Associating a storage pool entry with a logical server

When you create a logical server, you can select a storage pool entry as the storage configuration
for the logical server by performing the following steps from the Create

Logical Server...

storage configuration screen.

1.

Select a storage pool entry from the drop-down menu. Only entries whose operating system
matches the operating system specified for the logical server will be available for selection.
The drop-down menu is empty if no pool entries have been previously defined, or if you
have not checked Ready next to a server WWN in the Manage Server WWNs table on the
SAN Storage Pool Entry

screen.

2.

Press the Insert Pool Entry button to assign the selected storage pool entry to the storage
configuration for the logical server. After you insert a pool entry into the logical server
storage configuration, you can view the entry by pressing View in the Actions column of
the Storage Entries table.
