Deleting virtual disks – HP SAN Virtualization Services Platform User Manual
Page 120

By default, all virtual disks are assigned an OUID of 0, which is regarded as having no OUID
assignment.
•
To effectively assign an OUID, you must change the OUID value from 0 to any other value between
1 and 32767.
•
After assigning an OUID value, you can change the OUID value at any time.
•
To effectively remove an OUID assignment, change the virtual disk’s OUID value to 0.
You can only change the OUID for one virtual disk at a time.
NOTE:
Keep track of OUID assignments. SVSP does not perform verification for redundancy when OUIDs
are changed.
To change an OUID for a virtual disk:
1.
In the navigation tree, expand the Entities node.
2.
Click the Virtual Disk node. The virtual disks list appears in the list area.
3.
Right-click the virtual disk for which you want to change the OUID.
4.
Select Manage > Set OpenVMS UID. The Set OpenVMS UID screen appears.
5.
Change the assigned OUID value.
6.
Click Next. A confirmation screen appears.
7.
Click Finish. The virtual disk’s OUID is changed.
