Mapping a Host Group to a Volume

Before you can map a host group to one or more volumes, the host group must have at least one host associated to at least one initiator.

When you explicitly map a host group to a volume, the management software removes the host group and specified volume from the default storage domain and creates a separate storage domain.

To map a host group to one or more volumes:

  1. Click Sun StorEdge 6130 Configuration Service.
  2. The Array Summary page is displayed.

  3. Click the array on which you want to map a host group to a volume.
  4. The Volume Summary page for that array is displayed.

  5. Click Physical Storage > Host Groups.
  6. The Host Group Summary page is displayed.

  7. Click the name of the host group that you want to map.
  8. The Host Group Details page is displayed.

  9. Click Map.
  10. The Map Host Group page is displayed.

  11. Select the check box next to the names of one or more volumes that you want to map to this host group.
  12. Specify the logical unit number (LUN) (0 to 255) for each volume that you want to map to this host group.
  13. Click OK.
  14. The management software maps the volume to the host group and displays the Host Group Details page with the updated information.
