Mapping multiple external LUs at (Add LU (Auto))

This section describes the procedure to map multiple external LUs at one time. The procedure starts with

the Add LU (AUTO) command.

NOTE:

Before mapping the external LU, you must check whether any application (for example, RAID Manager

XP) using the command device is in progress. If any application using the command device is in

progress, stop the application.

When mapping multiple external LUs at one time, the CU:LDEV numbers for the mapped destination

internal LDEVs are assigned in a series. When performing the mapping operation, you can select the first

CU:LDEV number for the mapped destination internal LDEVs. External Storage XP assigns the selected

CU:LDEV number as the first mapped destination LDEV, and as many subsequent CU:LDEV numbers are

kept for mapping as the number external LUs required to be mapped. To automatically perform the

mapping operation, you can let External Storage XP select the first CU:LDEV number.

NOTE:

If you set Interval for the mapping, the CU:LDEV number of the internal LDEV that must be mapped

is set to the specified interval value.

CAUTION:

If the LUs you are mapping include a volume with the VMA setting, you cannot use the Add LU (AUTO)

command to map them at one time.

Use the Auto Map Setting and Select LDEV windows (

Figure 49

) for mapping multiple external LUs

at one time.
