Disk Drive Enclosure Connections
When you have finished using the FCSA configuration form, place it in your 
Documentation Packet. For more information about the Documentation Packet, see the 
NonStop S-Series Planning and Configuration Guide or the NonStop NS-Series 
Planning Guide.
Disk Drive Enclosure Connections
Print out the configuration forms in Appendix B, FCSA Configuration Forms for Fibre 
Channel Disk Connections. When you connect the FCSA to a disk drive enclosure or 
to a chain of disk drive enclosures, you should: 
•
Record the shelf number (or numbers) and circle the bay numbers available for 
incorporation into configured SCF disk volumes. 
MIRRORPORTNAME number
MBACKUPPORTNAME number
The attribute values specify the WWNs of the 
mirror primary and backup Fibre Channel 
ports on the ESS. Obtain this information 
from the ESS administrator. (The choices 
should be guided by the overall fault-tolerant 
strategy for the storage subsystem 
configuration.) You can have 256 mirror port 
and mirror backup ports on each FCSA SAC.
PRIMARYLUN number* The attribute value the primary and disk 
volumes in the ESS for this DISK object. This 
information must be provided by the ESS 
administrator and the choices should be 
guided by the overall fault-tolerant strategy 
for the storage subsystem configuration. You 
can have 256 primary LUNs on each FCSA 
SAC.
MIRRORLUN number* The attribute value specifies the primary and 
mirror disk volumes for this DISK object. This 
information must be provided by the ESS 
administrator and the choices should be 
guided by the overall fault-tolerant strategy 
for the storage subsystem configuration. You 
can have 256 primary and mirror LUNs on 
each FCSA SAC. 
Note. You can add 256 DISK objects on each FCSA SAC.
Table 2-3. SCF ADD DISK Command Attribute Names for ESS 
Connections (page 2 of 2)
SCF Attribute Name/ Attribute Value Description
* Command View used by the FC switch and ESS administrators refers to the LUN number 
in hexadecimal format whereas SCF refers to the LUN number in decimal format. Both the 
Command View and SCF refer to the WWNs in hexadecimal format.
