Task 7: Associating LUNs and Initiators
A LUN represents a logical drive on the VTrak. An initiator represents a blade
server in the Modular Server. Each blade server uses LUN0 for booting and
storage. This task includes the following actions:
• Enabling LUN Masking (page 16)
• Adding an Initiator (page 16)
• Adding a LUN Map (page 17)
• Editing a LUN Map (page 17)
Enabling LUN Masking
LUN masking is the process of applying a LUN Map so that each initiator can
only access the LUNs specified for it. You only have to perform this action one
time.
To enable the LUN Masking:
1. Click the Subsystem icon in Tree View.
2. Click the Administrative Tools icon.
3. Click the Storage Services icon.
4. Click the LUN Map tab in Management View.
5. Click the LUN Masking Enabled box.
4. Click the Submit button.
Adding an Initiator
You must add an initiator to the VTrak's initiator list before you can associate the
initiator with a LUN. You must repeat this action for each initiator.
To add an initiator:
1. Click the Subsystem icon in Tree View.
2. Click the Administrative Tools icon.
3. Click the SAS Management icon.
4. In Management View, click the Initiators tab.
A list of all currently logged-in initiators appears the screen.
5. Check the box to the left of the initiator you want to add.
6. Click the Add to Initiator List button.
The initiator is added to VTrak’s list.
