9. Click OK. The settings are applied to the disk array.
The next step is to register hosts to the appropriate host group.
CAUTION: Do not select options other than those listed in Table 9 .
Registering hosts in host groups
Before you can 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 them separately in two different host groups.
When registering a host, you can assign a nickname to the host bus adapter. If you assign a nickname,
you will be able to easily identify each host bus adapter in the LUN Manager main pane. Although
WWNs are also used to identify each host bus adapter, a nickname is more helpful because you can
name host bus adapters after the host installation site or the host owners.
When using nicknames, note the following:
• A nickname can consist of up to 32 ASCII characters (letters, numerals, and symbols). You cannot use
the following characters for nicknames:
\ / : , ; * ? " < > | ~
• You cannot use the space character for the first or the last nickname character.
• Nicknames are case sensitive. For example, hp and HP are different nicknames.
To register hosts in a host group:
1. Start LUN Manager, and display the LUN Manager pane ( Figure 7 ).
