An array may not be visible to HP P6000 Command View because the controllers are waiting for you to enter the World Wide ID (WWID). This condition occurs if the arraywas uninitialized and the rack is power cycled. Enter the WWID of your system. This can also occur if back-end problems are preventing access to the quorum drives. Once communication is restored, you can re-enter the WWID and the checksum. Creating disk groups with double protection level When creating a disk group with double protection level on an array running XCS 10001000, a minimum of 10 disks is required on the array. If the disk group contains fewer than 10 drives and double protection is requested, only single protection level will be used. If all the physical disks in the disk group are of the same capacity, double protection level is achieved by reserving capacity equal to more than four times the capacity of a single disk. If the physical disks in the disk group are of different capacities, double protection is achieved by reserving capacity equal to more than the sum of the four highest capacity disks. Security credentials configuration The following Windows-based security groups are required on the management server: • HP Storage Admins- This security group is required on the management server to enable access to all features of HP P6000 Command View and must have at least one member (user account). Members have view and manage capabilities. NOTE: Group names are case sensitive. • HP Storage Users-Members have view capability only. This security group is required only when a group with extremely limited use of HP P6000 Command View is needed. Access control Access authentication proceeds as follows: 1. The user's security group is checked to control access to various functions and web pages used with HP P6000 Command View. 2. If the user belongs to the HP Storage Admins group, access is granted. 3. If the user belongs to the HP Storage Users group and the web page allows access to users with the View HP Storage privilege, access is granted. 4. If the user belongs to the HP Storage Users group and the web page does not allow access to users with the View HP Storage privilege, access is denied.
