Deleting Snap Pools; Adding A Host; Removing Hosts - HP P2000 Reference Manual

Deleting snap pools

Before you can delete a snap pool you must delete any associated snapshots, and either delete the
associated master volume or convert the master volume to a standard volume.
To delete snap pools
1. Verify that no master volume or snapshots are associated with the snap pool.
2. In the Configuration View panel, either:
• Right-click the local system or Vdisks or a vdisk and select Provisioning > Delete Snap Pools.
• Right-click a snap pool and select Provisioning > Delete Snap Pool.
3. In the main panel, select the snap pools to delete.
4. Click Delete Snap Pool(s).
5. Click Delete to continue; otherwise, click Cancel. If you clicked Delete, a processing dialog appears. If
the task succeeds, an overview panel and a success dialog appear.
6. Click OK. As processing completes, the deleted items are removed from the Configuration View panel.

Adding a host

To add a host
1. Determine the host's WWPN or IQN.
In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system or Hosts and then select Provisioning > Add Host.
2.
3. In the main panel set the options:
• Host ID (WWN/IQN). Enter the host's WWPN or IQN. A WWPN value can include a colon
between each pair of digits but the colons will be discarded.
• Host Name. Optionally change the default name to one that helps you easily identify the host; for
example, FileServer_1. A host name is case sensitive; cannot already exist in the system; cannot
include a comma, double quote, or backslash; and can have a maximum of 15 bytes.
• Profile. Select the appropriate option that specifies whether the host allows use of LUN 0 for
mappings:
• Standard: LUN 0 can be assigned to a mapping. This is the default.
• HP-UX: LUN 0 can be assigned to a mapping and the host uses Flat Space Addressing.
• OpenVMS: LUN 0 cannot be assigned to a mapping.
4. Click Add Host. If the task succeeds, the new host appears in the Configuration View panel.

Removing hosts

To remove hosts
1. Verify that the hosts you want to remove are not accessing volumes.

• Right-click the system or Hosts and then select Provisioning > Remove Hosts.
• Right-click a host and select Provisioning > Remove Host.
3. In the main panel, select the hosts to remove. To select or clear all items, toggle the checkbox in the
heading row.

5. Click Remove to continue; otherwise, click Cancel. If you clicked Remove, a processing dialog appears.
If the task succeeds, an overview panel and a success dialog appear.
