)

Facilitate communication between the server administrator who defines storage pool entries,
and the storage administrator who creates, presents, and zones storage (see

“Easing

communication between server and storage administrators”

)

Request initiator WWNs for storage preallocation

“Requesting server (initiator) WWNs for

storage preallocation”

)

Modify server information to include details about local disks (see

“Modifying physical

servers with local disk information”

)
