4 Storage configuration After all of the nodes have been configured, configure the storage: • Establishing communication between the VLS300 and the EVA • Managing VLS300 capacity • Installing capacity licenses Establishing communication between the VLS300 and the EVA Verifying array zoning Verify that you have configured the zoning between the EVA ports and all storage ports on all the nodes of your VLS300. For example, storage ports 2 and 3 on each node should connect to different SAN zones/fabrics; EVA controllers should also be connected to both zones/fabrics. If you have not done so, refer to the VLS solutions guide to do so now. Presenting the LUNs 1. Gather the device WWPNs. a. From Command View VLS, select the System tab. b. From the Navigation Tree, select Nodes, then a specific node, then Fibre Channel. The status pane displays information about the FC ports including the world wide port names (WWPNs) (Figure 14). Figure 14 Fibre Channel details window c. Write down the WWPN for each storage port on the node. There is no need to write down the WWPNs for the host ports. d. Repeat these steps for each node on the VLS300. 2. Create a host entry for the VLS device using the WWPNs gathered in the previous step: HP StorageWorks 37

gure the storage:
•
Establishing communication between the VLS300 and the EVA
•
Managing VLS300 capacity
•
Installing capacity licenses

Verifying array zoning
Verify that you have con

gured the zoning between the EVA ports and all storage ports on all the nodes
of your VLS300. For example, storage ports 2 and 3 on each node should connect to different SAN
zones/fabrics; EVA controllers should also be connected to both zones/fabrics. If you have not done
so, refer to the
VLS solutions guide
to do so now.
Presenting the LUNs
1.
Gather the device WWPNs.
a.
From Command View VLS, select the
System
tab.
b.
From the Navigation Tree, select
