HP 3Gb SAS Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class - Manual (Page 75)

Assigning a zone group to a server device bay
Server bays cannot access external storage connected to the switch until assigned a zone group.
IMPORTANT:
•
Depending on the BladeSystem c-Class enclosure model, server type, mezzanine slot used,
BladeSystem server device bay, and BladeSystem interconnect bay, zone groups assigned to
a server must be associated with storage enclosures connected to switch ports 1–4 or 5–8.
Failure to follow these guidelines will result in an unsupported configuration. For more
information, see
“Zoning requirements and device mappings” (page 7) .
•
For a newly created zone group, when assigning the zone group to a server device bay, if
RAID 1+0 arrays will be created, you must first power off the server blades. Restart the servers
after completing the assignments and saving all changes in the VSM.
•
For an existing zone group, when changing the assignment to move the zone group to a
different server device bay, you must first stop all associated I/O with the zone group and
power off the server blades. After completing the assignments and saving all changes in the
VSM, restart the servers and resume I/O.
1. [Optional] Verify the status of the enclosure server device bays. Use the show command to
display all configured zone groups.
The display of this example is abbreviated, retaining key details. Drive bays 1 through 7 are
included in the zone group named zone1, which is assigned to server device bay 1; drive
bays 8 through 14 are included in the zone group named zone2, which is assigned to server
device bay 2, and drive bays 29 through 35 are included in the zone group named zone5,
which is not yet assigned to a server device bay.
