Therefore, RAID Manager supports a mountcommand option that specifies a Volume{GUID} as
well as the device object name.

Mount

The mountcommand option specifies a Volume{GUID} as well as the device object name.

If a Volume{GUID} is specified, then it is executed by converting a Volume{GUID} to a
device object name.

Discover the Volume{GUID}s by using inqraid $Volu -fv command option.

Examples:

C:\HORCM\etc>inqraid -CLI $Vol -fv
DEVICE_FILE PORT SERIAL LDEV CTG H/M/12 SSID R:Group PRODUCT_ID
Volume{cec25efe-d3b8-11d4-aead-00c00d003b1e}\Vol3\Dsk0 CL2-D 62496 256 - - - -
OPEN-3-CVS-CM

[ Mount used DefineDosDevice() ]

NOTE:

This may forcibly dismount the mounted volume due to LOG-OFF of Windows. For example:

C:\HORCM\etc>raidscan -x mount E: Volume{cec25efe-d3b8-11d4-aead-00c00d003b1e}
E: <+> HarddiskVolume3

[ Mount used Directory mount ]

NOTE:

This prevents the forcible removal of a volume due to LOG-OFF of Windows. For example:

C:\HORCM\etc>raidscan -x mount E:\ Volume{cec25efe-d3b8-11d4-aead-00c00d003b1e}
E:\ <+> HarddiskVolume3

sync

The synccommand option will also be able to specify a Volume{GUID} as well as the
device object name.

If a Volume{GUID} is specified, then it is executed by converting a Volume{GUID} to a
device object name.

Example:

C:\HORCM\etc>raidscan -x sync Volume{cec25efe-d3b8-11d4-aead-00c00d003b1e}
[SYNC] Volume{cec25efe-d3b8-11d4-aead-00c00d003b1e}

Host group control

The RAID storage systems have the defined host group in the port and can allocate a host LU for
every host group. RAID Manager does not use this host LU, and specifies an absolute LUN in the
port. To eliminate confusion that LUN of the RAID Manager notation does not correspond to LUN
on the host view and Remote Web Console, RAID Manager supports specifying a host group and
LUN on the host view.

Specifying a host group

(1) Defining the formats

The addition of arguments for the host group to the raidscan command and the configuration
file means that it is not compatible with conventional CLI. Therefore, RAID Manager provides a
way to support CLI by specifying a host group in the port strings as follows.

CL1-A-GRP# (GRP# can be up to 127)

Specifying the host group for the raidscan command:

raidscan -p

CL1-A-5

Specifying the host group for the configuration file:
