Script Commands

Enclosure Loss Protection

For enclosure loss protection to work, each physical disk in a disk group must
be in a separate enclosure. If you set the

enclosureLossProtect parameter to

true and have selected more than one physical disk from any one enclosure,
the storage array returns an error. If you set the

enclosureLossProtect

parameter to false, the storage array performs operations, but the disk group
that you create might not have enclosure loss protection. Enclosure loss
protection is not valid when you create virtual disks on existing disk groups.

Create Host

This command creates a new host.

NOTE:

A host is a system that is attached to the storage array and accesses the

virtual disks on the storage array through its HBA host ports. You can define
specific virtual disk-to-logical unit number (LUN) mappings to an individual host or
assign the host to a host group that shares access to one or more virtual disks.
