LUN Manager operations

The VSP G100, G200, G400, G600, G800 storage system can be connected to open-system server hosts of different platforms (for example, UNIX servers and PC servers). To configure a system that includes open-system hosts and the VSP G100, G200, G400, G600, G800 storage system, use LUN Manager to configure logical volumes and ports.

One of the important tasks when configuring logical volumes is to define I/O paths from hosts to logical volumes. When paths are defined, the hosts can send commands and data to the logical volumes and also can receive data from the logical volumes.

After the system begins operating, you might need to modify the system configuration. For example, if hosts or disks are added, you will need to add new I/O paths. You can modify the system configuration with LUN Manager when the system is running. You do not need to restart the system when modifying the system configuration.
