Configuring with the Command Console LUN

The Command Console LUN (CCL) is a type of LUN that allows you
to communicate with the controller from the host using StorageWorks
Command Console (SWCC) or CLI commands instead of using the
maintenance port cable.

The most common tasks performed with the CCL include:

n

Configuring storage units

n

Preparing the subsystem for use

n

Checking a failed set

n

Checking performance with VTDPY

n

Troubleshooting with FMU

Note Do not use the CCL with HSUTIL, FRUTIL, or DILX. The host
and controller must communicate through the maintenance port cable
when using these utilities and exercisers. Also, do not use the CCL to
troubleshoot and maintain the controller. Instead, run the utilities and
exercisers with the local connection that uses the maintenance port
cable. See “Establishing a Local Connection to the Controller,” page
2–7.

Enabling and Disabling the CCL

If you have not configured any units and have not yet enabled the CCL,
you must first establish a local connection through the maintenance port
cable to provide a means of enabling CCL. See “Establishing a Local
Connection to the Controller,” page 2–9.
Once the CCL is enabled, you
can communicate with the controller over the host port connection
instead of through the maintenance port connection.

If the the CCL is not automatically enabled on your controller, use the
following command:

SET THIS_CONTROLLER COMMAND_CONSOLE_LUN
