Q
3.4.3
Connecting Hosts to the SAN
When setting up a high-availability configuration, you must make sure that each
host:
■ Includes installed and supported high-availability or multi-pathing software.
■ Is connected to both SANbox SSPs in the high-availability solution, and not
connected to any other SANbox SSPs.
To connect hosts to the SAN:
1. Connect one HBA port on each host to the switch labeled FC Switch A in the
configuration diagram in Figure 2-4, and add each of these ports to Zone
front_A.
2. Connect the other HBA port on each host to the switch labeled FC Switch B in
the configuration diagram, and add each of these ports to Zone front_B.
3. To access the SVM GUI, start a web browser and point to the IP address you
configured for the SVM appliance.
4. Use SVMAdministrator as the user name, and SVMAdministrator for the
password the first time you access the SVM GUI.
5. Configure a new password to use for the SVM GUI.

Managing your Configuration
See Section 5 Using the SANbox SSP for information about configuring storage,
zoning your SAN, and managing your SAN using the SVM GUI.
Use the SVM GUI to complete management tasks, such as creating storage pools,
virtual volumes, and user-defined hosts (UDH); and assigning a SCSI personality
to each UDH.
