Figure 40: Command View EVA accessing Add host tab
Figure 41 shows adding a host via Command View EVA. The HBA Port World Wide Name can be directly entered
in the Basic Settings section, along with a name and the desired operating system. The Comments field can capture
relevant information. The name field might be a hostname selected by the system administrator to be affiliated with
the OS and application workload intended for this logical server, or another general name. As per the earlier naming
conventions, it should not be affiliated with a physical location, as the initiator WWN will migrate with the logical
server.

Once the host has been created (with the HBA port WWNs), the storage volume (Vdisk) can be presented, as shown
in Figures 42 through 44. Figure 44 shows the created virtual disk (named Exchange Server Boot) and access to the
Presentation tab from the Vdisk Properties page.
