• Assembling hardware and installing software • Loading the microcode updates • Installing and formatting devices After these tasks are finished, use XP Remote Web Console, P9000 or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software, or XP 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. Defining the paths Use XP Remote Web Console (shown) or P9000 or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software to define paths (LUNs) between hosts and volumes in the disk array. This process is also called "LUN mapping." In XP Remote Web Console, LUN mapping includes: • Configuring ports • Enabling LUN security on the ports • Creating host groups • Assigning Fibre Channel adapter WWNs to host groups • Mapping volumes (LDEVs) to host groups (by assigning LUNs) In P9000 or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software, LUN mapping includes: • Configuring ports • Creating storage groups • Mapping volumes and WWN/host access permissions to the storage groups For more information about LUN mapping, see the HP StorageWorks XP LUN Manager User's Guide, HP StorageWorks XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager user guide: HP XP12000 Disk Array, HP XP10000 Disk Array, HP 200 Storage Virtualization System, or Remote Web Console online help. Note the LUNs and their ports, WWNs, nicknames, and LDEVs for later use in verifying host and device configuration. 10 Installing and configuring Windows for the XP family of disk arrays

This process is also called
LUN mapping.
In XP Remote Web Console, LUN mapping includes:
Configuring ports
Enabling LUN security on the ports
Creating host groups
Assigning Fibre Channel adapter WWNs to host groups
Mapping volumes (LDEVs) to host groups (by assigning LUNs)
In P9000 or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software, LUN mapping includes:
Configuring ports
Creating storage groups
Mapping volumes and WWN/host access permissions to the storage groups
