Page 9: Chapter 3 Notes
For IP network security, separate the iSCSI LAN from the management LAN (for administration). • The iSCSI LAN must be configured as a dedicated LAN for each path from a server to the ETERNUS DX. • FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS DX Configuration Guide -Server Connection- (iSCSI) for HP-UX... - Page 10 *2: A separate LAN segment is provided in the LAN switch (using the switch VLAN function) for each group- ing of business servers and storage systems (equivalent to the FC zones).

Page 12: Lvm Notes
Before turning the server on, check that the ETERNUS DX storage systems and LAN switches are all "Ready". If the server is turned on and they are not "Ready", the server will not be able to recognize the ETERNUS DX storage systems. -
Page 13: Chapter 4 Checking The Server Information
Chapter 4 Checking the Server Information The server information registered in the ETERNUS DX should be checked. A variety of commands are used to check the following server information. iSCSI initiator name • Execute the following command: iscsiutil -l The iSCSI initiator name is displayed in the "Initiator Name" column. -
Page 14: Chapter 5 Setting Up The Eternus Dx
Setting Up the ETERNUS DX Set up the ETERNUS DX storage systems using ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUSmgr. ETERNUS DX setup can be performed independently of server setup. For details on how to perform these set- tings, refer to the following manuals. -
Page 15: Chapter 6 Installing The Iscsi Software Initiator And Setting Up The Server
The "iSCSI Software Initiator" package is downloaded. In the "Document" field, click the "Installation Instructions" link. Install the iSCSI Software Initiator according to the displayed installation procedure. FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS DX Configuration Guide -Server Connection- (iSCSI) for HP-UX Copyright 2014 FUJITSU LIMITED P3AM-3402-14ENZ0... -
Page 16: Setting Up The Server
Set the number of commands allowed to be queued (command queue depth) on each LUN in the ETERNUS DX storage systems from the LAN card. This setting optimizes the connection between the ETERNUS DX stor- age systems and the server. -
Page 17: Maximum Number Of Volume Group Settings
Name (iqn) or IEEE EUI-64 (eui) format may be used. To set the iSCSI Initiator name, execute the "iscsiutil" command as follows: # iscsiutil [iscsi-device-file] -i -N <initiator-name> FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS DX Configuration Guide -Server Connection- (iSCSI) for HP-UX Copyright 2014 FUJITSU LIMITED P3AM-3402-14ENZ0... - Page 18 # iscsiutil -t authmethod CHAP None The above command sets CHAP authentication to operate according to the ETERNUS DX setting. The CHAP authentication method is selected if the ETERNUS DX uses CHAP for its responses, otherwise CHAP authentication is not performed.

Page 19: Server Settings When Chap Authentication Is Used
6.2.4 Server Settings when CHAP Authentication is Used To use CHAP authentication, the following items must be set for the iSCSI ports of the ETERNUS DX and for the iSCSI Initiators. When setting the iSCSI port parameters for the ETERNUS DX, specify the "-I" option and input the IP address. -
Page 20: Server Settings When Bidirectional Chap Authentication Is Used
Specify the IP address or hostname of the Network Access Server (NAS). This is the server that is to connect to the ETERNUS DX via the iSCSI interface. The specified IP address or hostname must be for a LAN card that is able to com- municate with the RADIUS server. - Page 21 Installing the iSCSI Software Initiator and Setting Up the Server Setting Up the Server The iradd daemon will automatically restart every time the system is started.

Page 22: Chapter 7 Checking Connections
To turn on the connected devices, use the following procedure: Turn on any devices (such as LAN switches) on the LAN path between the ETERNUS DX and server. After checking that the Ready (or equivalent) LED of the LAN switch is lit, turn on the ETERNUS DX storage systems. - Page 23 FUJITSU ETERNUS_DXL When the ETERNUS DX storage systems are connected for the first time, the device file (for exam- ple, /dev/dsk/c4t0d0) sometimes may not be created. If this happens, use the "insf" command to create the device file. Specify the hardware path name as follows, and execute.
-
Page 24: Chapter 8 Setting The Multipaths
Confirm that the PV-Links paths have identical target IDs. • When set correctly, the device files for all paths that connect to a given ETERNUS DX LUN should all be the same after the "t" part of the name (e.g. "/dev/dsk/c4t0d0" g"0d0"). -
