Map the LUN to one or more SAN hosts to allow only those specific hosts to access the LUN.
When you need to restrict access to a LUN, such as when the LUN contains sensitive data, map access to the LUN to a specific host or group of hosts.
- Click the Mapping tab.
- Select the FC Access Protocol.
- Click the Only selected hosts option.
- Select a Controller in the LUN Controller Assignment section.
Two storage
Controller fields appear. For new LUNs, the
Current Controller field is not available. From the
Assigned Controller drop-down list, select a
Controller or select
auto assign.
If you select auto assign, the system determines the Controller. You can modify the value or select a new value after the LUN has been created.
- To create a new host mapping, click Create and select values for the LUN mapping fields:
Host Name: Select the host to associate to the LUN.
LUN Number: Select the number to assign to the LUN for the selected host and click OK. This number must be unique for that particular host. It does not need to be unique across all hosts.
- (Optional) Click OK and Continue to select additional hosts to map to the LUN.
- In the Ports Masked for this LUN table, indicate which ports you want masked by selecting Yes or No in the Masked column.
- (Optional) Click OK to create the LUN now.
Clicking OK saves the LUN with the LUN-to-host mapping and any attributes you set in the Quality of Service and Data Protection tabs.
After you have defined the host mappings for a
LUN, you must next define Data Protection settings for the LUN.
