Modify LUN: Mapped to Specific Hosts

Remap the LUN to restrict access to one or more specific SAN hosts, or map additional hosts to the LUN.

To restrict access to a LUN, map it to one or more specific SAN hosts. Map additional hosts to extend access to more SAN hosts.

  2. Select the FC Access Protocol.
  3. Click the Only selected hosts option.
  4. In the Ports Masked for this LUN table, you can select Yes or No in the Masked column to determine whether a port should be masked.
  5. In the LUN Controller Assignment section, two Controller settings appear. The Current Controller field is informational only. From the Assigned Controller drop-down list, select a CU or select auto assign.
    The system auto-assigns the LUN to an available Controller.

    Select values for the LUN mapping fields:
