HP MPX200 Data Migration Planning Guide
B Assigning LUNs to the MPX200 for data migration
For successful completion of data migration, assign source and destination LUNs to the MPX200
using storage array management tools. The MPX200 appears as a host to the array controller.
When you register the MPX200 port WWNs, you must set the correct attributes. Ensure that you
register all WWNs belonging to a specific VP group under a single host entity.
NOTE: For online migration for an HP-UX host, ensure that the host platform and node setting
for the MPX200 are exactly the same as the HP-UX host settings in the respective array management
software.
This appendix provides procedures for using some of the array management tools to assign LUNs
from vendors.

To assign LUNs:
1. Perform zoning:
a. Connect the FC ports of the data migration appliance to a switch where the storage
controller ports are also logged.
b. Use switch management tools to create a zone DM_Host_MSA2012. Add to the WWPN
of the data migration appliance FC ports and storage controller ports in this zone.
c. Save the zoning information and activate the new zoning configuration.
2. Use IE to open the Storage Management Utility by entering the IP address assigned to the
storage controller.
3. In the left pane, click Manage to open the management menu (see Figure 1 (page 21)).
