Compaq StorageWorks HSG60 ACS Solution Software V8.6 for Compaq Tru64 UNIX Installation and Configuration Guide

Configuration Procedures 5–15
Configuring Devices
The disks on the device bus of the HSG60 can be configured manually or with the
CONFIG utility. The CONFIG utility is easier. Invoke CONFIG with the following
command:
RUN CONFIG
CONFIG takes about 2 minutes to discover and to map the configuration of a completely
populated storage system.
Configuring a Stripeset
1. Create the stripeset by adding its name to the controller's list of storagesets and by
specifying the disk drives it contains. Use the following syntax:
ADD STRIPESET STRIPESET-NAME DISKNNNNN DISKNNNNN .......
2. Initialize the stripeset, specifying any desired switches:
INITIALIZE STRIPESET-NAME SWITCHES
See “Initialization Switches” on page 2–23 for a description of the initialization
switches.
3. Verify the stripeset configuration:
SHOW STRIPESET-NAME
4. Assign the stripeset a unit number to make it accessible by the hosts. See “Assigning
Unit Numbers and Unit Qualifiers” on page 5–19.
For example:
The commands to create Stripe1, a stripeset consisting of three disks (DISK10000,
DISK20000, and DISK10100) and having a chunksize of 128:
ADD STRIPESET STRIPE1 DISK10000 DISK20000 DISK10100
INITIALIZE STRIPE1 CHUNKSIZE=128
SHOW STRIPE1
Configuring a Mirrorset
1. Create the mirrorset by adding its name to the controller's list of storagesets and by
specifying the disk drives it contains. Optionally, you can append mirrorset switch
values:
ADD MIRRORSET MIRRORSET-NAME DISKNNNNN DISKNNNNN SWITCHES
