4–32 Planning Storagesets
To create a storageset map:
1. Copy the template from Figure 4–11.
2. Establish a local or remote connection to one of the controllers in your
subsystem.
3. Show the devices that are assigned to the controller. Use the following command:
SHOW DEVICES
4. Locate each device assigned to the controller and record its location on your copy
of the cabinet template. Use the following command:
LOCATE device_name
The LOCATE command causes the device’s LED to flash continuously.
5. Turn off the LED, using the following command:
LOCATE CANCEL
The controller names each device based on its Port-Target-LUN (PTL) location.
See the next section for details about the controller’s PTL addressing convention.
Repeat step 2 through step 4 for each controller or dual-redundant pair of control-
lers.
6. After you have mapped the devices to your cabinet template, create the storageset
map by circling each group of disk drives that you want to combine into a
storageset or put into the spareset. Label each group with a storageset name, for
example: RAID1 for a RAIDset; Mirr1 for a mirrorset; and Stripe1 for a stripeset.
