LUN Manager operations

The VSP G200, G400, G600, G800 or VSP F400, F600, F800 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 your storage system, use LUN Manager to configure logical volumes and ports.

One of the most 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 may need to modify the system configuration. For example, if hosts or disks are added, 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 after modifying the system configuration.
