Do not use the TIDs assigned to these devices for any of the disk array devices. 3. The HP service representative verifies that the status of the SCSI/Fibre Channel adapters and LDEVs is NORMAL and checks the SCSI/Fibre Channel path configuration to make sure that all TIDs for the host system are unique. 4.

Define the SCSI Paths (XP256 Only)
Use the LUN Configuration Manager feature of the Remote Control software to define
the logical unit number (LUN) mapping (SCSI-to-LDEV paths) for the devices on the
disk array. If LUN Configuration Manager is not installed, the HP service
representative configures the LUN mapping using the disk array’s SVP.

To define the SCSI paths for the new devices:
1.
Use LUN Configuration Manager to define the port ID and topology parameters
for each Fibre Channel port. The Fibre Channel port ID takes the place of the SCSI
TID in a Fibre Channel environment. Current implementation limits connectivity
to eight LUNs per Fibre Channel port.
2.
Use LUN Configuration Manager to define the SCSI paths for each new SCSI
device. Use only available TIDs and LUNs. Do not duplicate any TIDs or LUNs
on the SCSI buses.
Caution
SCSI TID 7 is usually assigned to the SCSI initiator, SCSI TID 3 is usually assigned to
the boot device, and SCSI TID 6 is usually assigned to the CD-ROM device. Do not use
the TIDs assigned to these devices for any of the disk array devices.

The HP service representative verifies that the status of the SCSI/Fibre Channel
adapters and LDEVs is NORMAL and checks the SCSI/Fibre Channel path
configuration to make sure that all TIDs for the host system are unique.
