Host Information; Setting Up A Controller Pair Using The Ocp; Entering The Wwn; Push Button Functions - HP StorageWorks 6100 - Enterprise Virtual Array User Manual

Host information

Make a list of information for each host computer that will be accessing the storage system. You will
need the following information for each host:
• The LAN name of the host
• A list of World Wide Names of the FC adapters, also called host bus adapters, through which
the host will connect to the fabric that provides access to the storage system, or to the storage
system directly if using direct connect.
• Operating system type
• Available LUN numbers

Setting up a controller pair using the OCP

NOTE:
This procedure should be performed by an HP authorized service representative.
Two pieces of data must be entered during initial setup using the controller OCP:
• World Wide Name (WWN) — Required to complete setup. This procedure should be performed
by an HP authorized service representative.
• Storage system password — Optional. A password provides security allowing only specific instances
of HP Command View EVA to access the storage system.
The OCP on either controller can be used to input the WWN and password data. For more information
about the OCP, see
Table 2 lists the push-button functions when entering the WWN, WWN checksum, and password
data.

Entering the WWN

Fibre Channel protocol requires that each controller pair have a unique WWN. This 16-character
alphanumeric name identifies the controller pair on the storage system. Two WWN labels attached
to the rack identify the storage system WWN and checksum. See
"Operator Control Panel" on page 82.
