Checking External Storage XP volume status (LDEV Information)
When mapping an LU on an external disk array as a local disk array LDEV, the LU on the external array
becomes available for External Storage XP operations, Flex Copy operations, and other operations by
other Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console programs that support mapped external volumes.
However, when errors occur in the paths between the local disk array and the external device, the local
disk array blocks the status of the External Storage XP volume (status is Blockade). Use the LDEV
Information window to restore the state of an External Storage XP volume with Blockade status.
You can perform the following operations using the LDEV Information window:
•
Obtaining information about external LUs
•
Restoring external LUs (Restore)
•
Displaying configuration information for external LUs (Volume Detail)
