For XP1024/XP128 Disk Array, RAID Manager supports four types of port names for host groups:
• Specifying the port name without a host group:
CL1-A CL1-An where n unit ID for multiple RAID
• Specifying the port without a host group:
CL1-A-g where g : host group CL1-An-g where n-g : host group=g on CL1-A in unit ID=n
The following ports can only be specified for XP12000 Disk Array/XP10000 Disk Array and
XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array:

• Target ID: Defines the SCSI/fibre target ID number of the physical volume on the specified
port. See “Fibre/FCoE-to-SCSI address conversion ” (page 52) for further information about
fibre address conversion.
• LU#: Defines the SCSI/fibre logical unit number (LU#) of the physical volume on the specified
target ID and port.
For fibre channel, if the TID and LU# displayed on the system are different from the TID on the fibre
address conversion table, then use the TID and LU# indicated by the raidscan command in the
RAID Manager configuration file.
• MU# for Business Copy/Business Copy/Snapshot: Defines the mirror unit number (0 - 2) if
using redundant mirror for the identical LU on Business Copy. If this number is omitted it is
assumed to be zero (0). The cascaded mirroring of the S-VOL is expressed as virtual volumes
using the mirror descriptors (MU#1-2) in the configuration definition file. The MU#0 of a mirror
descriptor is used for connection of the S-VOL. The mirror descriptor (MU#0-2) can be used
on Business Copy and Business Copy/Snapshot. MU#3-63 can only be used on Business
Copy/Snapshot.
