5.4.5 Allocate Host-Affinity Group
On this screen, add or delete Host-Affinity Group related to the Host-Affinity function without
stopping
ETERNUS DX400/DX8000 series operations.
The Host-Affinity Group setting is used to associate the Host World Wide Name (WWN) or iSCSI
Host registered in the
ETERNUS DX400/DX8000 series with Affinity Groups. Only hosts that
have Host World Wide Name or iSCSI Host registered to the
ETERNUS DX400/DX8000 series
by the Host-Affinity Group setting can access specific Affinity Groups associated with the hosts.
Set Affinity Group only when hosts and the ETERNUS DX400/DX8000 series are connected via
FC-CA or iSCSI-CA.
The maximum numbers of WWNs, iSCSI Hosts, Affinity Groups, and Host-Affinity Group settings
which can be registered vary depending on each model. The following shows the number which
can be set for each model.
