUNZs are required to register the server HBAs with the storage system because LUNs have not be configured yet. Linux documentation ❑ Checkpoint - Make sure the file for the HBAs, in the /proc/scsi directory, has entries for the expected targets (HBAs). 14 Storage System Configure ❑ Use Navisphere Manager to set general storage-system properties. ❑ Use Navisphere Manager to create RAID Groups, bind LUNs, create Storage Groups, and assign LUNs to Storage Groups. Navisphere Manager administrator's guide and online help ❑ Use Navisphere Manager to connect the server to a Storage Group ❑ Reload the driver (if the driver is loaded as a module) or reboot the server HBA documentation (if the driver is static to the kernel) so that Linux recognizes the LUNs. (see URL on page 3-4) Now the LUNs in the Storage Group look like any other disks in the server. ❑ Checkpoint - Make sure all LUNs have entries in the /proc/scsi/scsi directory and in the file for the HBAs in the /proc/scsi directory. If any LUN entries are missing from the file, verify the zoning. Linux documentation 15 Server Prepare Server for PowerPath ❑ Make sure you have 128 sd and sg devices in the /dev directory. ❑ Ensure that the PowerPath driver's major numbers (232-239) are not already in use.
