Prerequisites
- For physical L-Servers, attachment and detachment of disks is only possible when using SAN boot.
- [Solaris Containers]
Attaching and detaching of disks is not possible from the ROR console.
However, it is possible from the global zone.
Attaching a Disk
Use the following procedure to attach a disk to an L-Server:
1. Right-click the target L-Server in the orchestration tree, and select [Change Settings]-[Attach Disk] from the popup menu.
The [Attach a New Disk] dialog is displayed.
2. Enter the following items:
Size
Enter the disk size of the additional disk as a number with up to one decimal place, in units of gigabytes. "10" is initially displayed.
Resource type
Specify the disk to allocate to the L-Server.
Select from the following items.
- Automatic assignment
Select the appropriate resources, and allocate storage pools and virtual storage resources or disk resources to the L-Server.
Set "Automatic" for the default value.
Note
When there are storage pools with and without Thin Provisioning attributes configured that have the same priority, the
storage pool that will be given priority is decided based on definition files.
For details on definition files, refer to "C.1 Definition Files Commonly Shared when Creating Virtual L-Servers" in the
"Setup Guide CE".
If dynamic LUN mirroring has been set in the virtual storage, a volume is also created on the ETERNUS storage in the
remote site specified in the definition file.
If the ETERNUS storage in the remote site has been detected by Resource Orchestrator, it will be detected as a disk resource
that was prepared beforehand, but do not register it to the storage pool.
- Storage pool
Select the appropriate resources, and allocate storage pools to the L-Server.
- Virtual storage
Displays virtual storage resources such as RAID groups or aggregates as a list.
Select from the displayed virtual storage resources.
Create the specified size of disk resources from the specified virtual storage resource, and allocate them to the L-Server.
When using the virtual storage resource on which the Thin Provisioning attributes are configured, the disk resource can be
created specifying a size exceeding the actual disk space.
- Disk
Assign a LUN created in advance, or the automatically created disk resources, for allocation to the L-Server.
When specifying search conditions, the relevant disk resource list is displayed.
Select from the displayed disk resources.
The specified disk resources are allocated to the L-Server.
