Stopping the use of paths to an external LU by specifying an external
array's WWN (Disconnect Paths)

To stop using the path between the local array and the external array by specifying the WWN
that identifies the external array's port, select the WWN tree to display the WWN list.

NOTE:

The Disconnect Paths command is not for the actual disconnection of the path to the

external LU. You must confirm that some normal paths to the external LU are set, other than the
path for which you plan to execute the Disconnect Paths command.

1.

In the LU Operation pane, select the WWN tab. The WWN tree and WWN list appear.

2.

In the WWN tree, select the product name of the connected external array. The WWN of all
ports that are connected to the local array and are used appear in the WWN list.

3.

In the WWN list, select WWN you want to stop using. When you select the WWN identifying
the external array's port in the list, you can stop the use of all ports of the local array connected
to the port at one time.

4.

Right-click, and select Disconnect Paths. Selected items appear in blue italics in the WWN tree
and WWN list. The contents of the setting appears in the Preset list.

To check the setting details, right-click the setting in the Preset list, and select Detail. To cancel
the setting, right-click the setting in the Preset list, and select Delete.

5.

Click Apply. A confirmation message appears.

6.

Click OK.

Restoring paths to an external LU by specifying an external array's WWN
(Check Paths)

To restore the path between the local array and external array by specifying the WWN that
identifies the external array's port, select the WWN tree to display the WWN list.

NOTE:

The path must be in a status that can be restored.

1.

In the LU Operation pane, select the WWN tab. The WWN tree and WWN list appear.

2.

In the WWN tree, select the product name of the connected external array or the WWN
identifying the external array's port.

If you select the product name of the connected external array, all WWNs that are
connected to the local array and are used appear in the WWN list.

If you select the external array's WWN, connection information about the paths between
the selected WWN and local array ports appear in the WWN list.

3.

In the WWN list, select the WWN for which you want to restore the path.

If you selected the product name of the connected external array in the WWN tree, select
the WWN identifying the external array's port in the WWN list. In this case, you can
restore the path of all ports of the local array connected to the WWN at one time.

If you selected the external array's WWN in the WWN tree, select the path between the
selected WWN and the port of the local array. In this case, you can restore the selected
path to the port of the local array individually.

4.

Right click, and select Check Paths. Selected items appear in blue italics in the WWN tree and
WWN list. The contents of the setting appears in the Preset list.

To check the setting details, right-click the setting in the Preset list, and select Detail. To cancel
the setting, right-click the setting in the Preset list, and select Delete.

5.
