X If VLUNs have been exported to the host, issue the removehost -rvl <host_name>

command. For information about exporting VLUNs, see 7.7 Exporting Virtual Volumes on

page 7.7.

5.6 Hosts and Domains

If you are using 3PAR Virtual Domains, you can create and modify domain-specific Fiber

Channel or iSCSI hosts. In many instances, you will follow the same process for creating and

modifying hosts just as you would for hosts that do not use Domains.

5.6.1 Creating a Domain-Specific Host

In order to create a domain-specific host, you must be a super or edit level user in the all

domain. Refer to the InForm OS Concepts Guide and the

createhost command in the InForm

OS Command Line Interface Reference for details about this restriction.

X To create a domain-specific host, issue the createhost command as described in 5.2.1

Creating a Host with a Fiber Channel Path and 5.2.2 Creating a Host with an iSCSI Path with

the optional

-domain <domain_name> argument to specify the domain in which you are

creating the host.

5.6.2 Modifying a Domain-Specific Host

Perform modifications to domain-specific hosts using the createhost and sethost

commands as previously discussed in 5.4 Modifying a Host on page 5.5.

Any existing domain-specific host can be modified as follows:

 By changing the host’s name. See 5.4.1 Changing a Host Name on page 5.5 for instructions.

You must be a super or edit level user in the

all domain or an edit level user in a

specified domain in order to perform this operation (refer to the InForm OS Concepts

Guide for details about this restriction).

 By adding or removing WWNs or iSCSI names. This operation is restricted to super or edit

level user in the

all domain (refer to the InForm OS Concepts Guide for details about this

restriction). See the following for instructions:
