D.3.1 When Using ETERNUS Storage

This section explains how to configure ETERNUS storage.


ETERNUS Storage Configuration

Resource Orchestrator manages only ETERNUS registered on ESC. Register the target ETERNUS on ESC.

For details on how to register to ESC, refer to the "ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser User's Guide" of version 14.2 or later.

Note

  • Definition of ETERNUS hot spares, RAID groups, and TPP is not possible in Resource Orchestrator. Predefine hot spares, RAID groups, and TPP using ETERNUSmgr or other software.

  • Resource Orchestrator supports access path settings on the FC-CA ports of ETERNUS connected using Fabric connections. It is necessary to select "Fabric connection" in the settings of the connection method of ETERNUS FC-CA ports.

  • Resource Orchestrator uses ETERNUS host affinity to enable recognition of LUNs by servers. Therefore, for affinity mode settings of ETERNUS FC-CA ports, "ON" must be selected.


When Connecting ETERNUS Storage to Fibre Channel Switches

When creating a disk from an ETERNUS RAID group, configure one-to-one WWPN zoning for the Fibre Channel switch registered on ESC. Therefore, it is necessary to register the Fibre Channel switch connected to ETERNUS and all Fibre Channel switches connected to it using a cascade connection on ESC.

For details on how to register to ESC, refer to the "ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser User's Guide" of version 14.2 or later.

Zoning settings may not have been configured for Fibre Channel switches. When zoning is not configured, ensure that temporary zoning is configured, since there is a chance that one-to-one WWPN zoning settings cannot be configured. For details on how to perform configuration, refer to the ESC manual.


When Using iSCSI Boot

Define the following using ESC or ETERNUSmgr. Regarding the defined information, register a disk on a resource, using the operation command (rcxadm iscsictl) for iSCSI boot.

Note

If iSCSI boot information already registered is specified, the registered information continues to exist.

If the registered information is changed, delete the iSCSI boot information using the unregister subcommand, and then register the iSCSI boot information by using the register subcommand again.

The definition information registered using the operation command (rcxadm iscsictl) for iSCSI boot is as follows:

For details, refer to "2.4.2 iSCSI Boot Information" of the "Reference Guide (Resource Management) CE".

When using dynamic LUN mirroring

When using dynamic LUN mirroring, copying chassis is possible by coordinating with CCM.

When using this function, make settings so that copying between ETERNUS storage chassis is possible.

For details on the configuration method, refer to the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operator's Guide for Copy Control Module".
