Troubleshooting 210
Encountering errors when
performing LUN management
on HDS 9980 V systems.
The host domains on this HDS 9980 V must be
reconfigured using the native software before can
manage the LUNs. The same LUN or host port is
included in two host domains on the same port.
• The HDS 9980 V, in conjunction with HiCommand
Server 2.4, supports a new feature, which is not yet
supported in 4.2.
• This new feature allows you to create multiple host
domains on the same storage port, which include
the same LUNs or host ports.
• 4.2 only supports the previous HDS V series
configuration rules.
• For each storage port, any given LUN can only be a
member of a single host storage domain. For each
storage port, any given host port can only be a
member of a single host storage domain.
• To manage your 9980 V LUNs with 4.2, any
preexisting host domains that do not conform to
these two rules, must be reconfigured or removed
using the HiCommand Server 2.4 or greater.
• When the rules are met, 4.2 will discover all the
host domains and allow you to configure them.
• If rules 1 & 2 are not met, 4.2 can discover all the
LUNs, and their host assignments.
• The data displayed in the LUNs and Hosts tables
will be correct.
• The Troubleshoot tab can be used to diagnose the
connectivity between LUNs and host ports.
• The host domain data will be incomplete. Therefore,
the dialog will be in a browse only mode.
• No actions can be taken on a HDS 9980 V that has
been configured in this way until its host storage
domains are reconfigured to meet rules 1 and 2
above.
