HSG80 ACS Solution Software V8.6 for IBM AIM Installation and Configuration Guide

Configuration Procedures 5–17
Configuring a Stripeset
1. Create the stripeset by adding its name to the controller's list of storagesets and by
specifying the disk drives it contains. Use the following syntax:
ADD STRIPESET STRIPESET-NAME DISKNNNNN DISKNNNNN.......
2. Initialize the stripeset, specifying any desired switches:
INITIALIZE STRIPESET-NAME SWITCHES
See “Initialization Switches” on page 2–25 for a description of the initialization
switches.
3. Verify the stripeset configuration:
SHOW STRIPESET-NAME
4. Assign the stripeset a unit number to make it accessible by the hosts. See “Assigning
Unit Numbers and Unit Qualifiers” on page 5–21.
For example:
The commands to create Stripe1, a stripeset consisting of three disks (DISK10000,
DISK20000, and DISK10100) and having a chunksize of 128:
ADD STRIPESET STRIPE1 DISK10000 DISK20000 DISK10100
INITIALIZE STRIPE1 CHUNKSIZE=128
SHOW STRIPE1
Configuring a Mirrorset
1. Create the mirrorset by adding its name to the controller's list of storagesets and by
specifying the disk drives it contains. Optionally, you can append mirrorset switch
values:
ADD MIRRORSET MIRRORSET-NAME DISKNNNNN DISKNNNNN SWITCHES
NOTE: See the ADD MIRRORSET command in the Compaq StorageWorks HSG80 Array
Controller ACS Version 8.6 CLI Reference Guide for a description of the mirrorset switches.
2. Initialize the mirrorset, specifying any desired switches:
INITIALIZE MIRRORSET-NAME SWITCHES
See “Initialization Switches” on page 2–25 for a description of the initialization
switches.
3. Verify the mirrorset configuration:
SHOW MIRRORSET-NAME
