Fields
- Nickname
- Specifies the unique name that you or the system have assigned to the
volume group as an identifier. You can change the nickname, limited to 16
characters, as needed. This field must have an entry before you can proceed
with any processing.
- Accessed by host types
- Host Type
- Specifies the host type with the operating system. Because a volume group
can be assigned to multiple volumes, it is probable that many host types will
be displayed. This can occur because the volumes that are assigned to the
volume group are all the same block size and capacity.
- Block Size
- Specifies the volume block size.
- Addressing Method
- Specifies the behavior of the host port relative to how it identifies
the LUNs that are accessible by the host port, Map 256 or Mask.
