• To assign a user-defined LUN ID to exported LUNs, select the Value
option button and enter a value in the space. User-defined LUN IDs may
make it easier differentiate between LUNs. If you do assign user-defined
LUN ID, HP recommends that you specify a number below 255 as some
operating systems (for example, Windows) will only discover LUN IDs
between 0 and 254.
• To automatically assign an ID to the exported LUNs, select the Auto
option button.

Initiator Management
In a vSHARE HP VMA SAN Gateway environment, the I/O ports on the hosts (for
example, database servers or application servers) that access LUNs called initiators
and the FC ports on HP VMA SAN Gateways themselves are called as targets .
The Initiator Management page enables you to define initiator groups and add or
remove initiators to those groups.
vSHARE enables you to control access to LUNs on an initiator-by-initiator basis
or by defining initiator groups (igroups).
Adding or Deleting Initiator Groups
To add an initiator group:
1. Select vSHARE > Manage Initiators in the VMA Web Interface.
The Initiator Management page appears.
2. Click the Add igroup button in the Initiator Groups table.
