Installing SWCC Client and Creating Your First Virtual Disk
This section contains instructions for installing StorageWorks Command Console
(SWCC), configuring the HSG80 array controller for Windows NT, Windows
2000 and Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) operation, and creating your first virtual
disk.
Note: For more information, use the online HELP in the SWCC Storage and CLI
Windows.
This section provides the instructions to:
■ Install the HSG80 StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC) software.
■ Launch Command Console Client.
■ Establish communications with the HSG80 controller over the serial port.
■ Configure the HSG80 controller for Windows NT, Windows 2000, and
Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) operation.
■ Create your first virtual disk.
Connection Methods
SWCC connection methods include:
■ Serial
■ SCSI
■ Network
Serial Port Connection
This method is required to set up your controller and create your first virtual disk.
This chapter shows you how to use Command Line Interpreter (CLI) to disable
CCL in SCSI-2. You also use CLI to create an initial virtual disk that enables
subsequent SWCC communications using one of the other two methods. The
serial port method provides a local, direct connection to your storage array.
Note: The rest of this chapter describes controller set up assuming you will retain
SCSI-2 mode and disable CCL.
