FC Configuration Procedures

This chapter describes procedures to configure a subsystem that uses Fibre

Channel (FC) fabric topology. In fabric topology, the controller connects to its

hosts through switches.

The following information is included in this chapter:

■ Establishing a Local Connection, page 156

■ Setting Up a Single Controller, page 157

■ Setting Up a Controller Pair, page 164

■ Configuring Devices, page 171

■ Configuring Storage Containers, page 171

■ Assigning Unit Numbers and Unit Qualifiers, page 177

■ Configuration Options, page 178

Use the command line interpreter (CLI) or StorageWorks Command Console

(SWCC) to configure the subsystem. This chapter uses CLI to connect to the

controller. To use SWCC for configuration, see the SWCC online help for

assistance.

Note: These configuration procedures assume that controllers and cache modules are

installed in a fully functional and populated enclosure and that the PCMCIA cards are

installed.

To install a controller or cache module and the PCMCIA card, see the HP

StorageWorks HSG60 and HSG80 Array Controller and Array Controller

Software Maintenance and Service Guide.
