External Storage XP for the XP10000/XP12000

Select Paths button
Displays the Select Paths pane (see

Figure 27

) appears. Use the Select Paths pane to select paths as

candidates for primary and alternate paths and select paths that cannot be set to primary and alternate

paths. By default, all paths with a confirmed connection status of normal are set as candidates for

primary and alternate paths. However, to set a specific path as the alternate path, use the Select Paths

pane to specify candidates for alternate paths. Alternate paths are set automatically from the

candidates, as many as the number set in Alternate Path.

CAUTION:

If you do not set alternate paths on the Select Paths pane, alternate paths are set

automatically according to the WWN selected in the Device Tree on the LU Operation pane when

you started the Add LU operation.

Clear button
Resets all external LU attributes.

CU list
CU number of the local disk array to which the external LU is mapped. Select the CU number from the

list.

Linear button
Maps all external LUs listed in the CU:LDEV list at one time. When you click this button and then select

an internal XP LDEV on the LDEV map, the system selects in the LDEV map the same number of internal

XP LDEVs as the number of external LUs listed in the CU:LDEV list, starting at the internal XP LDEV you

selected. The LDEV numbers of the selected internal XP LDEVs are sequential. If you want to map one

external LU to another internal XP LDEV after having mapped the external LU automatically using the

Linear button, first release the Linear button, and then map the external LU individually.

CU:LDEV list
Displays the XP10000/XP12000 CU:LDEV numbers of external LUs mapped as internal XP LDEVs.

(N/A) (Not Assigned) means the external LUs are not yet mapped as internal XP LDEVs. To map an

external LU as an internal LDEV, select an external LU with (N/A) in the CU:LDEV list. To map all external

LUs in the CU:LDEV list at one time, use the Linear button.

Interval
If you select two or more volumes in the CU:LDEV list or click Linear for mapping, you can select the

interval that arranges each volume. Values can be from 0 to 255. Default is 0.
For example, if you select three volumes in the CU:LEDV list, set Interval to 255, and map the first

volume to CU:LDEV number 00:01, the second and third volumes are mapped to 01:01 and 02:01,

respectively.

LDEV map
Each cell in the map represents an internal XP LDEV. Select a cell for the internal XP LDEV on the map.

The selected cell turns blue, and the selected LDEV is mapped to the external LU. Internal XP LDEVs that

have been mapped appear in gray, while those not yet mapped appear in white.

Previous and Next buttons
If you select several external LUs in the Device List, click Previous to map the external LU in the row just

above the currently selected external LU. Click Next to map the external LU in the row just below the

currently selected external LU.

OK button
Displays the SSID window, where you can continue with the next step of the mapping operation. When

the SSID setting is not necessary, the Add LU window closes, and the LU Operation pane appears.
The OK button is available when mapping on the Add LU window is complete.

Cancel button
Cancels all mapping operations, closes the Add LU window, and returns to the LU Operation pane.

Select Paths pane

All paths that can be set as primary and alternate paths appear in the Select Paths pane. To set a specific

path as the alternate path, use the Select Paths pane to specify candidates for alternate paths.
