Resource names and UNC formats
Resources in a SAN are identified in several ways, including UNC format. UNC (Universal or
Uniform Naming Convention) identifies a resource in terms of its hierarchical location in a network.
See the following for name and UNC formats: DR groups , Enabled hosts , Host volumes , Storage
systems , and Virtual disks (storage volumes)
Resource names in job commands
When you initially enter a command in a job, the command's resource arguments are displayed
as %variable% names, for example:
CreateDiskDevice (%storvol_unc_name%, %host_name%, 0, READ_WRITE)
When selecting a specific resource from an Editing Task menu, the resource names are presented
in a UNC format, or other format, as appropriate for the resource. If you enter a resource name
from the keyboard, you must use the appropriate format.
IMPORTANT: UNC names in job commands are case sensitive.
After selection or entry of arguments, the command is displayed with resource names in quotes,
for example:
CreateDiskDevice ( "\\ArrayA2\Cats", "HostA6", 12, READ_WRITE )
Name formats and examples for resource types follow.
DR groups
Example Name format (UNC)
\\ArrayA2\DrGrpPets
Identifies the DR group named DrGrpPets on the storage
array named ArrayA2. \\array name\path\DR group name
Enabled hosts
The job editor and command validation accept these formats.
Example Name format (other)
HostA6 Computer network name
HostA6.SiteA.corp Fully qualified network name
88.15.42.101 IP address
Each example identifies an enabled host using an accepted
format.
Host volumes
Applies to standard host volumes, volume groups, logical volumes, and host volume components
such as partitions and slices.
OS specific example Name format (UNC)
\\HostA2\/home/cats AIX \\host name\path\host volume name
\\HostA2\/users/cats HP-UX
\\HostA2\/var/cats Linux
