7. In the LUN Manager main pane, click Apply. A confirmation message appears.

The next step is to register hosts to the appropriate host group.
CAUTION: Do not select options other than those listed in Table 11 .
Registering hosts in host groups
NOTE: If you are configuring a NAS environment, skip this section.
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 (or iSCSI names) 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 eight 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. In the LU Path tree, locate the port the host group belongs to and verify that LUN security is enabled.
NOTE: If the port icon has a key ( ), LUN security is enabled.
If LUN security is not enabled, right-click the port and select LUN Security: OFF->ON in the shortcut
menu.
