Stopping the use of paths to an external LU by specifying a
local array's port (Disconnect Paths)
To stop using the path between the local array and external array by specifying the port of the local
array, select the Port Operation tree. The Port Operation list appears.
1. In the LU Operation pane, select the Port Operation tab. The Port Operation tree and Port Operation
list appear.
2. In the Port Operation tree, select External (the port attribute for the external array connection). The
local array's external ports appear in the Port Operation list.
3. In the Port Operation list, right-click the port of the local array you want to stop using, and select
Disconnect Paths.
Selected items appear in blue italics in the Port tree and Port list. The contents of the setting appear
in the Preset list. To check the setting details, right-click the setting in the Preset list, and select Detail.
To cancel the setting, right-click the setting in the Preset list, and select Delete.
4. Click Apply. A confirmation message appears.
5. Click OK.
Restoring paths to an external LU by specifying a local array's
port (Check Paths)
To restore the path between the local array and external array by specifying the local array's port, select
the Port Operation tree. The Port Operation list appears.
NOTE:
The path must be in a status that can be restored.
1. In the LU Operation pane, select the Port tab. The Port Operation tree and Port Operation list appear.
2. In the Port tree, select External (the port attribute for the external array connection) or the local
array port.
• If you select External, the local array port setting with the External attribute appears in the
Port Operation list.
• If you select the local array port, connection information about the path between the selected
port and external array appears.
3. In the Port Operation list, right-click the port of the local array for which you want to restore the
path, and select Check Paths.
Selected items appear in blue italics in the Port Operation tree and Port Operation list. The contents
of the setting appear in the Preset list. To check the setting details, right-click the setting in the Preset

Deleting external LU mappings (Delete LU)
You can start deleting external LU mappings from the LU Operation pane. To delete the external LU
mapping, select Delete LU from the shortcut menu displayed in the LU Operation pane. Although you can
use the Delete LU command to delete the mapping between an internal LDEV and external LU, you cannot
use this command to reliably delete data in the external LU or internal LDEV.
