Syntax
create mapping cgSnapVirtualDisk="snapVirtualDiskName" (host="hostName" |
hostGroup=("hostGroupName" | defaultGroup))
Parameters
Parameter Description
cgSnapVirtualDisk
The name of the consistency group snapshot
virtual disk for which you want to create a logical
mapping. Enclose the consistency group snapshot
virtual disk name in double quotation marks (" ").
host
The name of a host to which you want to create a
logical mapping. Enclose the host name in double
quotation marks (" ").
hostGroup
The name of a host group to which you want to
create a logical mapping. Enclose the host group
name in double quotation marks (" "). If you use the
defaultGroup keyword, do not enclose it in
quotation marks.
Notes
A host is a computer that is attached to the storage array and accesses the virtual disks on the storage
array through the host ports. You can define specific mappings to an individual host. You also can assign
the host to a host group that shares access to one or more virtual disks.
A host group is an optional topological element that you can define if you want to designate a collection
of hosts that share access to the same virtual disks. The host group is a logical entity. Define a host group
only if you have two or more hosts that share access to the same virtual disks.
Create Disk Group
Description
This command creates either a free-capacity disk group or a disk group with one virtual disk when you
enter a set of assigned physical disks.
