NonStop NS14000 Planning Guide (H06.10+)

Default Naming Conventions
With a few exceptions, default naming conventions are not necessary for the modular resources
that make up Integrity NonStop NS14000 systems. In most cases, users can name their resources
at will and use the appropriate management applications and tools to find the location of the
resource.
However, default naming conventions for certain resources simplify creation of the initial
configuration files and automatic generation of the names of the modular resources. When
autoconfigure mode is set to ON for storage subsystems, the preconfigured default naming
convention is used to generate the names of the Fibre Channel disk drives. Preconfigured default
resource names are:
