Overview of CLI storage configuration procedures
When using the CLI to initially configure the MSA controller and its storage, use the following sequence:
1. Create the LUNs.
See ”LUN-related commands” on page 25 for command descriptions.
NOTE: OpenVMS environments must assign a unique ID number to each LUN. See ”Assigning a
name or ID to a LUN” on page 28 for instructions.
2. Enter array controller settings, including global parameters.
See ”Global commands” on page 35 for command descriptions.
NOTE: OpenVMS environments must assign a unique ID number to each array controller. See
”Setting the controller ID” on page 36 for instructions.
3. Enter connection information about the HBAs with access to the MSA.
See ”Host connection commands” on page 40 for command descriptions.
NOTE: Each host accessing the storage must identify its operating system (profile type.) See
”Changing the profile of a connection” on page 41 for instructions.
4. (Optional) Limit access to the storage.
See ”Access Control List commands” on page 43 for command descriptions.
