Storage Center 5.5 System Manager User Guide

Volumes

When creating a server cluster, Storage Center attempts to map an included volume to the

same LUN on all cluster servers. If the LUN selected is not available on a particular
server, the mapping is not performed and the volume is only partially connected to
the cluster.

Mapping a Volume to Remote System

Mapping a volume to a remote system causes the volume to appear as a remote volume
on the remote system. The volume can then be used as a replication target.

To map a volume to a remote system

1 In the system tree, select an unmapped volume.

2 From the shortcut menu, select Map Volume to Remote System. A list of remote

systems appears.

3 Select a remote system.

a Optional: Click Advanced to restrict mapping paths.
