Note
- The HBA address rename function is not available if ServerView Deployment Manager is used on the admin LAN. For details, refer
to "Appendix B Co-Existence with ServerView Deployment Manager" in the "Setup Guide VE".
- For servers which already have server switchover configured, when configuring or changing HBA address rename, the following
conditions must be met:
- Primary servers with HBA address rename configured
- Spare servers with the server switchover method HBA address rename configured
For any servers that do not meet these conditions, cancel any existing recovery settings before enabling the HBA address rename
function on a server.
- HBA address rename and VIOM cannot be used together within the same chassis.
- When using PRIMEQUEST, FC cards set with HBA address rename cannot use the PHP function.
Restarting of a server is required after replacing the FC card.
1. Storage Settings
Refer to "10.2Configuring the Storage Environment" in the "Design Guide CE"to configure the storage.
When altering the configuration of a storage device already used by active servers, ensure those servers are powered off before performing
any configuration changes.
2. Settings for the HBA address rename Function
1. On the ROR console server resource tree, right-click the target server (or the physical OS or VM host on the server), and select
[Modify]-[HBA Address Rename Settings] from the popup menu.
The [HBA Address Rename Settings] dialog is displayed.
2. Define the following settings:
WWNN
Specify the WWNN value provided by the "I/O virtualization Option".
The admin server generates WWPNs automatically from the values that are input into the WWNN and the number of HBA
ports.
HBA ports
Specify the following values according to the system configuration.
- To create a single-path configuration, specify "1".
For details, refer to "Figure 5.4 Procedures for Single-path Configurations".
- To create a multi-path configuration, specify "2".
However, it is necessary to specify "1" during installation of the operating system. Specify "2" and reconfigure HBA address
rename settings after setting up the multi-path driver.
For details, refer to "Figure 5.5 Procedures for Multi-path Configurations".
