Update Switch Zones

The switch zones created at the target site must be updated with the host connection

information (refer to Chapter 6, “Configuring the Optional Advanced DRM Solutions,” for

detailed information on creating and updating switch zones):

I 1. On the top fabric, add the host connection to the zone that contains port 1 of the top

initiator controller.

I 2. On the bottom fabric, add the host connection to the zone that contains port 1 of the

bottom initiator controller.

Enable Access to the Hosts at the Initiator Site

I 1. The initiator units must have access to the hosts. Enable access with the following

command:

SET UnitName ENABLE_ACCESS_PATH=InitiatorHostConnectionNamex,

InitiatorHostConnectionNamey

Example: set UnitName enable_access_path=HostA1,HostA2

Note: There must be two paths per host. Repeat this sequence for each host.

I 2. After you have enabled host access to units, issue the following command from the

NetWare server console prompt:

SCAN FOR NEW DEVICES

I 3. Use ConsoleOne to create traditional partitions and volumes, or use Novell Storage

Services (NSS) partitions, pools, and logical volumes on the newly-created storage.

I 4. From the server console prompt, type:

MOUNT ALL (for traditional volumes)

MOUNT VolumeName (for NSS logical volumes)

I 5. You are now ready to run Secure Path Manager from your Windows NT or Windows 2000

client machine. Click: Start > Programs > Secure Path > SPM. Specify the server and

password.

I 6. The Secure Path Manager screen appears. Click each drive icon. The device properties

appear in the right pane. Ensure that each drive can be moved successfully between

controllers by right-clicking the icon and selecting Move to Other Controller.

Your NetWare host is now configured for DRM. Follow this procedure for each NetWare host

present at the initiator site. After configuring the initiator site hosts, go to the section titled

“Additional Host Configuration,” on page 144.
