Step 4: Configure Host Access

This step specifies which host servers access virtual disks on the storage array.

You should perform this step before mapping virtual disks to host servers or

any time you connect new host servers to the storage array.

1 Launch MDSM.
2 Navigate to the AMW and click Manually define hosts.
3 At Enter host name, enter the host server for virtual disk mapping.

This can be an informal name, not necessarily a name used to identify the

host server to the network.

4 Select a method for adding the host port identifier.
5 Select the host type.
6 Select whether or not the host server will be part of a host server group that

shares access to the same virtual disks as other host servers. Select

Yes only

if the host is part of a Microsoft cluster.

7 Click Next.
8 Specify if this host will be part of a host group, and click Finish.
