Changing host mappings For each volume that is mapped to the selected host, you can create, modify, and delete explicit mappings. To change a volume's default mapping, see Changing a volume's default mapping on page 64. CAUTION: Volume mapping changes take effect immediately. Make changes that limit access to volumes when the volumes are not in use. Be sure to unmount a mapped volume from a host system before changing the mapping's LUN. To view host mappings In the Configuration View panel, right-click a host and select Provisioning > Manage Host Mappings. The main panel shows the following information about volumes mapped to the host: • Type. Explicit or Default. Settings for an explicit mapping override the default mapping. • Name. Volume name. • Serial Number. Volume serial number. • Ports. Controller host ports through which the volume is mapped to the host. • LUN. Volume identifier presented to the host. • Access. Volume access type: read-write, read-only, no-access (masked), or not-mapped. To create an explicit mapping 1. In the Maps for Host table, select the Default mapping to override. 2. Select Map. 3. Set the LUN and select the ports and access type. 4. Click Apply. A message specifies whether the change succeeded or failed. 5. Click OK. The mapping becomes Explicit with the new settings. To modify an explicit mapping 1. In the Maps for Host table, select the Explicit mapping to change. 2. Set the LUN and select the ports and access type. 3. Click Apply. A message specifies whether the change succeeded or failed. 4. Click OK. The mapping settings are updated. To delete an explicit mapping 1. In the Maps for Host table, select the Explicit mapping to delete. 2. Clear Map. 3. Click Apply. A message specifies whether the change succeeded or failed. 4. Click OK. The mapping returns to the Default mapping. Configuring CHAP For iSCSI, you can use Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) to perform authentication between the initiator and target of a login request. To perform this identification, a database of CHAP entries must exist on each device. Each CHAP entry can specify one name-secret pair to authenticate the initiator only (one-way CHAP) or two pairs to authenticate both the initiator and the target (mutual CHAP). For a login request from an iSCSI host to a storage system, the host is the initiator and the storage system is the target. To enable or disable CHAP for all iSCSI hosts, see Changing host interface settings on page 45. 72 Provisioning the system

Provisioning the system
Changing host mappings
For each volume that is mapped to the selected host, you can create, modify, and delete explicit mappings.
To change a volume's default mapping, see
Changing a volume's default mapping
on page 64.
CAUTION:
Volume mapping changes take effect immediately. Make changes that limit access to volumes
when the volumes are not in use. Be sure to unmount a mapped volume from a host system before
changing the mapping's LUN.
To view host mappings
In the Configuration View panel, right-click a host and select
Provisioning > Manage Host Mappings
. The
main panel shows the following information about volumes mapped to the host:
Type. Explicit or Default. Settings for an explicit mapping override the default mapping.
Name. Volume name.
Serial Number. Volume serial number.
Ports. Controller host ports through which the volume is mapped to the host.
LUN. Volume identifier presented to the host.
Access. Volume access type: read-write, read-only, no-access (masked), or not-mapped.
To create an explicit mapping
1.
In the Maps for Host table, select the Default mapping to override.
2.
Select
Map
.
3.
Set the LUN and select the ports and access type.
4.
Click
Apply
. A message specifies whether the change succeeded or failed.
5.
Click
OK
. The mapping becomes Explicit with the new settings.
To modify an explicit mapping
1.
In the Maps for Host table, select the Explicit mapping to change.
2.
Set the LUN and select the ports and access type.
3.
Click
Apply
. A message specifies whether the change succeeded or failed.
4.
Click
OK
. The mapping settings are updated.
To delete an explicit mapping
1.
In the Maps for Host table, select the Explicit mapping to delete.
2.
Clear
Map
.
3.
Click
Apply
. A message specifies whether the change succeeded or failed.
4.
Click
OK
. The mapping returns to the Default mapping.
Configuring CHAP
For iSCSI, you can use Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) to perform authentication
between the initiator and target of a login request.
To perform this identification, a database of CHAP entries must exist on each device. Each CHAP entry can
specify one name-secret pair to authenticate the initiator only (one-way CHAP) or two pairs to authenticate
both the initiator and the target (mutual CHAP). For a login request from an iSCSI host to a storage system,
the host is the initiator and the storage system is the target.
To enable or disable CHAP for all iSCSI hosts, see
Changing host interface settings
on page 45.
