For an OpenVMS server host, use a numerical value from 1 to 32,767 (see “Set UUID
Window (When a OpenVMS Server Host is Used)” (page 87) ).
•
For a server host other than OpenVMS, use up to 64 ASCII characters (letters, numerals,
and symbols) for a UUID (see
“Set UUID Window (When a Server Host Other Than
OpenVMS is Used)” (page 88) ). The following rules apply to UUIDs:
◦ The following characters cannot be used for UUIDs:
\ / : , ; * ? " < > |
◦ A space character cannot be used for the first and the last characters of a UUID.
◦ UUIDs are case-sensitive. For example, hp and HP are different UUIDs.
NOTE: Definition informations about devices set by LUN Manager are very important
information to configure the system (for example, LUNs, LDKC:CU:LDEV, or UUID). HP
recommends that you to make a correspondence table such as
“An Example of a
Correspondence Table for Definition Informations About Devices” (page 87) .
When changing the server host OS from HP-UX to Open VMS, or from Open VMS to HP-UX,
the same UUID cannot be used continuously. Clear the setting of UUID, and then set the proper
UUID for a server host, respectively. For more informations about clearing the setting of UUID,
see
“Clearing the setting of UUID” (page 88) .
