HP XP P9000 Configuration Guide (AV400-96525, November 2012)

Configuring disk array devices
Configure the disk array devices in the same way you would configure any new disk on the host
server. Creating scripts to configure all devices at once could save you considerable time.
Initializing and labeling the devices
Use the initialize command to format each disk array volume and write an identifying label
on it:
Example
$ init $1$dga100 testxp
Mounting the devices
Use the mount command to mount and identify each disk array volume:
Example
$ mount $1$dga100 testxp
Verifying file system operation
1. Use the show device d command to list the devices:
Example
$ show device dg
NOTE: Use the show device/full dga100 command to show the path information for
the device:
Example:
$ show device/full $1$dga100:
Disk $1$DGA100: (NODE01), device type HP OPEN-V, is online, file-oriented
device, shareable, device has multiple I/O paths, served to cluster via MSCP

This command creates a user directory name USER at the top level of the newly added volume
$1$DGA100.
3. Change to the new directory:
Example
$ set default
$1$dga100:[user]
