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 39)
•
“Defining the paths” (page 39)
•
“Setting the host mode and host group mode for the disk array ports” (page 40)
•
“Configuring the Fibre Channel ports” (page 41)
2.
“Installing and configuring the host” (page 42)
•
“Loading the operating system and software” (page 42)
•
“Installing and configuring the FCAs ” (page 42)
•
“Configuring NetWare client” (page 42)
•
“Configuring NetWare ConsoleOne” (page 42)
•
“Clustering and fabric zoning” (page 43)
•
“Fabric zoning and LUN security for multiple operating systems” (page 43)
3.
“Connecting the disk array” (page 44)
•
“Verifying new device recognition” (page 44)
4.
“Configuring disk devices” (page 44)
•
“Creating the disk partitions” (page 44)
•
“Assigning the new devices to volumes” (page 46)
•
“Mounting the new volumes” (page 47)
•
“Verifying client operations” (page 48)
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
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 P9000 or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software or XP Remote Web Console (shown)
to define paths between hosts and volumes (LUNs) in the disk array.
This process is also called “LUN mapping.” In the XP Remote Web Console, LUN mapping includes:
•
Configuring ports
•
Enabling LUN security on the ports
