10.3 VTL Configuration
Remote Hosts
Use the Remote Hosts page to discover and add Fibre Channel hosts to the available host
list for the ETERNUS CS800.
You must configure a host before you can assign it to a new host access group
(see "Adding a Remote Host Access Group" on page 235).
CAUTION!
If you are connecting the ETERNUS CS800 directly to a host without using a Fibre
Channel switch, you must know the WWPN connecting to each ETERNUS CS800
port. If you do not specify this information, the virtual medium changer and tape drives
will not display on the device manager.
To access the Remote Hosts page, on the Remote Host Access page, click the Remote
Hosts tab (see "Remote Hosts Page" on page 238).
Figure 156: Remote Hosts Page
To add a host:
1. Click Discover Remote Hosts to list all hosts that are known to the ETERNUS CS800.
A host is made known to the ETERNUS CS800 if you enter the host ID on this page, or if
the host logs on to one or more Fibre Channel target ports.
If you do not see the world wide name (WWN) of the host, make sure the host is
connected to a Fibre Channel port on the ETERNUS CS800 and click Discover Hosts
again.
The Backpanel Locations section displays a graphical representation of the Fibre
Channel and Ethernet ports as they appear on the rear of the system.
A mapped (green) status indicates the host is currently logged on to one or
more Fibre Channel target ports.
