When integrating with ESC, it should be configured first. Register the Fibre Channel switches and storage units connected to primary servers and managed servers on ESC.
Note
When integrating with ESC, do not register servers used as spare server for Resource Coordinator VE on ESC.
After registration, collect WWNs of HBAs set on physical servers or WWNs of CAs set on storage units.
From the client window of ESC, collect the WWNs for HBAs contained in the registered servers.
For servers which are not registered on ESC, collect WWNs from the seal driver utilities provided with HBA cards.
Refer to the storage device manual of each storage device for details.
From the client window of ESC, collect the WWNs for HBAs contained in the registered storage.
Refer to the storage device manual of each storage device for details.
Collected WWNs are reflected in the relationship between physical servers and HBA WWNs from the perspective of the server, and in the relationship between the storage CA and WWNs from the perspective of storage devices.
System configuration requires that the relationship between HBA WWNs, storage CA WWNs, and volumes from the perspective of storage devices be defined clearly.
When using a multi-path configuration, design the values to match the order of HBAs configured as primary servers or spare servers with those of the corresponding CAs.
Information
For integration with ESC, Resource Coordinator VE supports configurations where managed servers have up to eight HBA ports mounted.
