Adding Devices to a FA ECC
Once you have created meta devices inside of ECC, the next step is to path them down an FA. Later these devices can be made accessable to hosts down the FAs selected in these steps.
1. In ECC select:
- Storgare systems
- Symmetrix Arrays
- Right click on the appropiate Symm
- Select configure
- Select SRD Device Mapping
2. On the left side select the needed Meta Devices
BCV Devices are for Business continuous volumes
Standards are for regular volumes
3. On the right side select the correct FA and port address to map the devices down. FAports should be select using the rule of seventeen (i.e. 7+10, 8+9,...)
4. Push the Continue button and then edit the command.
5. Changed the automatically assigned LUN numbers to the desired LUN number (we start our LUNs at address 20 or if there are already LUNs assigned to the FA then we use the next available LUN number).
6. Press the continue button and you are done!
