Configuring a Standard Data Replication Manager Solution

T 19. Run the HP StorageWorks Install Agent, if required:
#cd /usr/stgwks2
# ./stgwks_aix.sh
Choose Option 1.
T 20. Reestablish volume groups, logical volumes, and file systems with the following
commands:
#varyonvg (volume_group_name)
#mount /dev/(logical_volume__name)
T 21. Reestablish clustering services (if required).
T 22. Check the status of the HBAs periodically.
Connect the Host to the SAN
Use your established cabling policy to connect the host to the Fibre Channel switches:
T 1. Use 50-micron, multimode fiber optic cable to connect one adapter of each pair to the top
fabric.
T 2. Use 50-micron, multimode fiber optic cable to connect the other adapter of each pair to the
bottom fabric.
Example: If there are four adapters in a server, the first and third should be connected to
the top fabric; and the second and fourth adapters should be connected to the bottom
fabric.
Rename the Host Connections
To better identify which hosts you are working with, HP recommends that you rename the host
connections, using a meaningful connection name for each. Each HBA appears as a
connection. An HBA can be identified by its WWN, which you recorded when you installed
the HBAs, and which appears in the connection description.
Initially, each connection is named !NEWCONxx. It is much easier to track connections if the
connection names are meaningful, like “HostB1.”
Note: If you use scripting to automate failover and failback operations, do not use dashes
(hyphens) as separators in your naming convention—use underscores instead. Dashes are not
allowed by the Perl scripting language.
T 1. We suggest that you use the worksheet in Figure 19 on page 76 when renaming your hosts.
You may reproduce this worksheet as needed.
T 2. When you have completed the worksheet, rename the connections:
RENAME !NEWCONxx TargetHostConnectionNamex
RENAME !NEWCONxx TargetHostConnectionNamey
Example: rename !NEWCONxx HostB1
Example: rename !NEWCONxx HostB2
