Setting alternate paths for external LUs
Before using an external LU mapped as an internal LDEV, you must set at least one alternate path
from the internal LDEV to the external LU (likely by way of an alternate controller). The number of
alternate paths set is the same as the number specified on the Add LU or Auto Map Setting window
when the LU was mapped as the internal LDEV. For more information, see
Use the Path Setting window (
) to add and define alternate paths to the paths set at mapping
or change the alternate paths.
NOTE:
You can add or delete alternate paths by selecting multiple external LUs at one time. For more
information, see
Adding alternate paths by selecting multiple external LUs (Add Paths)
alternate paths by selecting multiple external LUs (Delete Paths)
CAUTION:
You cannot delete all the current alternate paths to substitute newly-added alternate paths for them
in one operation. To replace all the current alternate paths with newly-added alternate paths, you
need to perform more than two operations and leave at least one current alternate path setting
when you perform the first operation.
Use the Path Setting window (
) to define alternate paths.
You can perform the following operations on the Path Setting window:
• Defining alternate paths
• Changing a defined alternate path priority
• Canceling alternate path definitions
• Changing alternate paths
• Replacing all the alternate paths with newly-added alternate paths
The Path Setting window displays information about external arrays and the condition of paths set
from the internal LDEV to the external LU.
