Internal volume operations
Creating internal volumes (open-systems)
To create LDEVs of internal open-systems volumes and make the LDEVs available to the host, perform
the following provisioning operations.
Command Description Operation Step
raidcom modify port -port
<port>-security_switch y Enable LUN security of the port. Modify
settings such as port topology and data
transfer speed as needed. Setting port 1
raidcom add host_grp -port <port>
-host_grp_name <host group name> Specify port and create host group. Creating host group 2
raidcom modify host_grp -port <port>
[<host group name>] -host_mode < host Specify port and set host mode for host
group. Setting host mode 3

option> … ]
raidcom get host_grp -port <port> [<host
group name>] Display host group information and confirm
result of executing command. Displaying host
group information 4
raidcom add hba_wwn -port <port> [<host
group name>] -hba_wwn <WWN strings> Register host to host group of the port. Adding host to host
group 5
raidcom get hba_wwn -port <port> [<host
group name>] Display WWN of connection host
registered to the host group and confirm
the result of executing the command. Displaying WWN
information 6
raidcom add ldev -parity_grp_id
<gno-sgno> -ldev_id <ldev#> -capacity Specify a parity group and create LDEV. Creating LDEV 7
<size> [-emulation <emulation type>]

raidcom initialize ldev -ldev_id <ldev#>
-operation <type> Format created LDEV. Formatting LDEV 8
raidcom modify ldev -ldev_id <ldev#>
-ldev_name <ldev naming> Create nickname for created LDEV.
This operation is arbitrary.
Creating LDEV
nickname (arbitrary) 9
raidcom modify ldev -ldev_id <ldev#>
-mp_blade_id <mp#> Set MP blade of created LDEV. Setting MP blade of
LDEV 10
raidcom get ldev -ldev_id <ldev#> … [-cnt

command. Displaying LDEV
information 11
raidcom add lun -port <port> [<host group

an LU path. Creating LU path 12

the result of executing the command. Displaying LU path
information 13
