Registering hosts in host groups

NOTE:

If you are configuring a NAS environment, you do not need to follow the procedures described in this

section. For instructions, see

Associating host groups or iSCSI targets to logical volumes

.

To set LU paths, you must register hosts in host groups. For example, if HP-UX and Windows hosts are

connected to a port, you must register the HP-UX and Windows hosts separately in two different host

groups.
If you are configuring a Fibre Channel environment, follow the instructions in

Registering hosts in host

groups (when configuring Fibre Channel environments)

. If you are configuring an iSCSI environment,

follow the instructions in

Registering hosts in iSCSI targets (when configuring iSCSI environments)

.

Registering hosts in host groups (when configuring Fibre Channel environments)

When registering a host, you must specify the host bus adapter's WWN. If you are unsure of the host bus

adapter's WWN, see

Finding an open-system host's World Wide Name (WWN)

.

When registering a host, you can assign a nickname to the host bus adapter. If you assign a nickname,

you can easily identify each host bus adapter in the LUN Manager pane. Although WWNs are also

used to identify host bus adapters, the nickname you assign is more helpful because you can name host

bus adapters after the host installation site or the host owners.
