Adding non-HP branded arrays
The general process is:
1. Create a LUN using the array's management software with properties similar to those of an EVA
LUN, for example, failover with autofailback. Create a number of LUNs with at least one LUN
per path to the controller.
2. Present the LUN to at least one and not more than two quads per DPM and both VSM servers of
the SVSP domain, consistent with the array-to-DPM zoning.
Adding new back-end logical units from non-HP arrays
After presenting or removing any back-end LUs to the VSMs/DPMs, a rescan should be with Device
Manager on both VSMs, and the DPM CLI rescan command run on both DPMs.
1. If not already defined in the array manager (for example, HP Command View EVA), create or
define each pair of DPM quads within the DPM group as servers or hosts.
2. If not already defined in the array manager (for example, HP Command View EVA), create or
define the VSM servers as servers.
3. Create the new back-end LU.
4. Present the new back-end LU to at least one and not more than two DPM quads per DPM group
and VSM servers.
NOTE:
On some arrays, the term
present
is also known as
permission
for allowing access.
To discover new back-end LUNs, perform a rescan from Computer Management on the VSM server.
Do not use the Rescan devices option from the Windows Management GUI. Use this general procedure
when assigning a new storage array LUN:
1. Log in to the VSM server, right-click on the My Computer icon, and select Manage.
2. Click Device Manager. In the right pane, right-click Disk Drives, and select Scan for hardware
changes.
3. After the screen stops refreshing, open HP Command View SVSP and find the back-end LUs using
Back-end Storage > Storage Systems and click Refresh.
