HP XP External Storage Software - Manual (Page 37)

CAUTION:
You can select the mapped volume's emulation type as required. If you select an emulation
type for an open-system (such as OPEN-V), go to step 2. If you select an emulation type for
a mainframe system (such as 3390-3), go to step 3
For more information, see Mapping external LUs (Add LU) .
2. For open-system emulation types (such as OPEN-V, which HP recommends), the status of the
mapped LDEV is set to Normal and is not automatically formatted. To optimally initialize the
mapped LU's data area, use Volume Manager to format the mapped LU. For instructions, see
the HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration and Security Manager XP user guide for the
XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.
Go to step 4.
3. For mainframe-system emulation types (for example, 3390-XX), the status of the mapped LU is
set to Blockade, pending resizing and formatting. Use Volume Manager to format the volume. If
you mapped a volume for which the data area is already zero-formatted on the external array
side, use Volume Manager's Write to Control Blocks operation to restore the volume. For
instructions, see the HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration and Security Manager XP user guide
for the XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.
4. Configure the path from the Target port to the mapped volume to perform host I/O operations.
The mapped LDEV is available for host I/O operations.
After the path is set, host I/O operations to the mapped LU are available.
