external LU as an internal XP LDEV, select an external LU with (N/A) in the CU:LDEV list. To map all
external LUs in the CU:LDEV list at one time, use the Linear button.
Interval
If you select two or more volumes in the CU:LDEV list or click Linear for mapping, you can select the
interval that arranges each volume. Values can be from 0 to 255. Default is 0.
For example, if you select three volumes in the CU:LEDV list, set Interval to 255, and map the first
volume to CU:LDEV number 00:01, the second and third volumes are mapped to 01:01 and 02:01,
respectively.
LDEV map
Each cell in the map represents an internal XP LDEV. Select a cell for the internal XP LDEV on the map.
The selected cell turns blue, and the selected LDEV is mapped to the external LU. Internal XP LDEVs that
have been mapped appear in gray, and those not yet mapped appear in white.
Previous and Next buttons
If you select multiple external LUs in the Device list, click Previous to map the external LU in the row just
above the currently selected external LU. Click Next to map the external LU in the row just below the
currently selected external LU.
OK button
Displays the SSID window, where you can continue with the next step of the mapping operation. If the
SSID setting is not necessary, the Add LU window closes, and the LU Operation pane appears.
The OK button is available when mapping on the Add LU window is complete.
Cancel button
Cancels all mapping operations, closes the Add LU window, and returns to the LU Operation pane.

Select Paths pane

All paths that can be set as primary and alternate paths appear in the Select Paths pane. To set a specific
path as the alternate path, use the Select Paths pane to specify candidates for the alternate paths.
If you let alternate paths be automatically set with all connected normal paths as candidates, you can omit
the setting operation on the Select Paths pane.

you set in Alternate Path in the Add LU pane cannot be set with the paths selected in Selected Paths, an
error occurs and appears in the Preset list.
