Server Connection Commands
For a server to access the storage of the MSA1000, you must first establish a
connection that identifies the specific HBA to the MSA1000.
After connections are entered, you may need to restrict access to LUNs to specific
servers. Some programs, including the Array Configuration Utility (ACU), use
the phrase Selective Storage Presentation (SSP) when discussing storage
limitations. The CLI uses an Access Control List (ACL) to enter the list of LUNs
a server can access. See the following section “Selective Storage
Presentation/Access Control List Commands” for more information about SSP
and ACLs.
Each of the following commands is used to enter and manage the connections:
■ Viewing Existing Connections and the HBA World Wide Name
■ Naming a Connection to a server
■ Managing Connection Profiles
