Configuration Procedures
This chapter describes procedures to configure a subsystem that uses Fibre Channel fabric
topology. In fabric topology, the controller connects to its hosts through switches.
The following information is included in this chapter:
■ “Establishing a Local Connection,” page 5–2
■ “Setting Up a Single Controller,” page 5–3
■ “Setting Up a Controller Pair,” page 5–9
■ “Configuring Devices,” page 5–14
■ “Configuring a Stripeset,” page 5–15
■ “Configuring a Mirrorset,” page 5–15
■ “Configuring a RAIDset,” page 5–16
■ “Configuring a Striped Mirrorset,” page 5–17
■ “Configuring a Single-Disk (JBOD) Unit,” page 5–17
■ “Configuring a Partition,” page 5–18
■ “Assigning Unit Numbers and Unit Qualifiers,” page 5–19
■ “Configuration Options,” page 5–20
Use the command line interpreter (CLI) or StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC)
to configurea subsystem. This chapter uses CLI, which is the low-level interface to the
controller. If you want to use SWCC for configuration, see the SWCC online help for
assistance.
The configuration procedures assume that controllers and cache modules are installed
in a fully functional and populated enclosure and that the PCMCIA cards are installed.
