NOTE:

When using the A5158 Fibre Channel adapter, list the WWN for the device with

the device file name as follows:

/opt/fcms/bin/fcmsutil <device file name>

5.

Record the WWN and repeat the above steps for each Fibre Channel device that you want
to use.

Creating a host group and registering hosts in the host group (in a Fibre Channel
environment)

The Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role is required to perform this task.

After discovering the WWNs of the host bus adapters, create a host group and register hosts in
the host groups in a fibre channel environment.

You can connect multiple server hosts of different platforms to one port of your HP XP7 Storage.
When configuring your storage system, you should group server hosts connected to the storage
system by host groups. For example, if HP-UX hosts and Windows hosts are connected to a port,
create one host group for HP-UX hosts and create another host group for Windows hosts. Then
