Chapter 3: Setting Up HP StorageWorks Clustered File System 17
HP SecurePath
The HP SecurePath product is not included as part of HP HP Clustered
File System. HP recommends the use of the newer MPIO DSM software.
However, SecurePath software is known to work and is supported.
The HP Clustered File System allow_any_disk and
no_permanent_mountpoints parameters must be set manually on
each server. These parameters are located in the scl.conf file, which by
default is located at C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Clustered
File System\ conf\scl.conf.
To set the allow_any_disk parameter, locate these lines in the scl.conf
file:
# allow_any_disk
#Perform no checking to ensure that paths to disks go through
#the managed SAN. Set to 1 to enable, 0 to disable.
#(default behavior is "disabled").
#
#(This parameter should not be set except in very specific cases!)
#
#allow_any_disk 0
On the last line, remove the # sign preceding allow_any_disk and
change the value to 1:
allow_any_disk 1
To set no_permanent_mountpoints, locate these lines in the scl.conf
file:
# no_permanent_mountpoints
#(This parameter is only for Windows; it has no affect on Linux)
#Indicates whether scl utilities will create 'permanent' mountpoints
#for all imported device partitions. (They are permanent in that
#they will persist until the disk is deported).
#
#Note that on W2K3 Enterprise, by default, devices cannot be
#accessed without either a driveletter assignment or a mountpoint
#assignment. Hence turning on 'no_permanent_mountpoints' may prevent
#MatrixServer from operating properly.
