Logical Addr. (RCU CU): allows you to enter the CU number of the RCU being added. The CU
number differs by the specified controller ID as follows:
•
When the specified controller ID is 5 (XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array), you can select a CU
number from 0 to FE.
•
When the specified controller ID is 4 (XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array), you can select a CU
number from 0 to 3F.
•
When the specified controller ID is 3 (XP1024/XP128 Disk Array), you can select a CU
number from 0 to 1F.
SSID: allows you to enter the SSID(s) of the RCU being added. HP disk arrays use one SSID for
each set of 256 volumes and one SSID for each set of 64 volumes or four SSIDs per CU. SSID is
4-FFFF (hexadecimal).
MCU-RCU Path: displays different boxes depending on the channel interface type (fibre).
•
MCU Port: allows you to select the MCU port number from the drop-down list or to enter the
port number directly. Initiator ports are listed.
•
RCU Port: allows you to select the RCU port number from the drop-down list or to enter the
port number directly. You must select RCU target ports.
You can specify the port number with two characters. For instance, you can abbreviate CL1-A to
1A. You can also enter the port number in both lowercase and uppercase characters.
The Option button opens the RCU Option dialog box. The Cancel button cancels the settings you
made on the Add RCU dialog box and closes the dialog box.
To add an RCU to the connected MCU:
1.
Make sure the remote copy connections and ports are properly configured. Get the S/N and
SSID(s) for the desired CU of the RCU. The add RCU operation will fail without this information.
The XP storage system should have a label or tag indicating its S/N and SSIDs, or ask your
HP representative for the RCU S/N and SSIDs.
2.
Click the RCU Operation tab, click MCU&RCU display button, and select the desired CU in
the tree. You must add RCUs to each CU separately.
3.
Right-click the list (an RCU does not have to be selected), click RCU Operation, and click Add
RCU to open the Add RCU dialog box (see
“Add RCU Dialog Box” (page 106)
).
4.
On the Add RCU dialog box, enter the S/N, LDKC number, controller ID (5 for an
XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array, 4 for XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array, 3 for an XP1024/XP128
Disk Array), CU number, and SSID(s) for the desired RCU CU. The MCU verifies the S/N
when the paths are established, and verifies the SSIDs when the pairs are created. If desired,
you can add and delete SSIDs later using the Add SSID dialog box.
5.
Select the MCU port and RCU port (for fibre). The MCU will not allow you to establish less
than the minimum number of paths as specified on the RCU Option dialog box. If desired,
you can add and delete paths later using the Add Path dialog box.
6.
Click Option to open the RCU Option dialog box, and enter the desired settings for the
TrueCopy for Mainframe RCU options. When you have TrueCopy for Mainframe Async pairs
configured on Fibre Channel interface, set the same value for the Minimum Paths option for
all RCUs.
7.
Click Set to close the RCU Option dialog box, even if you made no changes. (click Cancel to
cancel the add RCU operations.) The preview list now displays the requested add RCU
operation(s).
8.
Verify the requested operation(s) displayed in the preview list.
To change one or more operations, select the operation(s), right-click the preview list, and
click Modify. To remove one or more operations, select the operation(s), right-click the preview
