Sun Blade Zone Manager CLI: Targets and Properties

The Oracle ILOM CMM CLI provides access to zoning targets and properties under the /STORAGE/sas_zoning namespace.

SAS Zoning Properties
Values
Default
Description
zone_management_state=
disabled |enabled
Disabled
When set to disabled, the Sun Blade Zone Manager is unable to manage the SAS-2 chassis storage resources.
When set to enabled, the Sun Blade Zone Manager provides template-based or custom zoning capabilities for chassis-installed SAS-2 resources.
reset_password_action=
true
When set to true, the in-band management zoning password on the CMM is set to factory defaults (all zeros).
reset_access_action=
true
When set to true, the storage resource allocation parameters currently saved on the CMM are set to factory defaults.

When zoning is enabled, blades and NEMs that are SAS-2 capable appear as CLI targets under /STORAGE/sas_zoning. For example:

-> show /STORAGE/sas_zoning
 
     Targets
       BL0
       BL6
       BL7
       BL8
       BL9
       NEM0
       NEM1
 
    Properties
      zone_management_state = enabled
      reset_password_action = (Cannot show property)
      reset_access_action = (Cannot show property)
 
    Commands:
       cd
       set
       show

Note - NEM0 and NEM1 targets appear in the Zone Manager when these NEMs are installed; however, external SAS connections in the Sun Blade Zone Manager are not supported at this time.

SAS-2 capable storage devices on a blade server appear as targets under sas_zoning/BLn. For example:

-> show /STORAGE/sas_zoning/BL9
 
  Targets:
    HDD0
    HDD2
    HDD3
    HDD5

The SAS zoning properties that are available under the blade target (BLn) or storage device (HDDn) target include:

Blade and Storage Properties

add_host_access=
/BLn/HDDn
Use the add_host_access= property under the /sas_zoning/BLn/HDDn target to allocate storage to a CPU blade server.
