Configuring the switch
Key configuration tasks include:
1.
Entering switch parameters. (Enabling or disabling Multi-initiator mode.)
2.
Creating zone groups.
Switch-port zone groups: For shared SAS storage enclosures (P2000 G3 SAS MSA)
and tape libraries.
Drive-bay zone groups: For zoned SAS storage enclosures (D6000, MDS600, and
D2600/D2700).
3.
Assigning zone groups to servers (c-Class enclosure device bays).
4.
Capturing the configuration for safekeeping. Hewlett Packard Enterprise strongly recommends
this step, especially in single-domain configurations.
The switch is configured using the 6G Virtual SAS Manager (VSM) application. For more
information on zoning and configuration tasks, see the 6G virtual SAS Manager user guide,
available on the 6Gb SAS BL Switch page of the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center
