Exporting Test LUNs

As the final step in verifying the storage system installation, create two or three test LUNs and
confirm that the attached host or hosts can access them. After you have created the test LUNs and
verified that the host can access them, notify the system administrator that the storage system is
ready for use.
NOTE:
Before you can export test LUNs, you must determine the host Fibre Channel connection
types and set the appropriate port personas for all target ports, or ports that connect to host
computers. See the HP 3PAR Implementation Guides where appropriate.

Defining Hosts

In order to define hosts and set port personas, you must access the CLI. For more information about
the commands used in this section, see the HP 3PAR OS Command Line Interface Reference.
To set the personas for ports connecting to host computers:
1.
In the CLI, verify connection to a host before defining a host:
192.168.46.249 cli% showhost
2.
Define a new system host as follows:
192.168.46.249 cli% createhost -persona <hostpersonaval> <hostname> <WWN>...
where <hostpersonaval> is the host persona ID number, <hostname> is the name of the
test host, and <WWN> is the WWN of an HBA in the host machine. This HBA must be physically
connected to the storage system.
3.
After you have defined a system host for each physically connected WWN, verify host
configuration information for the storage system as follows:
192.168.46.249 cli% showhost
4.
Use the controlport command to set each target port as follows:
192.168.46.249 cli% controlport config <connmode> [-ct loop | point]
<node:slot:port>
where <connmode> is the name of the disk, host, or rcfc. The -ct subcommand sets the
connection type and is optional. Use loop for the disk; loop or point for the host; and
point for rcfc. The <node:slot:port> specifies the controller node, PCI slot, and PCI
adapter port to be controlled.
5.
When finished setting each connected target port, verify that all ports are set correctly.
192.168.46.249 cli% showport -par
