Register ETERNUS disk storage systems with AdvancedCopy Manager CCM as the devices to be used for copies.
Use "A.2.1 acarray add (ETERNUS disk storage systems registration command)" to register the ETERNUS disk storage systems.
The following ETERNUS disk storage systems information is required for registration.
ETERNUS disk storage systems name (hereafter called "ETERNUS name")
Future operations can be executed with the ETERNUS name.
In the case of REC, both copy source and copy destination ETERNUS names are required.
ETERNUS disk storage systems IP address
The following user name and password
When using ETERNUS DX80 S2/DX90 S2, ETERNUS DX410 S2/DX440 S2:
The user name with Software role for target storage device and password
When using other ETERNUS disk storage systems:
The user name with Administrator authorization for target storage device and password
Access path set according to "2.2.4 Access Path Settings".
This setup can be omitted except for Linux 5 for Intel Itanium.
Point
For omitting access path setup
To set the access path automatically, execute A.2.1 acarray add (ETERNUS disk storage systems registration command) without -path option.
Follow these steps to find the ETERNUS disk storage system.
[For Windows]
The order of "PhysicalDrive [disk number]" displayed in Disk Management.
The disk number is the same value as the "disk?" in the AdvancedCopy Manager block device name and the "Disk #" displayed in the [Disk Management] - [Computer Management] - [Management Tool] from the [Start] menu.
[For Solaris]
OS standard device (/dev/rdsk/*)
ETERNUS multi path device (/dev/FJSVmplb/rdsk/*)
VxVM(/dev/vx/rdmp/*)
[For Linux]
OS standard device (/dev/sd*)
by-id format for udev (/dev/disk/by-id/*)
by-path format for udev (/dev/disk/by-path/*)
Even if the access path is invalid because of changing device information, you can change the access path easily by "A.2.5 acarray pathscan (Access path automatic setting command) [Excluding Linux 5 for Intel Itanium]".
Finding valid access path may take a few minutes.
For Windows, Solaris, Linux 5 (for x86, for Intel64), when using when using REC for the ETERNUS disk storage systems which is not connected with SAN environment, these ETERNUS disk storage systems must be registered by the method of non-authentication with them. The following ETERNUS disk storage systems information is required for registration.
ETERNUS disk storage systems name (hereafter called "ETERNUS name")
ETERNUS disk storage systems BOX-ID
Point
Note for REC
Both ETERNUS disk storage systems of the copy source and the copy destination must be registered.
Perform the following procedure on the CCM server.
Register the one of ETERNUS disk storage systems.
From two ETERNUS disk storage systems, register the ETERNUS disk storage systems that have the access path set by "2.2.4 Access Path Settings". When both ETERNUS disk storage systems have the access path, register either one.
Specify the existing drive letter or device name in the access path.
Register another one of ETERNUS disk storage systems.
From two ETERNUS disk storage systems, register another one that is different from the ETERNUS disk storage system registered by step 1.
When its ETERNUS disk storage system has the access path:
Specify the existing drive letter or device name in the access path as well as step 1.
When its ETERNUS disk storage system does not have the access path:
For Windows, Solaris, Linux 5 (for x86, for Intel64)
Register it by executing the "A.2.1 acarray add (ETERNUS disk storage systems registration command)" command with -boxid option. It cannot be registered by specifying nonexistent drive letter as an access path.
For Linux 5 for Intel Itanium
Specify any device name as an access path. Nonexistent drive name is also allowed.
Create copy groups by referring the "2.2.7 Creating copy groups".
Specify the ETERNUS name of step 1 in the "-a" option.
Specify the ETERNUS name of step 2 in the "-remote" option.
Execution examples are shown below.
Register the ETERNUS disk storage systems.
> acarray add -a E4000 -ip 10.124.6.251 -path c: -user root -password root Successful completion. |
To check whether the ETERNUS disk storage systems has been registered, use "A.2.3 acarray list (ETERNUS disk storage systems information display command)".
> acarray list Name BOX-ID IP Address ----- ---------------------------------------- ------------ E4000 00E4000M3#####E450S20A####KD4030639004## 10.124.6.251 |
Register the remote ETERNUS disk storage systems.
For Windows, Solaris, Linux 5 (for x86, for Intel64), execute "A.2.1 acarray add (ETERNUS disk storage systems registration command)" command with -boxid option.
> acarray add -a E4000 -boxid 00E4000M3#####E450S20A####KD4030639004## -remote Successful completion.
To check whether the ETERNUS disk storage systems has been registered, use "A.2.3 acarray list (ETERNUS disk storage systems information display command)". The -remote option can be only used in Windows, Solaris, Linux 5 (for x86, for Intel64).
> acarray list -remote Name BOX-ID ----- ---------------------------------------- E4000 00E4000M3#####E450S20A####KD4030639004## E8000 00E8000M9#####E890S20A####KO4070639003##
