Creating and managing partitions

SAN Connection Manager can automatically initialize and create a partition on a newly-created LUN. Or,

you can use the Create & Manage Partitions dialog box to manually create and manage partitions within

your SAN. For detailed procedures, refer to the following sections:

• “Automatically creating a partition on a new LUN,” page 105

• “Manually creating a partition,” page 106

• “Managing a partition,” page 110

NOTE: SAN Connection Manager can create and manage partitions only on Windows servers using

QLogic-based HBAs.

Automatically creating a partition on a new LUN

For a newly-created logical disk, SAN Connection Manager provides the option to automatically initialize

the LUN, create a single partition for the whole LUN, assign the next available drive letter, and format the

partition with NTFS.

To automatically initialize, partition, and format a new LUN:

1. Add a logical disk using the Create New Logical Disk wizard; see “Creating a logical disk—EVA

storage,” page 84 or “Creating a logical disk—MSA storage,” page 88.

The Create and Format Partitions From New/Existing Logical Disk dialog box opens (Figure 73).

2. Select one or more newly-created logical disks by selecting the check box next to the LUN Name. To

select all listed LUNs, select the Select All check box.

3. Click Create Partition for selected Logical Disk(s).The following message box opens; see Figure 74.
