Configure the Fibre Channel Host
Introduction to Configuring the Fibre Channel Host
To set up Fibre Channel connections, ensure that the host system and storage system have two
Fibre Channel connections. You can configure the Fibre Channel host if you have only one
connection, but if that connection stops functioning, the host will not be able to access (read from
or write data to) the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system.
For more information about setting up Fibre Channel connections, see the HP 3PAR Windows
Implementation Guide.
To access this document, go to the HP Support Center site at: http://www.hp.com/go/hpsc and
enter your product name in the Find an HP product by search field.
CAUTION: The Fibre Channel Host Configuration wizard might require a reboot of the host
system. If the host system cannot be rebooted at this time, use the Fibre Channel Host Configuration
wizard to configure your Fibre Channel connections when a possible reboot is more convenient.
Configuring Local and Remote Connections
You can use SmartStart to do the following:
•
Connect the local host (the Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2012 server into
which you inserted the SmartStart media) to the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system
•
Connect a remote host (any Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2012 server other
than the Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2012 server into which you inserted
the SmartStart media) to the HP 3PAR storage system
To connect to and configure a remote host system:
◦ You must be able to use the same ID and password to gain administrator access to both
the local host and the remote host. If you cannot use the same login credentials, you must
insert the SmartStart media into the remote host and configure the machine as a local
host.
◦ If you have set up domains on your local host system and plan to configure a remote host
system, that remote host must be in the same domain as the local host.
