Storage Service Processor Virtualization Engine Commands - Sun Microsystems StorEdge 3900 Series Reference And Service Manual

5.3.4 Storage Service Processor Virtualization Engine
Commands
The Sun StorEdge 6900 series configuration utilities discussed in this subsection can
change the configuration of the virtualization engine. The configuration utilities can
be accessed by the menu-driven interface or individually.
After the StorEdge 6900 series systems are powered on and tested, the default
settings of the virtualization engine can be changed to meet the SAN environment in
which the system is installed.
Some of these utilities use a VEPASSWD environment variable as the virtualization
engine password for telnet(1) session login. The commands that use the
VEPASSWD variable include checkve(1M), resetsandb(1M), resetve(1M),
setupve(1M), and restorevemap(1M). If this environment variable is not set,
these utilities try to log in without a password.
Note – If your passwords on the virtualization engines are null, do not set this
variable. Also, only use this variable if you use the same password for each
virtualization engine.
msp0# VEPASSWD=password
msp0# export VEPASSWD
If the environment variable is not set to the virtualization engine password, the
command fails.
The commands to configure the virtualization engine are described briefly here. For
a complete description of a command and its function, refer to the individual man(1)
pages.
addtovezone(1M)–Adds a VLUN or HBA to the virtualization engine name,
initiator, and zone names specified.
checkslicd(1M)–Verifies that the slicd daemon is running and communicating
with the virtualization engine
checkve(1M)–Checks the parameter settings of the virtualization engine. The
parameter settings include the Ethernet settings, host side settings, device side
settings, and SV management programs.
checkvemap(1M)–Verifies that the live configuration of the virtualization engine
matches the saved configuration for that virtualization engine.
