HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP operating system configuration guide for Tru64 UNIX XP24000, XP12000, XP10000, v01 (A5951-96066, June 2007)

Verifying host recognition of disk array devices
Use the hwmgr show scsi command at the UNIX prompt to see the list of new disk array devices.
The device files are created automatically in Tru64 UNIX during system startup. Device files are created
for each logical unit.
1. Verify the character-type device files have been automatically created:
Example — Tru64 5.1B
# file /dev/rdisk/dsk*
2. Verify the block-type device files have been automatically created:
Example — Tru64 5.1B
# file /dev/disk/dsk*
Configuring disk devices
Configure disks in the disk array using the same procedure for configuring any new disk on the host.
This includes the following procedures:
1. Writing the partition labels
2. Creating the file systems
3. Creating mount directories
4. Mounting the file systems
5. Verifying the file systems
6. Setting and verifying automatic mounting at bootup
7. Checking path failover
Creating scripts to configure all devices at once may save you considerable time.
