2 Preparing to use LUN Manager

System requirements

To use LUN Manager, you need:

XP12000/XP10000/SVS200 array

LUN Manager optional program

WWW client computer connected to the array via a LAN

To use LUN Manager, you must use the WWW client computer to log on to the SVP. When you are

logged on, Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console, which is a Java® applet, is downloaded to

the WWW client computer. You can perform LUN Manager operations in Command View XP or XP

Remote Web Console.
For more information about requirements for WWW client computers, see the HP StorageWorks

Command View XP user guide for XP Disk Arrays or the HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console user

guide for XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.

Configuring WWW client computers

LUN Manager operations require Command View XP or XP Remote Web Console, which is downloaded

to the WWW client computer. The WWW client computer must be connected to the array via a

LAN. Browser settings are also required on the WWW client computer. For more information, see the

HP StorageWorks Command View XP user guide for XP Disk Arrays or the HP StorageWorks XP Remote

Web Console user guide for XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.

Enabling required software

For more information about enabling LUN Manager, see the HP StorageWorks Command View

XP user guide for XP Disk Arrays or the HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console user guide for

XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.

Notes on using LUN Manager

If you attempt to apply numerous settings in the LUN Manager panes, the SVP might be unable

to continue processing. HP recommends that you make up to approximately 1,000 settings.

Numerous settings are likely to be made when alternate paths are defined (see

Copying paths

from one Fibre Channel or iSCSI port to another

), even though only two commands are required

for defining alternate paths.

Do not remove LU paths (see

Deleting LU paths

) when hosts perform I/O processing.

Do not disable LUN security (see

Disabling LUN security

) when hosts perform I/O processing.
