Hi,
I am new to connecting Solaris based servers to SAN. We are in the process
of purchasing new EMC DMX storage and Qlogic/Emulex HBAs.
I have some newbie questions and hope Gurus help me in them:
1- What is the necessary Solaris packages to be installed to connect to SAN
?
2- How I know which HBA in the server the fiber cable is connected to ? (I
have c2, c3, c4how can I know which HBA the cable is plugged in ?
3- How to Check HBA-switch connectivity status? How can I know if the link
is up or not ?
4- What should be done from the storage/SAN switch before working on the
host side ? (Zone, masking )
5- What are the necessary changes in the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file ?
6- What about the HBA configuration file lpfc.conf, qlc.conf ? Any needed
changes ?
7- How to know the WWID of the HBA ?
8- Is the disk name "c10t60020F2000000CAA3DABB7B10001D2D4d0s2 function in
SAN switch port and LUN ID ? What is the impact of changing switch port ,
LUN number on the storage on disk naming ?
9- What is the PWWN and NWWN?
10-Any good books or reference that fully explain Solaris-SAN connectivity ?
I will definitely summarize.
Thanks.
Levi
