Caution
To assign an appropriate host response to a created host group, refer to "Configuration Guide -Server
Connection-" for each OS type. The host response configures the operation mode that is appropriate for
the host. For details about the recommended patterns of host responses, refer to "Add Host Response" in
"ETERNUS Web GUI User's Guide". If an appropriate host response is not configured to the host group, the
path may not be switched correctly or the volume may not be recognized correctly.
The procedure to create an FC host group is as follows:
1 Click [Add FC/FCoE Host Group] in [Action].
The [Add FC/FCoE Host Group] screen appears.
