HP MPX200 Data Migration Planning Guide

1. Create a host entity for router ports on the array. This step is needed to map the LUNs to the
routers.
a. In the 3PAR Inform Management Console, select Hosts in the left pane, and click Create
Host.
b. On the Create Host wizard, General page (see Figure 8 (page 26)), enter a Name for
the host, and in the Persona box, select the appropriate operating system as the host
type. Click Next to continue.

c. On the Create Host wizard, FC page (see Figure 9 (page 26)), select all VP ports under
Available WWNs, and click the left arrow to move them to the Assigned WWNs column.
Ensure that you create a single host entity for all WWPNs from a single VPG. For example,
all VP1 ports from the router’s FC ports must be part of one host entity. Create a separate
host for VP2, VP3, and VP4, and click Finish to create the hosts.
