Create Host

This command creates a new host.
NOTE:
A host is a system that is attached to the storage array and accesses the
virtual disks on the storage array through its HBA host ports. You can define
specific virtual disk-to-logical unit number (LUN) mappings to an individual host or
assign the host to a host group that shares access to one or more virtual disks.
Syntax

" hostGroupName "]

Script Commands
Description
Name to give the host that you are
creating. You must put quotation marks
(" ") around the host name.
Name of the host group in which to create
a new host. You must put quotation
marks (" ") around the host group name.
(If a host group does not exist, you can
create a new host group by using the
create hostGroup command.)
NOTE:
A host group is an optional
topological element defined to designate a
collection of hosts that share access to the
same virtual disks. The host group is a
logical entity. Define a host group only if you
have two or more hosts that share access to
the same virtual disks. If you do not specify a
host group in which to place the host you are
creating, the newly defined host belongs to
the default host group.
