5. Create LUNs (export volumes) to share logical storage with initiators. For example:
lun:create myVolume newgroup 21:00:00:24:ff:67:5f:60
21:00:00:24:ff:67:5f:61
This creates a LUN by exporting
myVolume
to the initiator group
newgroup
using the
specified target port WWPNs.
6. Enter the Setup screen after the First Boot process has completed, so you can change values
as needed:
system:maintenance on
(do this for both nodes if in HA mode)
system:setup <screen>
(where
<screen>
is one of the following Setup screens to
display:
lan
,
cluster
,
timezone
,
password
, or
resetios
). For details, see system:setup .
system:maintenance off
(do this for both nodes if in HA mode)
7. Use the plural of various commands (
raids
,
initiators
,
volumes
, etc.) to display
information about the objects in the ION Accelerator system.
Creating and Deleting Multiple Volumes or LUNs
The following commands illustrate how to use the
shell:each
and
shell:seq
commands to
create loops that automate common, repetitive tasks. For complete syntax on these commands,
refer to
shell:each and shell:seq in Appendix A: Shell Commands for Scripting.
• Create 16 unique volumes of 100GB each, in RAID10_POOL_1, where each volume name
begins with “vol” followed by a number:
each (seq 16) {volume:create vol$1 100 RAID10_POOL_1
• Delete volumes “vol9” through “vol16”:
each (seq --first 9 16) {volume:delete vol$1}
• Create 16 unique LUNs in the
win
initiator group, using all available targets, where each
volume name begins with “vol” followed by a number:
each (seq 16) {lun:create vol$1 win -a}
Sample Command Set
The set of commands listed below shows how CLI commands can be used to do the following
tasks:
• Create a Reliable Performance storage pool profile.
• Create a
Test2
volume on an HA cluster, with a size of 595GB, for
pool_md3
.
• Create an initiator group
BLUE2
for the volume.
