3.5.1 Matrix Server Administration Guide

Chapter 5: Configure the SAN 67

disk. The individual partitions are identified by the disk name followed

by p and the partition number, such as psd25p4.

To import disks using the Management Console, select Storage > Disk >

Import or click the Import icon on the toolbar. The Import Disks window,

which appears next, shows all SAN disks that are not currently imported

into the matrix. The disk descriptions include the vendor, the disk’s UID,

and its size. The Info column specifies the FC switch used to access the

disk. Select the disks that you want to import from this window.

To import a disk from the command line, use the following command:

mx disk import <uuid> ...

To determine the uuid for a disk, run the mx disk status command, which

prints the uuid, the size, and a vendor string for each unimported SAN

disk. In the following example,

20:00:00:04:cf:20:de:3b::0 is the

UUID.

# mx disk status
