Click the [Continue] button to continue registering FC hosts.
• This function is only displayed when the "Use "Add Host"" checkbox is selected for the "Function to Add
Host" field in "Web GUI Settings". This checkbox is not selected (this function is not displayed) by default.
Refer to "1.4.4 Setup Subsystem Parameters" (page 39)
for details.
• Note that this function does not create a host group. The ETERNUS DX also has a function that creates
new host groups to register hosts as its members. Refer to "4.2.2 Add iSCSI Host Group" (page 372)
for
details.
• Hosts that are registered with this function can belong to multiple host groups. However, only one LUN
group can be allocated to host and port combinations when configuring host affinity.
• Refer to "FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS DX Configuration Guide -Server Connection-" for each OS type to assign
an appropriate host response to the host that is to be registered. A host response has a recommended
patterns which has been prepared for each OS type. Refer to "Recommended patterns of host responses"
(page 472) for details.
If an appropriate host response is not configured to the host, the path may not be switched correctly or
the volume may not be recognized correctly.
• Unlike ETERNUS Web GUI, ETERNUS CLI can register two iSCSI hosts that have the same iSCSI name by
setting an IP address for one of these iSCSI hosts and by not setting an IP address for the other iSCSI host.
However, if iSCSI hosts are registered in the ETERNUS DX in this way, iSCSI hosts cannot be added using
ETERNUS Web GUI. Avoid this configuration when using ETERNUS Web GUI and ETERNUS CLI together. If
both iSCSI hosts already exist, use ETERNUS CLI to specify an IP address for the iSCSI host without the IP
address.
