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, XP RAID
Manager) 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. XP External Storage 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 XP External Storage 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.
