You and the HP service representative each play a role in installation. The HP service representative
is responsible for installing the disk array and formatting the disk devices. You are responsible for
configuring the host server for the new devices with assistance from the HP service representative.
Installation roadmap
Perform these actions to install and configure the disk array:
1.
“Installing and configuring the disk array” (page 52)
“Defining the paths” (page 53)
“Setting the host mode for the disk array ports” (page 54)
“Setting the UUID” (page 54)
“Setting the system option modes” (page 55)
“Configuring the Fibre Channel ports” (page 55)
2.
“Installing and configuring the host” (page 55)
“Loading the operating system and software” (page 56)
“Installing and configuring the FCAs ” (page 56)
“Clustering and fabric zoning” (page 56)
“Fabric zoning and LUN security for multiple operating systems” (page 57)
3.
“Configuring FC switches” (page 57)
4.
“Connecting the disk array” (page 57)
“Verifying disk array device recognition” (page 57)
5.
“Configuring disk array devices” (page 58)
“Initializing and labeling the devices” (page 58)
“Mounting the devices” (page 58)
“Verifying file system operation” (page 59)
Installing and configuring the disk array
The HP service representative performs these tasks:
Assembling hardware and installing software
Loading the microcode updates
Installing and formatting devices
Configuring array groups and creating LDEVs
After these tasks are finished, use Remote Web Console, Command View Advanced Edition, or
Array Manager to complete the remaining disk array configuration tasks. If you do not have these
programs, your HP service representative can perform these tasks for you.
