Creating vdisks and adding a LUN presentation
Create the storage (vdisks) for your application data using the SSSU or the P6000 Command View
GUI, and then present the vdisks to the cluster nodes connected to that HP EVAarray.
NOTE: At a later time in this installation process, you can create a LUN presentation for your
remote destination vdisk and set the access mode property for the destination vdisk to read-only.
See “Setting read-only mode and adding a LUN presentation to the destination vdisk” (page 11).
For detailed instructions, see the HP P6000 Command View User Guide or the HP Storage System
Scripting Utility Reference.
