file /dev/cport/ *
Your host computer should report one CCL device special file for each HSG80
configured.
Configuring Devices
The disks on the device bus of the HSG80 can be configured manually or with the
CONFIG utility. The CONFIG utility is easier. Invoke CONFIG with the
following command:
RUN CONFIG
WARNING: It is highly recommended to use the CONFIG utility only at
reduced I/O loads.
CONFIG takes about two minutes to discover and to map the configuration of a
completely populated storage system.
Configuring Storage Containers
For a technology refresher on this subject, refer to “Choosing a Container Type
on page 72.
In choosing a container, you choose between independent disks (JBODs) or one of
several storageset types, as shown in Figure 39. The independent disks and the
selected storageset may also be partitioned.
The following configurations are detailed in the following sections:
Configuring a Stripeset, page 164
