7–10 CLI Commands
ADD DISK
Names a disk drive and adds it to the controller’s configuration.
NOTE: The controller supports a maximum of 72 storage devices, even though
more than 72 target IDs are available. Do not exceed the maximum number of
devices in the subsystem.
Syntax
ADD DISK container-name scsi-port-target-lun
Parameters
container-name
Assigns a name to the disk device. This is the name used with the ADD UNIT
command to create a single-disk unit.
The disk name must start with a letter (A through Z) and may consist of a maximum
of 9 characters including letters A through Z, numbers 0 through 9, periods (.), dashes
(-), or underscores (_).
IMPORTANT: It is common to name a disk drive DISK pttll , where pttll is the
disk’s Port-Target-LUN address. Although other naming conventions are
acceptable, this one presents the user with the type of disk drive and its SCSI
location.
scsi-port-target-lun
Indicates the SCSI device PTL address. Place one space between the port number,
target number, and the two-digit LUN number when entering the PTL address. See
“Mapping the Physical Devices with Device PTL Addressing,” page 3–6, for an
explanation of the PTL addressing naming format.
NOTE: See the
HSG80 Array Controller ACS V8.4 Release Notes to determine
whether the disk drive you are planning to use is compatible with the controller.
