Compaq StorageWorks HSG60 ACS Solution V8.6 for SGI IRIX Installation and Configuration Guide
3–4 HSG60 ACS Solution Software Version 8.6 for SGI Irix Installation and Configuration Guide
Once the StorageWorks software has been installed, logical units may be created on the
RAID Array and configured into the system. These logical units can be created using the
SWCC Client or the CLI. In order to utilize Client to create logical units, Agent must first
be installed on the host SGI system. Details on Agent are in Chapter 4 and details on
Client are in Appendix B.Once the Agent and Client have been installed, the following
sections will guide you through the remaining steps in the configuration and initialization
process.
Host Device Initialization
New logical units created on the RAID Array with SWCC or the CLI must be initialized
and partitioned before they can be used by the host operating system. Once the logical unit
has been created, the system must be restarted for the logical unit to be recognized by the
operating system. The following steps outline the process.
1. Using the CLI or the SWCC Client, create the logical units on the RAID Array.
2. Restart Irix according to the established local system administration procedures.
3. Once the bootstrap process has completed, log in to the system as the superuser (root).
4. Verify that the host has located and configured the new RAID Array devices into the
operating system with the command:
# hinv -v
The output of this command should show the logical units that were created on the RAID
Array. In the following portion of the command output, an HSG60 with logical units at
IDs 1,2,3,4,5 are connected to controller 10 of an XIO Arbitrated Loop Fibre Channel host
adapter. In this example, the first disk drive, unit 64, logical unit 0, is the Command
Console LUN (CCL).
