Creating and presenting virtual disks

When creating and presenting virtual disks to an IBM AIX host, be sure to:
1. Set the OS unit ID to 0.
2. Set Preferred path/mode to No Preference.
3. Select a LUN number if you chose a specific LUN on the Virtual Disk Properties window.

Verifying virtual disks from the host

To scan the IBM AIX bus and list all EVA devices, enter: cfgmgr -v
The -v switch (verbose output) requests a full output.
Output similar to the following is displayed:
hdisk1 Available 1V-08-01
hdisk2 Available 1V-08-01
hdisk3 Available 1V-08-01
