Figure 1 P63x0/P65x0 multi-protocol management and data connectivity example Figure 2 (page 11) illustrates HP P6000 Command View management of the P63x0/P65x0 through the iSCSI connectivity and the 1 GbE iSCSI modules through IP connectivity. When LUN 0 from each controller is presented through the iSCSI or FCoE connectivity, HP P6000 Command View can manage the P63x0/P65x0 EVA controllers. Figure 2 (page 11) and Figure 3 (page 11) illustrate servers running HP P6000 Command View with iSCSI and FCoE connectivity in support of P6000 management. These configurations are supported based on the auto-presentation of the P6000 controller's LUN 0 to the iSCSI or FCoE initiators. The iSCSI connectivity requires that the initiator discover the P6000 LUN 0 targets and that the initiator log in to the targets before HP P6000 Command View discovery. Starting from an uninitialized P6000 system with iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE controllers, follow these steps to enable use of HP P6000 Command View management: 1. Configure the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management and data port IP addresses using the CLI. 2. Verify that the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management and data port cables are installed. 3. From the HP P6000 Command View server, select the iSCSI Initiator Properties Discovery tab and Discover or ADD Target portal tab and enter at least one iSCSI target portal IP address for each iSCSI module. 4. Select the iSCSI Initiator Properties Targets tab and log in at least once to each iSCSI target. TIP: Additional target port discovery and logins can provide redundant connectivity. 5. Run HP P6000 Command View, discover the Storage System, and select the system to be managed by this instance of HP P6000 Command View. 6. Initialize the storage system and then navigate to the Hardware > iSCSI Devices on the navigation pane and click Discover iSCSI Devices from the right pane. With a CNA and FCOE initiator-connected HP P6000 Command View server connected to the iSCSI/FCoE modules, ensure that the initiator and FCoE target portals and target ports are in a 10 Reviewing and confirming your plans

Figure 1 P63x0/P65x0 multi-protocol management and data connectivity example
Figure 2 (page 11)
illustrates HP P6000 Command View management of the P63x0/P65x0 through
the iSCSI connectivity and the 1 GbE iSCSI modules through IP connectivity. When LUN 0 from
each controller is presented through the iSCSI or FCoE connectivity, HP P6000 Command View
can manage the P63x0/P65x0 EVA controllers.
Figure 2 (page 11)
and
Figure 3 (page 11)
illustrate servers running HP P6000 Command View
with iSCSI and FCoE connectivity in support of P6000 management. These configurations are
supported based on the auto-presentation of the P6000 controller‘s LUN 0 to the iSCSI or FCoE
initiators. The iSCSI connectivity requires that the initiator discover the P6000 LUN 0 targets and
that the initiator log in to the targets before HP P6000 Command View discovery.
Starting from an uninitialized P6000 system with iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE controllers, follow these
steps to enable use of HP P6000 Command View management:
1.
Configure the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management and data port IP addresses using the CLI.
2.
Verify that the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management and data port cables are installed.
3.
From the HP P6000 Command View server, select the iSCSI Initiator Properties Discovery tab
and Discover or ADD Target portal tab and enter at least one iSCSI target portal IP address
for each iSCSI module.
4.
Select the iSCSI Initiator Properties Targets tab and log in at least once to each iSCSI target.
TIP:
Additional target port discovery and logins can provide redundant connectivity.
5.
Run HP P6000 Command View, discover the Storage System, and select the system to be
managed by this instance of HP P6000 Command View.
6.
Initialize the storage system and then navigate to the
Hardware > iSCSI Devices
on the
navigation pane and click
Discover iSCSI Devices
from the right pane.
