HP XP Racks - Manual (Page 33)

Conditions for a target host:

• It is not a virtual host
• At least one WWN name must be registered for the destination host
Items to check beforehand:
• Source host name
1. From the Administration tab, select Managed Resources.
2. From the Hosts tab, select the line for the target host, and then click Merge Hosts.
3. Specify the source host, and then merge the hosts.
Confirm the merged host information from the resource tree view.
About changing host settings and information
You can change host settings and update previously registered host information.
Depending on how a host was registered, there are two ways to change host settings and information:
• host updating
• host editing
The host updating method updates a host to the most recent status by obtaining information from Host
Data Collector or Device Manager agent.
The host editing method allows the user to manually change host settings.
TIP:
The settings for the host's WWN name are not linked to the settings for the host group on the storage
system side. Use the
ModifyPort command to change settings for host groups, or host mode options.
For a description of how to change the settings, HP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite
Software CLI Reference Guide.
